Mechanism of Action and Composition:
  • Bretovameran is a single-stranded, 5’-capped messenger RNA (mRNA) produced using a cell-free in vitro transcription from the corresponding DNA templates, encoding the viral spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2 (Omicron JN.1).

  • The nucleoside-modified mRNA in COMIRNATY is formulated in lipid nanoparticles, which enable delivery of the non-replicating RNA into host cells to direct transient expression of the SARS-CoV-2 S antigen.1-3
  • The vaccine elicits both neutralising antibody and cellular immune responses to the spike (S) antigen, which may contribute to protection against COVID-19. 1-3
