Pfizer and BioNTech announced robust results from a Phase 2/3 clinical trial for their Omicron BA.4/BA.5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine. A 30-µg booster significantly increased neutralizing antibody titers—13.2-fold in adults over 55 and 9.5-fold for those aged 18 to 55 compared to the original vaccine. The safety profile remains favorable, similar to the original vaccine. These findings suggest enhanced protection against Omicron variants and support ongoing evaluations of the vaccine's effectiveness against emerging strains.
