Background: The minimized pan-coronavirus (CoV) vaccine-1 developed by our laboratory contained pDNA sequences of feline coronavirus serotype-1 (FCoV1) and SARS-CoV2 (SCoV2) spike B-cell epitopes plus FCoV/SCoV2-conserved, CoV-specific polymerase cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes formulated in lipid nanoparticle (LNP). Only FCoV2 infects feline cell lines needed for developing native challenge inoculum that causes feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). Hence, Pilot Study 1 evaluated the therapeutic efficacy and safety of the pan-CoV vaccine-1 in feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV)-infected cats, with or without FCoV1 coinfection. Pilot Study 2 evaluated the cross-protective effect of pan-CoV vaccines in specific-pathogen-free (SPF) cats against intranasal challenge with FIP virus serotype 2 (FIPV2). Methods: In Study 1, we vaccinated two FIV-infected cats (one negative and another positive for FCoV1 coinfection) intramuscularly twice with CTL epitopes-LNP vaccine and later twice with pan-CoV vaccine-1. Controls included two unvaccinated FIV-infected cats with or without FCoV1 coinfection. Study 2 assessed the sequential vaccinations of three pan-CoV vaccines in four SPF cats. The first two vaccinations were with pan-CoV vaccine-2, followed by pan-CoV vaccine-3 (twice), and lastly with pan-CoV vaccine-1 (once). Three SPF controls included two cats immunized with LNP and one lacking any immunization. Pan-CoV vaccine-2 contained pDNAs with modified FCoV1/SCoV2 B-cell epitopes plus CTL epitopes in LNP. Pan-CoV vaccine-3 contained only pDNAs with FCoV1 B-cell epitopes plus CTL epitopes in LNP. Results: Study 1 demonstrated no adverse effect with 25 μg and 50 μg CTL epitopes-LNP vaccine and 50 μg pan-CoV vaccine-1. However, 100 μg pan-CoV vaccine-1 caused fever 24 h later, which was resolved by a single Meloxicam treatment. Both vaccinees developed cross-FCoV2 neutralizing antibodies (XNAbs), immunoblot binding antibodies (bAbs) to FCoV1 receptor-binding domain (RBD), and T-cell responses to FCoV1 RBD, whereas one vaccinee also developed bAbs to SCoV2 RBD. Study 2 demonstrated no adverse effects after each vaccination. Three vaccinees developed low-titer XNAbs and bAbs to FCoV2 spike-2 by the fourth vaccination. Upon challenge, all cats developed FCoV2 NAbs and bAbs to FCoV2 nucleocapsid and RBD. High vaccine-induced T-cell responses to FCoV1 RBD and T-cell mitogen responses declined with an increase in responses to FCoV2 RBD at three weeks post-challenge. Two of the three controls died from FIP, whereas one vaccinee, with the lowest vaccine-induced immunity, died from skin vasculitis lesions and detection of FIPV2 infection by semi-nested RT-snPCR in feces. Conclusions: In Pilot Study 1, the pan-CoV vaccine-LNP dose of 50 μg had no adverse effects, but adverse effects were observed at 100 μg dose. In Pilot Study 2, the FCoV1-based B-cell vaccine(s) induced low levels of XNAbs against FIPV2 and delayed challenge infection against high-dose FIPV2. The high-dose FIPV2 infections in the vaccinated and control cats started to clear, by single housing at 23–26 weeks post-challenge, whereas two cats in Pilot Study 1 cleared natural FCoV1 transmission by 26 weeks post-infection.
