T-Cell Responses Induced by an Intradermal BNT162b2 mRNA Vaccine Booster Following Primary Vaccination with Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine.

ABSTRACT: A practical booster vaccine is urgently needed to control the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. We have previously reported the safety and immunogenicity of a fractional intradermal booster, using the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine in healthy volunteers who had completed two doses of inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. In this study, an intramuscular booster at full dosage was used as a control, and a half-dose vaccination was included for reciprocal comparison. Detailed T-cell studies are essential to understand cellular responses to vaccination. T-cell immunity was examined using S1 peptide restimulation and flow cytometry. The fractional dose (1:5) of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine enhanced antigen-specific effector T-cells, but the responses were less remarkable compared to the intramuscular booster at full dosage. However, the intradermal regimen was not inferior to the intramuscular booster a month after boosting. An intradermal booster using only one-fifth of the standard dosage could provide comparable T-cell responses with the fractional intramuscular booster. This work confirms the efficacy of intradermal and fractional vaccination in terms of T-cell immunogenicity in previously immunised populations.

Project description:ImportanceEvidence describing the incidence of severe COVID-19 illness following vaccination and booster with BNT162b2, mRNA-1273, and Ad26.COV2.S vaccines is needed, particularly for high-risk populations.ObjectiveTo describe the incidence of severe COVID-19 illness among a cohort that received vaccination plus a booster vaccine dose.Design, setting, and participantsRetrospective cohort study of adults receiving care at Veterans Health Administration facilities across the US who received a vaccination series plus 1 booster against SARS-CoV-2, conducted from July 1, 2021, to May 30, 2022. Patients were eligible if they had received a primary care visit in the prior 2 years and had documented receipt of all US Food and Drug Administration-authorized doses of the initial mRNA vaccine or viral vector vaccination series after December 11, 2020, and a subsequent documented booster dose between July 1, 2021, and April 29, 2022. The analytic cohort consisted of 1 610 719 participants.ExposuresReceipt of any combination of mRNA-1273 (Moderna), BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech), and Ad26.COV2.S (Janssen/Johnson & Johnson) primary vaccination series and a booster dose.Main outcomes and measuresOutcomes were breakthrough COVID-19 (symptomatic infection), hospitalization with COVID-19 pneumonia and/or death, and hospitalization with severe COVID-19 pneumonia and/or death. A subgroup analysis of nonoverlapping populations included those aged 65 years or older, those with high-risk comorbid conditions, and those with immunocompromising conditions.ResultsOf 1 610 719 participants, 1 100 280 (68.4%) were aged 65 years or older and 132 243 (8.2%) were female; 1 133 785 (70.4%) had high-risk comorbid conditions, 155 995 (9.6%) had immunocompromising conditions, and 1 467 879 (91.1%) received the same type of mRNA vaccine (initial series and booster). Over 24 weeks, 125.0 (95% CI, 123.3-126.8) per 10 000 persons had breakthrough COVID-19, 8.9 (95% CI, 8.5-9.4) per 10 000 persons were hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia or died, and 3.4 (95% CI, 3.1-3.7) per 10 000 persons were hospitalized with severe pneumonia or died. For high-risk populations, incidence of hospitalization with COVID-19 pneumonia or death was as follows: aged 65 years or older, 1.9 (95% CI, 1.4-2.6) per 10 000 persons; high-risk comorbid conditions, 6.7 (95% CI, 6.2-7.2) per 10 000 persons; and immunocompromising conditions, 39.6 (95% CI, 36.6-42.9) per 10 000 persons. Subgroup analyses of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia or death by time after booster demonstrated similar incidence estimates among those aged 65 years or older and with high-risk comorbid conditions but not among those with immunocompromising conditions.Conclusions and relevanceIn a US cohort of patients receiving care at Veterans Health Administration facilities during a period of Delta and Omicron variant predominance, there was a low incidence of hospitalization with COVID-19 pneumonia or death following vaccination and booster with any of BNT162b2, mRNA-1273, or Ad26.COV2.S vaccines.
