Vaccination has proven to be one of the most effective strategies against COVID-19 pandemic. Several studies have evaluated and confirmed its effectiveness in different populations, particularly reducing severe outcomes such as hospitalization death.

Additional COVID-19 vaccines that are safe and immunogenic needed for global vaccine equity. Here, we developed a recombinant type 5 adenovirus vector encoding the SARS-CoV-2 S1 subunit antigen nucleocapsid as fusion protein (Ad5.SARS-CoV-2-S1N). A single subcutaneous immunization with Ad5.SARS-CoV-2-S1N induced similar humoral response, along significantly higher S1-specific cellular alone (Ad5.SARS-CoV-2-S1). Immunogenicity was improved by homologous prime-boost vaccination, further through intramuscular heterologous vaccination using protein. Priming low dose (1 × 10

A vaccine candidate to SARS-CoV-2 was constructed by coupling the viral receptor binding domain (RBD) surface of papaya mosaic virus (PapMV) nanoparticle (nano) generate RBD-PapMV vaccine. Immunization mice with coupled enhanced antibody titers and T-cell mediated immune response directed RBD antigen as compared immunization non-coupled formulation (RBD + PapMV nano). Anti-RBD antibodies, generated in vaccinated animals, neutralized infection vitro against ancestral, Delta Omicron variants. At last, susceptible (K18-hACE2 transgenic mice) induced protection ancestral infectious challenge. The induction broad neutralization variants demonstrate potential platform development efficient vaccines respiratory infections.

SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has profound impacts on human life and global economy since the outbreak in 2019. With new variants continue to emerge with greater immune escaping capability, protectivity of available vaccines is compromised. Therefore, development a vaccine that capable inducing immunity against including omicron strains urgent need. In this study, we developed protein-based BCVax consisted antigen delta strain spike protein QS21-based adjuvant AB801 nanoparticle stimulation complex format (AB801-ISCOM). Results from animal studies showed high level anti-S IgG was induced after two doses neutralizing multiple pseudovirus BA.1 or BA.2 strains. addition, strong Th1 response stimulated immunization. Furthermore, BCvax AB801-ISCOM as significant stronger compared using aluminum hydroxide plus CpG 1018 adjuvant. also evaluated booster prior vaccinations, titers neutralization activities BA.4/BA.5 were further enhanced suggesting promising candidate booster. Taken together, pre-clinical data warrant for clinic.

Over the last several years, there has been increased interest from academia and pharmaceutical/biotech industry in development of vaccine adjuvants for new emerging modalities. Despite this, adjuvant still some longest timelines pharmaceutical space, discovery to clinical approval. The reasons this are manyfold range complexities translation animal human models, concerns about safety or reactogenicity, challenges sourcing necessary raw materials at scale. In review, we will describe current state art many technologies how they should be approached applied products.
