Immune biomarkers to predict SARS-CoV-2 vaccine effectiveness in patients with hematological malignancies
2021
AbstractThere is evidence of reduced SARS-CoV-2 vaccine effectiveness in patients with hematological malignancies. We hypothesized that tumor and treatment-related immunosuppression can be depicted in peripheral blood, and that immune profiling prior to vaccination can help predict immunogenicity. We performed a comprehensive immunological characterization of 83 hematological patients before vaccination and measured IgM, IgG, and IgA antibody response to four viral antigens at day +7 after second-dose COVID-19 vaccination using multidimensional and computational flow cytometry. Health care practitioners of similar age were the control group (n = 102). Forty-four out of 59 immune cell types …

seroconversion rate at 48 weeks were 40.7% and 37% in PEG-IFN a-2a group, respectively, which are both higher than those in ETV group (16.7% and 13.3%, P all 0.05). The mean qHBsAg level in PEG-IFN a-2a group declined over time during treatment. The qHBsAg level at 48 weeks was significantly lower than that in ETV group ((2866.0±2580.4) vs (4335.8±2650.0) IU/mL, P = 0.027). A greater HBsAg decline was observed in HBeAg seroconverters compared with nonseroconverters. The decline from baseline was significantly different between seroconverters and non-seroconverters especially at 36 weeks ((1763.4±3116.2) vs (1333.5±2483.4) IU/mL, P = 0.036), and 48 weeks (1979.6±2897.1) vs (1631.8±2395.8) IU…
