PHH-1V vaccine compared to BNT162b2 as a SARS-CoV-2 booster vaccine, phase IIb results: Patricia Muñoz García, ECCMID 2023
PHH-1V, a SARS-CoV-2 protein-based heterodimer vaccine was investigated in a phase IIb trial where the immunogenicity and safety of a heterologous booster with PHH-1V was assessed versus a homologous booster with BNT162b2 at 14, 28 and 98 days after vaccine administration. We spoke with Prof. Patricia Muñoz García (Gregorio Marañón General University Hospital, Madrid, Spain) to discuss the findings from the trial, how the results of this study might impact future development of COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots, and also a look to the future in developing the PHH-1V booster vaccine for COVID-19 in more patient populations.
The abstract ‘Safety and immunogenicity of the protein-based PHH-1V compared to BNT162b2 as a heterologous SARS-CoV-2 booster vaccine in adults vaccinated against COVID-19: a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, non-inferiority phase IIb trial‘ was presented at ECCMID 2023, 15-18 April, 2023, Copenhagen, Denmark.
