摘要
Seroconversion rates after COVID-19 vaccination are significantly lower in kidney transplant recipients compared to healthy cohorts. Adaptive immunization strategies are needed to protect these patients from COVID-19. In this prospective observational cohort study, we enrolled 76 kidney transplant recipients with no seroresponse after at least three COVID-19 vaccinations to receive an additional mRNA-1273 vaccination (full dose, 100 mu g). Mycophenolic acid was withdrawn in 43 selected patients 5-7 days prior to vaccination and remained paused for 4 additional weeks after vaccination. SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies and neutralization of the delta and omicron variants were determined using a live-virus assay 4 weeks after vaccination. In patients with temporary mycophenolic acid withdrawal, donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies and donor-derived cell-free DNA were monitored before withdrawal and at follow-up. SARS-CoV-2 specific antibodies significantly increased in kidney transplant recipients after additional COVID-19 vaccination. The effect was most pronounced in individuals in whom mycophenolic acid was withdrawn during vaccination. Higher SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody titers were associated with better neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 delta and omicron variants. In patients with short-term withdrawal of mycophenolic acid, graft function and donor-derived cell-free DNA remained stable. No acute rejection episode occurred during short-term follow-up. However, resurgence of prior anti-HLA donor-specific antibodies was detected in 7 patients.
