BNT162b4 elicits polyfunctional #CD4+ and #CD8+ #Tcell responses from diverse #epitopes in animal models, alone or when co-administered with BNT162b2 while preserving spike-specific immunity. Importantly, we demonstrate that BNT162b4 protects hamsters from severe disease and reduces viral titers”

We and @pfizer@twitter.com started a Phase 1 trial for #BNT162b4 aimed at enhancing the breadth of t cell responses. This is part of our next generation #COVID19 vaccine candidate approach. Goal: potentially broaden and extend the duration of protection against COVID-19.
