![Between June 18 and Aug 3, 2020, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation enrolled 76 participants to the two studies (38 in each study). In each study, 9 volunteers received rAd26-S in Phase 1, nine received rAd5-S in phase 1, and 20 received rAd26-S and rAd5-S in Phase 2. Both vaccine formulations were safe and well tolerated. In both Phase 1 and 2 studies of the Sputnik V vaccine all 76 participants developed antibodies to the virus that causes COVID-19. The most common adverse events were pain at injection site (44 [58%]), hyperthermia (38 [50%]), headache (32 [42%]), asthenia (21 [28%]), and muscle and joint pain (18 [24%]). Most adverse events were mild and no serious adverse events were detected. All participants produced antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 glycoprotein. Cell-mediated responses were detected in all participants at day 28, with median cell proliferation of 2·5% CD4+ and 1·3% CD8+ with the frozen formulation, and a median cell proliferation of 1·3% CD4+ and 1·1% CD8+ with the lyophilised formulation. The heterologous rAd26 and rAd5 vector-based COVID-19 vaccine has a good safety profile and induced strong humoral and cellular immune responses in participants. Further investigation is needed of the effectiveness of this vaccine for prevention of COVID-19.](https://criticalcare.news/wp-content/uploads/from-russia-with-love-sputnik-v-covid-19-vaccine-generated-an-immune-response-100x100.jpg)
