The coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has a severe impact on global public health, and the emerging variants threaten the efficacy of the circulating vaccines. Here, we report that a single vaccination with a non-replicating chimpanzee adenovirus-based vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant (JS1-delta) elicits potent humoral, cellular and mucosal immunity in mice. Additionally, a single intranasal administration of JS1-delta provides effective protection against the Delta (B.1.617.2) variant challenge in mice. This study indicates that chimpanzee adenovirus type 3 (ChAd3) derived vector represents a promising platform for antiviral vaccine development against respiratory infections and JS1-delta is worth further investigation in human clinical trials.
