ABSTRACT
SUMMARY:
In patients with multiple myeloma, completion of mRNA-based vaccination schemes failed to yield detectable SARS-CoV-2 Omicron-neutralizing antibodies and S1-RBD-specific CD8+ T cells in approximately 60% and 80% of the cases, respectively. Patients who develop breakthrough infections exhibited very low levels of live-virus neutralizing antibodies and the absence of follicular T helper cells.
