The Astra Zeneca vaccine which is similar to Johnson & Johnson's, was studied in combination with Pfizer's; they found using Pfizer as the second dose after a first dose of AZ gave better results than two doses of AZ: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3874014 "Safety and Immunogenicity Report from the Com-COV Study – a Single-Blind Randomised Non-Inferiority Trial Comparing Heterologous And Homologous Prime-Boost Schedules with An Adenoviral Vectored and mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine"
