ABSTRACT

Heterologous Covid-19 vaccination strategies arose due to interruption of vaccination programs plus delay and shortage of vaccine supplies. We analysed neutralizing response against ancestral SARS-CoV-2 B.1 and P.1, C.37 and B.1.67.2 variants elicited by 16 homologous and heterologous protocols combining Gam-COVID-Vac, ChAdOx1-S, Ad5-nCorV, BBIBP-CorV and mRNA-1273 vaccines. Homologous mRNA-1273 and heterologous schemes of a non-replicative viral vector/inactivated virus-based vaccine combined with mRNA-1273 induced significantly broader and greater neutralizing antibody-response. Moreover, serum from participants vaccinated with combinations of ChAdOx1-S/Ad5-nCorV and BBIBP-CorV/non-replicative viral vector-based vaccines showed higher or equivalent neutralizing response compared to homologous protocols, pointing them as good alternative platforms. BBIBP-CorV used as second dose exhibited significantly lower neutralizing response compared to other protocols, demonstrating that it should not be recommended as second dose. The information provided herein is valuable to redesign vaccination strategies, especially for low-income countries that still struggle with low percentages of immunized populations and vaccine supply shortage.

ABSTRACT

We evaluated humoral immune-response elicited by Sputnik-V by measuring anti-Spike (S) IgG antibodies (Abs) and neutralizing antibodies (NAb) prior to, 14 and 42 days after-vaccination. The safety and disease rates among vaccinated individuals were also evaluated. Since SARS-CoV-2 lineage P.1 is rapidly spreading in Argentina, virus-neutralizing activity of Sputnik-V-elicited and infection-elicited NAb faced to P.1 were also assessed. A total of 285 participants were recruited; all reported good tolerance, without any severe adverse event. Nine COVID-19 cases were confirmed in fully vaccinated individuals and viable P.1 variant was successfully isolated from one of them. At day 42, 99.65% of the individuals had anti-S IgG; however, 23.15% had not detectable NAbs. Significantly higher neutralization potency against WT compared to P.1 (p < 0·001) was observed. Some samples failed to neutralize P.1, mainly among vaccinated-naїve subjects; however, no significant differences were observed among previously infected-vaccinated individuals. Our results corroborated that Sputnik-V is safe and induces an efficient humoral immune response, although not all immunized subjects develop Nabs. Herein, we show for the first time, evidence of infectious SARS-CoV-2 shedding from Sputnik-V fully vaccinated individuals, by the isolation of viable virus from the nasopharyngeal swab of one participant of our study, 139 days after receiving the second dose. Thereby, we provide evidence indicating that the vaccine might avoid severe forms of COVID-19 but does not prevent infection nor prevents transmission from a fully vaccinated individual.
