Figure 1. Neutralization of D614G and Omicron SARS-CoV-2 Pseudoviruses in Serum Samples Obtained from Recipients of the mRNA-1273 Primary Vaccine Regimen and Booster.
Panel A shows pseudovirus neutralization assay antibody titers against the wild-type D614G and omicron pseudoviruses measured before the administration of the first dose of the primary two-dose mRNA-1273 vaccine on day 1, 1 month after the second dose (day 57), 7 months after the second dose and before the booster dose, and 1 month and 6 months after the 50-μg mRNA-1273 booster dose. The differences in titers relative to D614G are shown. Panel B shows pseudovirus neutralizing assay titers against D614G and omicron pseudovirus in serum samples obtained from vaccine recipients who initially received the two-dose series of mRNA-1273 vaccine (100 μg in each dose) and who subsequently were randomly selected to receive one booster dose of mRNA-1273 vaccine (either 50 or 100 μg), bivalent mRNA-1273.211 vaccine (either 50 or 100 μg), or bivalent mRNA-1273.213 vaccine (100 μg). Serum samples were obtained from the participants 1 month after they received the booster. The time between vaccination with the second dose of primary vaccine and booster vaccination ranged from 7 to 13 months (Table S1). Twenty participants were selected for each dose of the vaccine and the booster and for each type of booster (mRNA-1273, mRNA-1273.211, or mRNA-1273.213 vaccine). The 50% inhibitory dilution (ID50) neutralizing antibody titers were assayed against pseudoviruses containing the spike protein of the D614G and omicron variants (see the Supplementary Methods section in the Supplementary Appendix). The 𝙸 bars represent 95% confidence intervals, and the circles individual participants. The lower limit of detection (dashed line) of the assay was 10. Values below the lower limit of detection were assigned a value of 5. NA denotes not available for testing.
