The Henry Ford Health System in Detroit was decided as a late-stage check for the study of the modern COVID-19 vaccine, the National Institutes of Health said.
Henry Ford, called the “MNSA-1273 Coronavirus Efficacy Study” or COVE, said he was recruiting volunteers on the double-blind randomized phase 3 test to determine whether a two-dose vaccine prevents COVID-19 infection.
Approximately 90 fitness systems in the United States seek to recruit a total of 30,000 volunteers to participate in the Study of the Modern Vaccine. Volunteers can register at henryford.com/moderna-vaccine.
“Henry Ford Health System is proud to be concerned about fighting this fatal virus,” Adnan Munkarah, M.D., clinical director of Henry Ford, said in a statement. “As one of the region’s leading educational medical centers with more than $100 million in annual funding, Henry Ford is involved in many COVID-19 efforts with partners around the world.”
If successful, it is not known when the Modern vaccine will be available for distribution. Some say that in early 2021 for some populations, however, top experts do not create it until next summer. Test study subjects will continue to be monitored for two years.
The first two stages of the exam involved more than six hundred participants and showed that the vaccine was safe, Henry Ford said. Phase 2 showed that the vaccine produces antibodies; Phase 3 will determine whether the vaccine will oppose coVID-19.
“Our most productive hope of controlling COVID-19 is with a vaccine,” Marcus Zervos, M.D., leader of infectious diseases at Henry Ford, said in a statement. “The modern vaccine turns out to be very promising. In the initial studies that have been conducted so far, it turns out that it has produced protective antibodies at the point of an herbal infection.”
Worldwide, more than 165 vaccines are being developed, adding 27 in human trials, according to the New York Times Coronavirus Vaccine Tracker. Moderna’s trial was the first to initiate human trials.
Another team of corporations looking to expand a vaccine, Pfizer Inc. and Biontech, also said Monday that their vaccine studies are progressing with 30,000 control subjects from Argentina, Brazil and Germany. Corporations said they plan to seek a regulatory review starting in October 2020. If successful, they plan to supply up to one hundred million doses by the end of 2020 and up to 1.3 billion doses by the end of 2021.
Pfizer has invested in your Kalamazoo to prepare you for the COVID-19 vaccine, if your vaccine is effective.
In Henry Ford’s trials, the researchers said, test participants will have a 50% chance of receiving the test vaccine or a placebo, a sterile saline solution that does not have an active vaccine.
Anyone 18 years of age or older who is not immunocompromised or pregnant, or who is pregnant, may volunteer for the study, provided that they have not gained COVID-19 or any other vaccine or treatment.
Volunteers will get two hits a month apart. They will arrive at their registration site five more times and communicate to examine the coordinators about 24 times over two years.
During this time, players will be closely monitored through the COVID-19 symptom test team and will be evaluated to see if they have produced the antibodies to protect them from coronavirus. If a player is diagnosed with COVID-19 during their time on the test, the test team will provide the highest point of care.
“The physical condition and protection of each player is our most sensitive priority,” Munkarah said. “Your participation in this trial can help if the vaccine can save lives.”
