mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine boosters induce neutralizing immunity against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant

Wilfredo F. Garcia-Beltran et al.

Summary: Recent surveillance has identified the emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant, which carries up to 36 mutations in the spike protein and has the potential to evade vaccine-induced immunity. This study found that individuals vaccinated with mRNA vaccines exhibited strong neutralization of the Omicron variant, while most vaccinees had weak neutralization. The study also revealed that the Omicron variant infects more efficiently than other tested variants.

SARS-CoV-2 vaccination induces immunological T cell memory able to cross-recognize variants from Alpha to Omicron

Alison Tarke et al.

Summary: T cell responses induced by different vaccine platforms cross-recognize early SARS-CoV-2 variants, while memory B cells and neutralizing antibodies show significant decreases. The majority of memory T cell responses are preserved against variants, with lower recognition of Omicron by memory B cells.

Omicron's message on vaccines: Boosting begets breadth

Duane R. Wesemann

Summary: Three studies in this issue of Cell confirm that SARS-CoV-2 Omicron effectively evades key immune defense-neutralizing antibodies. However, one or two doses of vaccine fail to induce anti-Omicron neutralizing antibodies, whereas a homologous third-dose booster restores neutralization function to some extent, highlighting the adaptability of immune memory to extend antibody reach across SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Emerging SARS-CoV-2 Variants: Genetic Variability and Clinical Implications

Aakriti Dubey et al.

Summary: The sudden rise in COVID-19 cases in 2020 and the emergence of fast-spreading variants have created a worrisome situation worldwide. New variants with mutations that outcompete existing circulating variants are frequently reported, raising concerns about the efficacy of vaccines, increased transmissibility, immune escape, and diagnostic failures. Although not yet validated, it is believed that SARS-CoV-2 is acquiring new mutations to gain a fitness advantage for rapid transmission or to overcome immune resistance. Significant evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has been observed since its first appearance in 2019, but the impacts of these mutations in many variants have not been analyzed. This article provides a comprehensive review of the emerging variants of SARS-CoV-2, key mutations in the viral genome, and the possible impacts on current prevention and therapeutic strategies.

Summary: A study was conducted to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a third dose of heterologous or homologous vaccines in Brazilian adults who had previously received two doses of CoronaVac. The results showed that a third dose of heterologous vaccines (recombinant adenoviral vectored vaccine or mRNA vaccine) significantly increased immune responses and could improve protection against infection.

Activity of convalescent and vaccine serum against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron

Juan Manuel Carreno et al.

Summary: The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, first identified in South Africa and Botswana in November 2021, has rapidly spread globally with high transmissibility. It has an unprecedented number of mutations in its spike gene, leading to immune escape and reduced vaccine efficacy. The neutralizing and binding activity against Omicron varies among individuals with different vaccination and infection histories.

Neutralizing antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant BA.1 following homologous and heterologous CoronaVac or BNT162b2 vaccination

Samuel M. S. Cheng et al.

Summary: Specific antibody levels against the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant decrease significantly after two doses of BNT162b2 or CoronaVac vaccines, but can be markedly increased with a booster dose of BNT162b2. Individuals who previously received two doses of BNT162b2 or CoronaVac showed reduced serum antibody titers against Omicron, while a BNT162b2 booster dose increased the antibody levels in the majority of individuals. This suggests mRNA vaccine boosters may be necessary in countries primarily using CoronaVac vaccines to combat the spread of Omicron.

Immunity to SARS-CoV-2 up to 15 months after infection

Harold Marcotte et al.

Summary: This study monitored the immune response in COVID-19 patients up to 15 months after symptom onset. It found that the IgG antibody response and plasma neutralizing titers gradually decreased over time but stabilized after 6 months. SARS-CoV-2-specific memory B and T cells persisted in the majority of patients up to 15 months, but there was a significant decrease in specific T cells between 6 and 15 months. Some variants of concern may partially escape the neutralizing activity of plasma antibodies.

Neutralizing antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant after third mRNA vaccination in health care workers and elderly subjects

Summary: The emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant has raised concerns about neutralization escape and breakthrough infections. Researchers found that healthcare workers who received three doses of the vaccine had high levels of neutralizing antibodies, while the elderly had lower levels and some lacked antibodies against the Beta and Omicron variants. Previously infected subjects who received one mRNA vaccine dose had variable levels of cross-reactive neutralizing antibodies, but the levels against Omicron were barely detectable after one month.

Vaccine-induced Spike protein-specific antibodies continue to drive Fc effector functions, indicating the potential of extraneutralizing antibodies in disease control.

Reduced neutralisation of the Delta (B.1.617.2) SARS-CoV-2 variant of concern following vaccination

Chris Davis et al.

Summary: Vaccines have proven to be effective in controlling hospitalisation and deaths associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection, but the emergence of viral variants with novel antigenic profiles raises concerns. Serum from vaccine recipients showed reduced neutralisation against SARS-CoV-2 variants like B.1.617.1, B.1.617.2, and B.1.351. The BNT162b2 vaccine induced higher neutralising antibody titres compared to the ChAdOx1 vaccine, but both vaccines showed decreased efficacy against certain variants.
