Monkeypox virus-neutralising antibodies detected against Clade Ib and Clade IIb in healthy individuals following MVA-BN vaccination
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Recently, a novel subclade of mpox virus (MPXV), clade Ib, has emerged in Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Modified vaccinia Ankara—Bavarian Nordic (MVA-BN) is a third-generation smallpox vaccine that is authorised and in use as a vaccine against mpox. MVA-BN provides approximately 78% protection against disease to Clade IIb MPXV, but there are no data for Clade Ib. We used a plaque reduction neutralisation assay (PRNT) with MPXV clinical isolates from Clade Ib and IIb to investigate immunity in vaccinated health care workers. Here we show that a two-dose regimen of MVA-BN can induce MPXV-neutralising antibodies against both clades, with higher responses to Clade IIb than Clade Ib. KEY POINTS Vaccination with MVA-BN generates antibodies that can neutralise MPXV Clade Ib and IIb. Despite the small sample size paired analysis across the vaccine recipients demonstrate higher neutralisation to Clade IIb than Ib.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
