ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Although neutralizing antibodies to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) correlate with protection against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), little is known about the neutralizing and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) responses to COVID-19, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), and COVID-19 vaccination in children.METHODS:
We enrolled children 0-21 years of age with a history of COVID-19 (n = 13), MIS-C (n = 13), or 2 doses of BNT162b2 vaccination (n = 14) into a phlebotomy protocol. We measured pseudovirus neutralizing and functional ADCC antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 variants, including Omicron (B.1.1.529).RESULTS:
The primary BNT162b2 vaccination series elicited higher neutralizing and ADCC responses with greater breadth to SARS-CoV-2 variants than COVID-19 or MIS-C, although these were diminished against Omicron.CONCLUSIONS:
Serologic responses were significantly reduced against variants, particularly Omicron.Keywords
