Risk assessment
Primary scope : Risk assessment
12. Main objective(s)
What is the main objective of the study?
This study has 2 chronologically consecutive aims: 1) to conduct a feasibility assessment aiming to inform the safety evaluation study and 2) to assess the risk of developing pre-specified and newly identified AESIs following administration of Ad26.COV2.S.
Are there primary outcomes?Yes
predefined and newly identified AESIs among individuals exposed to Ad26.COV2.S
Are there secondary outcomes?No
13. Study design
What is the design of the study?
Cohort study
Self-Controlled Risk Interval
14. Follow-up of patients
Will patients be followed up?Yes
Please describe duration of follow up
up to 1 year follow-up post-vaccination
15. Data analysis plan
Please provide a brief summary of the analysis method
For the feasibility analysis the utilization patterns of Ad26.COV2.S and other COVID-19 vaccines will be characterized and monitored over time. The primary analysis will focus on the calculation and comparison of the incidence rates of each non-acute AESI between individuals exposed to Ad26.COV2.S and (1) unexposed individuals; (2) individuals exposed to another viral vector COVID-19 vaccine (ie, Vaxzevria® [AZD1222] byOxford/AstraZeneca); and 3) individuals exposed receiving a mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (cohort).For acute events, the relative risk between risk window and control window will be estimated(SCRI) among individuals exposed to Ad26.COV2.S.
