Abstract
The efficacy of one dose Ad5-nCoV has been concerning. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a single dose BNT162b2 in individuals after a completed Ad5-nCoV vaccination regiment compared to a group without this boost measuring SARS-CoV-2 Spike 1–2 IgG antibodies in plasma. This observational study included a subgroup analysis of patients who were immunized with Ad5-nCoV in a northern city of Mexico. During follow-up, some patients self-reported having received a BNT162b2 booster. We report baseline IgG levels, 21–28 days after the Ad5-nCoV dose, three months, and an additional 21–28 days after BNT162b2 (four months after Ad5-nCoV). Seventeen patients, age 40 (16), 52.9% men, were analyzed. We created four groups: G1 and G2 refer to patients without a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection, vaccinated with Ad5-nCoV and Ad5-nCoV/BNT162b2 (n = 4 and n = 6), respectively; G3 and G4 included patients with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection and immunized with Ad5-nCoV and Ad5-nCoV/BNT162b2 (n = 5 and n = 2), respectively. The Ad5-nCoV/BNT162b2 protocol reported higher antibody titers after 21–28 days. Median (IQR) values were: G1 46.7 (-), G2 1077.5 (1901), G3 1158.5 (2673.5), and G4 2090 (-) (p < 0.05). Headache and pain at injection site were the most frequent adverse reactions associated with Ad5-nCoV (n = 10, 83%) and BNT162b2 (n = 5, 83.3%), respectively. Patients receiving BNT162b2 after Ad5-nCoV had higher SARS-CoV-2 spike 1–2 IgG antibody titers and had no severe adverse reactions.

Antibodies Sentences Resources After explaining the study to each patient, emphasizing the follow-up along an entire year through SARS-CoV-2 specific IgG antibodies measurement samples, all participants provided written informed consent. SARS-CoV-2 specific IgGsuggested: NoneTherefore, after 21-28 days of receiving prime-boost vaccination, the research team contacted the participants to take the second plasma sample for IgG antibodies measurement. IgGsuggested: NoneAfter completing the vaccine regimen, the follow-up questionnaires on the fourth, fifth and sixth IgG antibody samples asked about any suspicious or confirmed SARS-COV-2 infections. sixth IgGsuggested: NoneIt used chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) technology to determine the amount of specific anti-S1 and anti-S2 IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in plasma samples. anti-S1suggested: Noneanti-S2 IgGsuggested: NoneThe analyzed biochemical variables were SARS-CoV-2 quantitative antibodies from the basal sample (S1), 21-28 days post-Ad5-nCoV (S2), three-month follow-up after immunization (S3), and 21-28 days post-first BNT-boost (S4).

Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:A limitation of this investigation is the sample size. So further prospective studies must recruit a more significant sample. Another limitation was the time between both vaccines. It could have more relevance to justify the time lapses, but it was established according to the patients’ access to another vaccine.
Results from TrialIdentifier: No clinical trial numbers were referenced.
