摘要
Background: SpikoGen (R) is a subunit recombinant Wuhan spike protein produced in insect cells and formulated with Advax-CpG55.2 (TM) adjuvant. It is approved for adult and pediatric use in the Middle East. This study tested the safety and immunogenicity of SpikoGen (R) as a 3rd, 4th or 5th dose booster following a primary immunisation course of mRNA, adenovirus or SpikoGen (R) vaccine. Methods: The trial recruited participants who had received a previous doses of COVID-19 vaccine more than 3 months prior. Each received a single intramuscular booster dose of SpikoGen (R) vaccine. Spike and nuclear protein antibody levels were measured at 1 and 3 months post-booster, together with collection of data on SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections and symptoms of long COVID. Results: One-month post-booster, anti-spike IgG, sVNT, and pVNT levels were increased in all groups and there was similar to 4-fold neutralizing antibodies against the heterologous Omicron BA.2 and BA.4/5 strains. The SpikoGen (R)-prime group had the highest levels of anti-spike IgG3, consistent with the Advax-CpG adjuvant driving IgG3 induction. There was no effect of age on the vaccine response. The booster dose was well tolerated with no vaccine-associated serious adverse events. Nine participants (9/74, 12.2 %) had a breakthrough SARS-CoV-2 infection between 2 weeks and 3 months post-booster. No long COVID was observed after breakthrough infections. Breakthrough infection was negatively correlated with baseline anti-nuclear protein IgG seropositivity. Conclusion: A single SpikoGen (R) booster was well tolerated and stimulated cross- antibody responses against Omicron variants, regardless of the primary vaccine course received. With SARS-CoV-2 variants continuing to evolve, ongoing research is needed into optimum booster strategies.
