The age-dependent immunogenicity after two doses of MVC-COV1901 vaccine

A post-hoc analysis of the phase 2 data was performed for the SARS-COV-2 subunit protein vaccine MVC-COV1901. Anti-spike IgG, neutralization assays with live virus and pseudovirus were used to demonstrate age-dependent vaccine-induced antibody response to the vaccine. Results showed that an association exists between age and immune responses to the vaccine, providing further support for the need of booster shots, especially for the older age groups.
