RESUMO

Patients with autoimmune diseases are at higher risk for severe infection due to their underlying disease and immunosuppressive treatments. In this real-world observational study of 463 patients with autoimmune diseases, we examined risk factors for poor B and T cell responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. We show a high frequency of inadequate anti-spike IgG responses to vaccination and boosting in the autoimmune population but minimal suppression of T cell responses. Low IgG responses in B cell-depleted patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) were associated with higher CD8 T cell responses. By contrast, patients taking mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) exhibited concordant suppression of B and T cell responses. Treatments with highest risk for low anti-spike IgG response included B cell depletion within the last year, fingolimod, and combination treatment with MMF and belimumab. Our data show that the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccine is the most effective vaccine in the autoimmune population. There was minimal induction of either disease flares or autoantibodies by vaccination and no significant effect of preexisting anti-type I IFN antibodies on either vaccine response or breakthrough infections. The low frequency of breakthrough infections and lack of SARS-CoV-2-related deaths suggest that T cell immunity contributes to protection in autoimmune disease.

RESUMO

Immune imprinting is a phenomenon in which prior antigenic experiences influence responses to subsequent infection or vaccination1,2. The effects of immune imprinting on serum antibody responses after boosting with variant-matched SARS-CoV-2 vaccines remain uncertain. Here we characterized the serum antibody responses after mRNA vaccine boosting of mice and human clinical trial participants. In mice, a single dose of a preclinical version of mRNA-1273 vaccine encoding Wuhan-1 spike protein minimally imprinted serum responses elicited by Omicron boosters, enabling generation of type-specific antibodies. However, imprinting was observed in mice receiving an Omicron booster after two priming doses of mRNA-1273, an effect that was mitigated by a second booster dose of Omicron vaccine. In both SARS-CoV-2-infected and uninfected humans who received two Omicron-matched boosters after two or more doses of the prototype mRNA-1273 vaccine, spike-binding and neutralizing serum antibodies cross-reacted with Omicron variants as well as more distantly related sarbecoviruses. Because serum neutralizing responses against Omicron strains and other sarbecoviruses were abrogated after pre-clearing with Wuhan-1 spike protein, antibodies induced by XBB.1.5 boosting in humans focus on conserved epitopes targeted by the antecedent mRNA-1273 primary series. Thus, the antibody response to Omicron-based boosters in humans is imprinted by immunizations with historical mRNA-1273 vaccines, but this outcome may be beneficial as it drives expansion of cross-neutralizing antibodies that inhibit infection of emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants and distantly related sarbecoviruses.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the immunogenicity of a bivalent BA.1 COVID-19 booster vaccine in people with HIV (PWH). DESIGN: Prospective observational cohort study. METHODS: PWH aged ≥45 years received Wuhan-BA.1 mRNA-1273.214 and those <45 years Wuhan-BA.1 BNT162b2. Participants were propensity score-matched 1 : 2 to people without HIV (non-PWH) by age, primary vaccine platform (mRNA-based or vector-based), number of prior COVID-19 boosters and SARS-CoV-2 infections, and spike (S1)-specific antibodies on the day of booster administration. The primary endpoint was the geometric mean ratio (GMR) of ancestral S1-specific antibodies from day 0 to 28 in PWH compared to non-PWH. Secondary endpoints included humoral responses, T-cell responses and cytokine responses up to 180 days post-vaccination. RESULTS: Forty PWH received mRNA-1273.214 ( N  = 35) or BNT162b2 ( N  = 5) following mRNA-based ( N  = 29) or vector-based ( N  = 11) primary vaccination. PWH were predominantly male (87% vs. 26% of non-PWH) and median 57 years [interquartile range (IQR) 53-59]. Their median CD4 + T-cell count was 775 (IQR 511-965) and the plasma HIV-RNA load was <50 copies/ml in 39/40. The GMR of S1-specific antibodies by 28 days post-vaccination was comparable between PWH [4.48, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.24-6.19] and non-PWH (4.07, 95% CI 3.42-4.83). S1-specific antibody responses were comparable between PWH and non-PWH up to 180 days, and T-cell responses up to 90 days post-vaccination. Interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-2, and IL-4 cytokine concentrations increased 28 days post-vaccination in PWH. CONCLUSION: A bivalent BA.1 booster vaccine was immunogenic in well treated PWH, eliciting comparable humoral responses to non-PWH. However, T-cell responses waned faster after 90 days in PWH compared to non-PWH.

RESUMO

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to millions of fatalities globally. Kidney transplant (KT) patients, given their comorbidities and under immunosuppressant drugs, are identified as a high-risk group. Though vaccination remains pivotal for pandemic control, some studies indicate that KT exhibits diminished immune reactions to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. Therefore, evaluating the vaccine responses in KT, especially the humoral responses against emergent variants is crucial.Methods: We developed a multiplexed SARS-CoV-2 variant protein microarray, incorporating the extracellular domain (ECD) and the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the spike proteins from the variants. This was employed to investigate the collective humoral responses after administering two doses of mRNA-1273 and AZD1222 vaccines in KT under immunosuppressive drugs and in healthy controls.Results: After two doses of either mRNA-1273 or AZD1222, the KT generally showed lower surrogate neutralizing and total antibodies against spike ECD in multiple variants compared to healthy controls. Although two doses of mRNA-1273 induced 1.5-2 fold more surrogate neutralizing and total antibodies than AZD1222 in healthy controls, the KT subjects with two doses of mRNA-1273 generally exhibited higher surrogate neutralizing but similar total antibodies against spike ECD in multiple variants. There were moderate to high correlations between the surrogate neutralizing and total antibodies against spike ECDs.Conclusion: This study offers pivotal insights into the relative vulnerability of KT concerning humoral immunity and the evolving mutations of SARS-CoV-2. Such findings are useful for evaluating vaccine responses and recommending vaccine episodes for KT.

RESUMO

Two doses of JYNNEOS vaccine are effective in preventing many mpox cases and can reduce the severity of symptoms in infected persons. However, infections among fully vaccinated persons can occur. During May 2022-May 2024, a total of 271 mpox cases among fully vaccinated persons were reported to CDC from 27 U.S. jurisdictions. These reported infections are estimated to have occurred in <1% of fully vaccinated persons. Compared with cases among unvaccinated persons, infections among fully vaccinated persons were more likely to occur among non-Hispanic White men aged 30-39 years, were associated with increased numbers of sexual partners, and resulted in less severe disease (p<0.001). Among infections in fully vaccinated persons with complete data, infections after vaccination were reported more commonly after receipt of heterologous (subcutaneous and intradermal) (46%) or homologous subcutaneous (32%) JYNNEOS vaccination than after homologous intradermal (22%) vaccination. Disparate time intervals from vaccination to infection among fully vaccinated persons suggest that immunity is not waning. The median interval between the second vaccine dose and illness onset was longer for cases among persons who had received 2 intradermal doses (median = 363 days; IQR = 221-444 days) compared with cases in persons who had received 2 subcutaneous doses (median = 263 days; IQR = 47-334 days) (p<0.001). The implications of this finding are not known; however, these data should increase confidence in the effectiveness of vaccine doses that were administered intradermally, the preferred method of administration during the peak of the outbreak when vaccine supply was limited. Persons recommended to receive the JYNNEOS vaccine should receive 2 doses, irrespective of the route of administration, and at this time, additional doses are not recommended for the affected population.

RESUMO

Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 were developed during the pandemic including the BNT162b2 and the mRNA-1273. We evaluated the levels of binding antibodies against the receptor binding domain and the levels of NAbs in individuals who developed a breakthrough infection after having received three doses of mRNA-1273. A total of 51 participants were included. The breakthrough group was compared to a 1:1 matched-control group. Among the 51 individuals, 18 (35%) developed a breakthrough infection. The GMT of NAbs against the BA.1 in the BK population was 278.1 (95%CI: 168.1-324.1). This titer was significantly lower compared to the matched-control group when considering all data (GMT = 477.4; 95%CI: 316.2-541.0; p = 0.0057). Results were similar for the BA.5 (GMT = 152.0 (95%CI: 76.9-172.9) for breakthrough and 262.0 (95%CI: 171.3-301.8) for control (p = 0.0043)). Our study found that individuals receiving the mRNA-1273 booster and who developed a breakthrough infection presented lower levels of binding antibodies and NAbs before the infection as compared to a matched-control group.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) findings and their relationship to longer-term clinical outcomes in patients with suspected myocarditis following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. METHODS: Consecutive adult patients who underwent clinically indicated CMR for evaluation of suspected myocarditis following messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-based COVID-19 vaccination at a single center between 2021 and 2022 were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were classified based on the revised Lake Louise criteria for T1-based abnormalities (late gadolinium enhancement [LGE] or high T1 values) and T2-based abnormalities (regional T2-hyperintensity or high T2 values). RESULTS: Eighty-nine patients were included (64% [57/89] male, mean age 34 ± 13 years, 38% [32/89] mRNA-1273, and 62% [52/89] BNT162b2). On baseline CMR, 42 (47%) had at least one abnormality; 25 (28%) met both T1- and T2-criteria; 17 (19%) met T1-criteria but not T2-criteria; and 47 (53%) did not meet either. The interval between vaccination and CMR was shorter in those who met T1- and T2-criteria (28 days, IQR 8-69) compared to those who met T1-criteria only (110 days, IQR 66-255, p < 0.001) and those who did not meet either (120 days, interquartile range (IQR) 80-252, p < 0.001). In the subset of 21 patients who met both T1- and T2-criteria at baseline and had follow-up CMR, myocardial edema had resolved and left ventricular ejection fraction had normalized in all at median imaging follow-up of 214 days (IQR 132-304). However, minimal LGE persisted in 10 (48%). At median clinical follow-up of 232 days (IQR 156-405, n = 60), there were no adverse cardiac events. However, mild cardiac symptoms persisted in 7 (12%). CONCLUSION: In a cohort of patients who underwent clinically indicated CMR for suspected myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccination, 47% had at least one abnormality at baseline CMR. Detection of myocardial edema was associated with the timing of CMR after vaccination. There were no adverse cardiac events. However, minimal LGE persisted in 48% at follow-up.

RESUMO

This study aims to elucidate the effectiveness and safety of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We enrolled uninfected SLE patients who received two vaccine doses (BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273) and historical unvaccinated patients. Neutralizing antibodies, adverse reactions, and disease flares were evaluated 4 weeks after the second vaccination. Ninety patients were enrolled in each group. Among the vaccinated patients, SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI), and prednisolone doses before vaccination were 2, and 5 mg/d, respectively. After the second vaccination, 19 (21.1%) had no neutralizing antibodies. Adverse reactions occurred in 88.9% within 3 d. Negative antibodies were associated with anemia and mycophenolate mofetil administration. SLEDAI increased modestly but significantly after vaccination, with 13 (14.4%) experiencing flares and 4 (4.4%) severe flares (nephritis in three and vasculitis in one). The flare rate was higher in vaccinated patients than unvaccinated controls. The mean duration between the second vaccination and flares was 35 d, and flares occurred at least 8 days after vaccination. Multivariable analysis showed that high SLEDAI and anti-dsDNA antibodies were associated with flares. The vaccine type, neutralizing antibody titer, and adverse reaction frequency did not affect flares. Therefore, residual disease activity before vaccination increases flare risk.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Nanoporous microneedle arrays (npMNA) are being developed as skin patches for vaccine delivery. As alternative for needle-based immunisation, they may potentially result in higher vaccine acceptance, which is important for future mass vaccination campaigns to control outbreaks, such as COVID-19, and for public vaccination in general. In this study we investigated the safety and immunogenicity of needle-free intradermal delivery of a fractional third or fourth dose of mRNA-1273 vaccine by npMNA. METHODS: This study was an open-label, randomised-controlled, proof-of-concept study. Healthy adults were eligible if they had received a primary immunisation series against SARS-CoV-2 with two doses of mRNA-1273 (Moderna) or BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) mRNA vaccine. A history of a COVID-19 infection or booster vaccination with mRNA-1273 or BNT162b2 was allowed if it occurred at least three months before inclusion. Participants were randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive 20 µg mRNA-1273 vaccine, either through npMNA patch applied on the skin (ID-patch group), or through intramuscular (IM) injection (IM-control group). Primary outcomes were reactogenicity up to two weeks after vaccination, and fold-increase of SARS-CoV-2 spike S1-specific IgG antibodies 14 days post-vaccination. RESULTS: In April 2022, 20 participants were enroled. The geometric mean concentration (GMC) did not increase in the ID-patch group after vaccination, in contrast to the IM-control group (GMC was 1,006 BAU/mL (95% CI 599-1,689), 3,855 (2,800-5,306), and 3,513 (2,554-4,833) at day 1, 15 and 29, respectively). In addition, SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell responses were lower after ID vaccination through npMNA. CONCLUSION: Needle-free delivery of 20 µg mRNA-1273 vaccine by npMNA failed to induce antibody and T cell responses. As this is a potentially very useful vaccination method, it is important to determine which adjustments are needed to make this npMNA successful.

RESUMO

A TECNOLOGIA: Condição clínica: A Covid-19 é uma doença infecciosa causada pelo coronavírus 2 (SARS-CoV2), transmitido principalmente por meio de gotículas e aerossóis respiratórios de pessoa a pessoa. A infecção pode ser disseminada tanto por indivíduos assintomáticos quanto sintomáticos, e os sintomas podem aparecer de dois a 14 dias após a exposição ao vírus. A apresentação clínica da doença Covid-19 é variada. Os sintomas incluem febre, calafrio, tosse, dificuldade respiratória, fadiga, dores musculares, dor de cabeça, perda de paladar e olfato, dor de garganta, congestão nasal e sintomas gastrointestinais. Aproximadamente 5% dos pacientes com Covid-19 e 20% daqueles já hospitalizados apresentam um agravamento da doença, com necessidade de cuidados médicos intensivos. Em 11 de março de 2020, Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) declarou status de pandemia da Covid-196. Até o dia 25 de novembro de 2022, foram contabilizados 636.440.663 casos confirmados e 6.606.624 mortes7 pela doença no mundo. No Brasil, foram contabilizados 35.007.209 casos e 688.920 mortes até 19 de novembro de 2022. Após quase três anos de pandemia, o número de mortes devido à doença diminuiu, mesmo com ondas periódicas de aumento de casos que são observadas no mundo. Isso se deve, principalmente, ao avanço da vacinação. Até 23 de novembro de 2022, foram aplicadas, globalmente, um total de 12.959.275.260 de doses de vacina. No entanto, a pandemia de Covid-19 continua sendo um desafio de saúde global contínuo devido ao surgimento de múltiplas variantes do vírus SARS-CoV2. Destaca-se a rápida disseminação global da variante de preocupação ômicron (B.1.1.529, também referida como sublinhagem BA.1) e, mais recentemente, a predominância das sublinhagens ômicron BA.4 e BA.5 (referida como BA.4/BA.5 devido à estrutura similar de suas glicoproteínas spike). Diante da transmissão generalizada em todo o mundo, a OMS criou uma subcategoria de rastreamento, nomeada como sublinhagens de preocupação da variante ômicron. Dados de ensaios clínicos e de estudos de mundo real indicam uma diminuição da proteção após esquema vacinal primário e das doses de reforço ao longo do tempo, além de uma redução da eficácia contra variantes das vacinas originais disponíveis para prevenção da Covid-19. Assim, após o reconhecimento de que a variante ômicron se tornou a cepa circulante globalmente dominante em 2022, os fabricantes rapidamente passaram a desenvolver vacinas de segunda geração, chamadas de bivalentes ou adaptadas. Essas vacinas contêm o código do vírus SARS-CoV-2 original em associação com o código das variantes ômicron, com o objetivo de aumentar a eficácia para a prevenção da Covid-19. DESCRIÇÃO DA TECNOLOGIA: Os laboratórios Pfizer e Moderna desenvolveram e lançaram vacinas bivalentes formuladas com RNA mensageiro (mRNA) que codifica a proteína spike da cepa original do vírus SARS-CoV-2 e o mRNA da variante ômicron (BA.1 ou BA.4/BA.5) do vírus (Quadro 1). O mRNA da cepa original é utilizado para oferecer ampla proteção contra a Covid-19 enquanto o mRNA da ômicron é utilizado para melhorar a proteção contra essa variante. PANORAMA DE DESENVOLVIMENTO: Os ensaios clínicos com o uso das vacinas bivalentes para a profilaxia da Covid-19 foram identificados, inicialmente, na base de pesquisa clínica clinicaltrials.gov. Foram incluídos ensaios clínicos de fases 2, 3 e 4, em andamento ou completos, com o uso das tecnologias para a prevenção da Covid19. Além disso, foram consultadas as bases eletrônicas MEDLINE (via PubMed), EMBASE (via Periódicos Capes) e o Cortellis da Clarivate Analytics para buscar os resultados dos ensaios clínicos. As estratégias de busca foram elaboradas com os termos relacionados à doença e à tecnologia, assim como seus sinônimos e códigos de pesquisa. Todas as buscas foram realizadas em 09 de novembro de 2022. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS: Diante do cenário de disseminação das principais variantes de preocupação estão em desenvolvimento no momento ensaios clínicos com vacinas de diferentes variantes do vírus SARSCoV-2, sozinhas ou associadas à cepa original. As vacinas bivalentes mais adiantadas no seu desenvolvimento são as vacinas dos laboratórios farmacêuticos Pfizer e Moderna, as quais contêm tanto o código da cepa original quanto da variante ômicron BA.1 ou da variante ômicron BA.4/BA.5. Essas vacinas bivalentes já têm aprovação de uso emergencial nas agências sanitárias internacionais e já estão sendo utilizadas como dose de reforço nos respectivos países. No Brasil, ambas as vacinas bivalentes do laboratório Pfizer receberam autorização de uso emergencial pela Anvisa no final do mês de novembro de 2022. Essa aprovação visa ampliar a cobertura vacinal da população como uma ferramenta atualizada de resposta às variantes emergentes, uma vez que dados de mundo real indicam que, na presença da ômicron, a efetividade da dose inicial de reforço com a vacina Comirnaty® monovalente é mais baixa e desaparece mais rapidamente. As evidências indicam que as vacinas bivalentes podem ser utilizadas na população de modo seguro, além de produzir níveis superiores de títulos de anticorpos neutralizantes para as variantes de preocupação mais prevalentes no atual cenário. Os resultados preliminares dos ensaios clínicos mostram que as vacinas bivalentes apresentaram perfis de segurança e reatogenicidade semelhantes àqueles da vacina monovalente, já utilizada em grande escala. As reações adversas comuns foram leves (como dor e inchaço no local de injeção, fadiga, febre e dores de cabeça e nas articulações), sem ocorrência de eventos adversos graves ou miocardite. Quanto à eficácia, os dados de imunogenicidade indicam uma maior neutralização para a variante ômicron BA.1 e BA.4/BA.5. Para dirimir as incertezas existentes e obter dados mais robustos sobre a imunogenicidade e segurança dessas tecnologias, os laboratórios continuarão conduzindo os estudos clínicos com ambas as cepas variantes.

RESUMO

Several factors related to anti-spike(S) IgG antibody titers after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination have been elucidated, but the magnitude of the effects of each factor has not been fully understood. This cross-sectional study assessed anti-S and anti-nucleocapsid (N) antibody titers on 3744 healthy volunteers (median age, 36 years; IQR, 24-49 years; females, 59.0%) who received two doses of mRNA-1273 or BNT162b2 vaccine and completed a survey questionnaire. Multiple regression was conducted to identify factors associated with antibody titers. All but one participant tested positive for anti-S antibodies (99.97%). The following factors were independently and significantly associated with high antibody titer: < 3 months from vaccination (ratio of means 4.41); mRNA-1273 vaccine (1.90, vs BNT162b2); anti-N antibody positivity (1.62); age (10's: 1.50, 20's: 1.37, 30's: 1.26, 40's: 1.16, 50's: 1.15, vs ≧60's); female (1.07); immunosuppressive therapy (0.54); current smoking (0.85); and current drinking (0.96). The largest impact on anti-S IgG antibody titers was found in elapsed time after vaccination, followed by vaccine brand, immunosuppressants, previous SARS-CoV-2 infection (anti-N antibody positive), and age. Although the influence of adverse reactions after the vaccine, gender, smoking, and drinking was relatively small, they were independently related factors.

RESUMO

On June 17, 2022, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) amendments for the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) COVID-19 vaccine for use in children aged 6 months­5 years, administered as 2 doses (25 µg [0.25 mL] each), 4 weeks apart, and BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) COVID-19 vaccine for use in children aged 6 months­4 years, administered as 3 doses (3 µg [0.2 mL] each), at intervals of 3 weeks between doses 1 and 2 and ≥8 weeks between doses 2 and 3. On June 18, 2022, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) issued separate interim recommendations for use of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine in children aged 6 months­5 years and the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in children aged 6 months­4 years for the prevention of COVID-19.* Both the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccines met the criteria for immunobridging, which is the comparison of neutralizing antibody levels postvaccination in young children with those in young adults in whom efficacy had been demonstrated. Descriptive efficacy analyses were also conducted for both Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccines during the period when the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) predominated. No specific safety concerns were identified among recipients of either vaccine. ACIP recommendations for the use of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine and the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in children aged 6 months­5 years and 6 months­4 years, respectively, are interim and will be updated as additional information becomes available. Vaccination is important for protecting children aged 6 months­5 years against COVID-19.

RESUMO

Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are highly effective at inducing protective immunity. However, weak antibody responses are seen in some individuals, and cellular correlates of immunity remain poorly defined, especially for B cells. Here we used unbiased approaches to longitudinally dissect primary antibody, plasmablast, and memory B cell (MBC) responses to the two-dose mRNA-1273 vaccine in SARS-CoV-2-naive adults. Coordinated immunoglobulin A (IgA) and IgG antibody responses were preceded by bursts of spike-specific plasmablasts after both doses but earlier and more intensely after dose 2. While antibody and B cell cellular responses were generally robust, they also varied within the cohort and decreased over time after a dose-2 peak. Both antigen-nonspecific postvaccination plasmablast frequency after dose 1 and their spike-specific counterparts early after dose 2 correlated with subsequent antibody levels. This correlation between early plasmablasts and antibodies remained for titers measured at 6 months after vaccination. Several distinct antigen-specific MBC populations emerged postvaccination with varying kinetics, including two MBC populations that correlated with 2- and 6-month antibody titers. Both were IgG-expressing MBCs: one less mature, appearing as a correlate after the first dose, while the other MBC correlate showed a more mature and resting phenotype, emerging as a correlate later after dose 2. This latter MBC was also a major contributor to the sustained spike-specific MBC response observed at month 6. Thus, these plasmablasts and MBCs that emerged after both the first and second doses with distinct kinetics are potential determinants of the magnitude and durability of antibodies in response to mRNA-based vaccination.

RESUMO

We report an interesting case of an indeterminate MTB QuantiFERON for a 26-year-old healthy soldier planned for a routine field exercise to Brunei. Further medical history revealed that the patient had a Moderna mRNA Covid-19 vaccine the day before his MTB QuantiFERON test. The patient was subsequently asked to repeat a T-spot test which was non-reactive, there were no longer any issues with the positive control for the T-spot test. Current Covid-19 research suggests that infection causes a dysregulation of the immune system, perhaps this might also be extrapolated where a Covid-19 vaccine might provoke an immune response which might interfere with some immunological assays. In summary there should be more research invested into the immunological interactions that the newly developed Covid-19 vaccinations have with our existing immunological tests such as QuantiFERON tests which forms a key cornerstone in our fight against tuberculosis.

RESUMO

The mRNA-1273 (Moderna) COVID-19 vaccine is a lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated, nucleoside-modified mRNA vaccine encoding the stabilized prefusion spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. During December 2020, the vaccine was granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) issued an interim recommendation for use among persons aged ≥18 years (1), which was adopted by CDC. During December 19, 2020­January 30, 2022, approximately 204 million doses of Moderna COVID-19 vaccine were administered in the United States (2) as a primary series of 2 intramuscular doses (100 µg [0.5 mL] each) 4 weeks apart. On January 31, 2022, FDA approved a Biologics License Application (BLA) for use of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine (Spikevax, ModernaTX, Inc.) in persons aged ≥18 years (3). On February 4, 2022, the ACIP COVID-19 Vaccines Work Group conclusions regarding recommendations for the use of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine were presented to ACIP at a public meeting. The Work Group's deliberations were based on the Evidence to Recommendation (EtR) Framework,* which incorporates the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach† to rank evidence quality. In addition to initial clinical trial data, ACIP considered new information gathered in the 12 months since issuance of the interim recommendations, including additional follow-up time in the clinical trial, real-world vaccine effectiveness studies, and postauthorization vaccine safety monitoring. ACIP also considered comparisons of mRNA vaccine effectiveness and safety in real-world settings when first doses were administered 8 weeks apart instead of the original intervals used in clinical trials (3 weeks for BNT162b2 [Pfizer-BioNTech] COVID-19 vaccine and 4 weeks for Moderna COVID-19 vaccine). Based on this evidence, CDC has provided guidance that an 8-week interval might be optimal for some adolescents and adults. The additional information gathered since the issuance of the interim recommendations increased certainty that the benefits of preventing symptomatic and asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection, hospitalization, and death outweigh vaccine-associated risks of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. On February 4, 2022, ACIP modified its interim recommendation to a standard recommendation§ for use of the fully licensed Moderna COVID-19 vaccine in persons aged ≥18 years.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines have demonstrated efficacy and effectiveness in preventing symptomatic COVID-19, while being relatively safe in trial studies. However, vaccine breakthrough infections have been reported. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to identify risk factors associated with COVID-19 breakthrough infections among fully mRNA-vaccinated individuals. METHODS: We conducted a series of observational retrospective analyses using the electronic health records (EHRs) of the Columbia University Irving Medical Center/New York Presbyterian (CUIMC/NYP) up to September 21, 2021. New York City (NYC) adult residences with at least 1 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) record were included in this analysis. Poisson regression was performed to assess the association between the breakthrough infection rate in vaccinated individuals and multiple risk factors-including vaccine brand, demographics, and underlying conditions-while adjusting for calendar month, prior number of visits, and observational days in the EHR. RESULTS: The overall estimated breakthrough infection rate was 0.16 (95% CI 0.14-0.18). Individuals who were vaccinated with Pfizer/BNT162b2 (incidence rate ratio [IRR] against Moderna/mRNA-1273=1.66, 95% CI 1.17-2.35) were male (IRR against female=1.47, 95% CI 1.11-1.94) and had compromised immune systems (IRR=1.48, 95% CI 1.09-2.00) were at the highest risk for breakthrough infections. Among all underlying conditions, those with primary immunodeficiency, a history of organ transplant, an active tumor, use of immunosuppressant medications, or Alzheimer disease were at the highest risk. CONCLUSIONS: Although we found both mRNA vaccines were effective, Moderna/mRNA-1273 had a lower incidence rate of breakthrough infections. Immunocompromised and male individuals were among the highest risk groups experiencing breakthrough infections. Given the rapidly changing nature of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, continued monitoring and a generalizable analysis pipeline are warranted to inform quick updates on vaccine effectiveness in real time.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Venous thromboembolism (VTE)-including deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST)-may occur early after vaccination against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We sought to describe the site, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of VTE after vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. METHODS: In a prospective study using the Registro Informatizado de Enfermedad TromboEmbólica (RIETE) platform, patients with VTE 4-30 days after vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 (1 February 2021 through 30 April 2021) were included. VTE patients recruited from the same centers into RIETE in the same months in 2018-2019 were selected as the reference group. All-cause mortality and major bleeding were the main study outcomes. RESULTS: As of 30 April 2020, 102 patients with post-vaccination VTEs had been identified (28 after adenovirus-based vaccination [ChAdOx1 nCov-19; AstraZeneca] and 74 after mRNA-based vaccination [mRNA-1273; Moderna, and BNT162b2; Pfizer]). Compared with 911 historical controls, patients with VTE after adenovirus-based vaccination more frequently had CVST (10.7% vs. 0.4%, p < 0.001) or thrombosis at multiple sites (17.9% vs. 1.3%, p < 0.001), more frequently had thrombocytopenia (40.7% vs. 14.7%, p < 0.001), and had higher 14-day mortality (14.3% vs. 0.7%; odds ratio [OR]: 25.1; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.7-94.9) and major bleeding rates (10.3% vs. 1.0%, OR: 12.03, 95% CI: 3.07-47.13). The site of thrombosis, accompanying thrombocytopenia, and 14-day mortality rates were not significantly different for patients with VTE after mRNA-based vaccination, compared with historical controls. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with historical controls, VTE after adenovirus-based vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is accompanied by thrombocytopenia, occurs in unusual sites, and is associated with worse clinical outcomes.

RESUMO

The novel mRNA-based vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 display encouraging safety and efficacy profiles. However, there is a paucity of data regarding their immunogenicity and safety in patients with liver diseases (PWLD), especially in those with cirrhosis. We prospectively assessed anti-SARS-CoV-2 S-spike IgG antibodies and neutralizing activity in fully vaccinated PWLD (n = 87) and controls (n = 40). Seroconversion rates were 97.4% (37/38) in cirrhotic PWLD, 87.8% (43/49) in non-cirrhotic PWLD and 100% (40/40) in controls. Adequate neutralizing activity was detected in 92.1% (35/38), 87.8% (43/49) and 100% (40/40) of cirrhotics, non-cirrhotics and controls, respectively. On multivariable analysis, immunosuppressive treatment was negatively correlated with anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers (coefficient (SE): -2.716 (0.634), p < 0.001) and neutralizing activity (coefficient (SE): -24.379 (4.582), p < 0.001), while age was negatively correlated only with neutralizing activity (coefficient (SE): -0.31(0.14), p = 0.028). A total of 52 responder PWLD were reassessed approximately 3 months post-vaccination and no differences were detected in humoral responses between cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic PWLD. No significant side effects were noted post vaccination, while no symptomatic breakthrough infections were reported during a 6-month follow up. Overall, our study shows that m-RNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are safe and efficacious in PWLD. However, PWLD under immunosuppressive treatment and those of advanced age should probably be more closely monitored after vaccination.

RESUMO

Understanding the magnitude of responses to vaccination during the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is essential for ultimate mitigation of the disease. Here, we describe a cohort of 102 subjects (70 COVID-19-naïve, 32 COVID-19-experienced) who received two doses of one of the mRNA vaccines (BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) and mRNA-1273 (Moderna)). We document that a single exposure to antigen via infection or vaccination induces a variable antibody response which is affected by age, gender, race, and co-morbidities. In response to a second antigen dose, both COVID-19-naïve and experienced subjects exhibited elevated levels of anti-spike and SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing activity; however, COVID-19-experienced individuals achieved higher antibody levels and neutralization activity as a group. The COVID-19-experienced subjects exhibited no significant increase in antibody or neutralization titer in response to the second vaccine dose (i.e., third antigen exposure). Finally, we found that COVID-19-naïve individuals who received the Moderna vaccine exhibited a more robust boost response to the second vaccine dose (p = 0.004) as compared to the response to Pfizer-BioNTech. Ongoing studies with this cohort will continue to contribute to our understanding of the range and durability of responses to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines.
