Atomic layer deposition (ALD), a new vaccine technology, permits multiple dosing with a single administration by pulsatile release of one or more immunogens. We evaluated ALD delivery of mosaic-8b [60-mer nanoparticles presenting 8 different SARS-like betacoronavirus (sarbecovirus) receptor-binding domains (RBDs)] that elicit broadly cross-reactive antibodies and protect against mismatched sarbecoviruses not represented by RBDs on mosaic-8b. Compared with conventional prime-boost immunizations, ALD-delivered mosaic-8b RBD-nanoparticles elicited antibodies in both naive and pre-vaccinated mice with improved mismatched binding and neutralization. Results of the RBD epitope mapping of serum antibodies from ALD-delivered mosaic-8b were consistent with broader coverage of RBD epitopes compared to conventional immunizations, and systems serology revealed distinct IgG subclass and FcγR-binding IgG distributions. These results suggest that ALD is a promising technology for use with mosaic-8b RBD-nanoparticle vaccines to protect against future sarbecovirus spillovers and support applications for ALD vaccine delivery to elicit cross-reactive antibodies against rapidly mutating or diverse pathogens.
