Accel Research Sites now recruiting for new pediatric COVID-19 vaccine trial

LAKE MARY, Fla. - EntSun -- Accel Research Sites will serve as a location for a new clinical trial for a COVID-19 vaccine candidate—this time for children.

The company is now recruiting those younger than 18 to participate. Enrollment will start soon.

The studies will take place at Accel's DeLand, Fla., and Lakeland, Fla., locations. Dr. Bruce Rankin and Dr. James Andersen will serve as the primary investigators.

"We're so proud to have played a part in developing vaccines for COVID-19," said Lora Parahovnik, CEO of Accel Research Sites. "Now, we want to play a part in helping everyone get vaccinated. These pediatric trials will be essential in developing a safe vaccine for those under 18."
