Sequential cellular and humoral responses after repetitive COVID-19 vaccination in patients treated with anti-CD20 antibodies. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study evaluated humoral (antibody) and cellular immune responses in 22 patients before and after their third and fourth vaccinations.
  • Results showed that antibody responses improved as B-cell depletion resolved, and cellular responses increased steadily, indicating that repetitive vaccinations may help these patients until their B-cells recover.

Article Abstract

Patients treated with anti-CD20 antibodies for haematological disorders have insufficient immune responses to mRNA COVID-19 vaccines; however, relevant sequential data are lacking. We sequentially evaluated the humoral and cellular immune responses in 22 patients who had received anti-CD20 antibodies within 12 months before the first vaccination, before and after the third and fourth vaccinations. Humoral responses improved gradually, along with the resolution of B-cell depletion. A steady increase was noted in cellular responses, regardless of the B-cell status. Our findings suggest the potential benefit of repeated vaccinations in these patients until B-cell recovery is confirmed while enhancing cellular responses.

Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is a disorder mediated by autoantibodies against the GluN1 subunit of NMDAR. It occurs with severe neuropsychiatric symptoms that often improve with immunotherapy. Clinical studies and animal models based on patients' antibody transfer or NMDAR immunization suggest that the autoantibodies play a major pathogenic role.

Ocrelizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody, which acts as an anti-CD20 antibody. It is used as a treatment of both relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and Progressive types. The aim of this study is to report the first patient with alopecia universalis after switching from rituximab to ocrelizumab.

Antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) by monocytes and macrophages contributes significantly to the efficacy of many therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), including anti-CD20 rituximab (RTX) targeting CD20 B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). However, ADCP is constrained by various immune checkpoints, notably the anti-phagocytic CD47 molecule, necessitating strategies to overcome this resistance. We have previously shown that the IgG2 isotype of RTX induces CD20-mediated apoptosis in B-cell lymphoma cells and, when combined with RTX-IgG1 or RTX-IgG3 mAbs, can significantly enhance Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis.

Background: Relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) is a chronic, inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. Ublituximab, an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (mAb), is indicated for the treatment of RMS. We performed a systematic literature review (SLR) to identify randomized trials reporting the clinical efficacy and tolerability of ublituximab or comparator disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) for treatment of RMS, and assessed their comparative effects using network meta-analysis (NMA).

Aims: To evaluate antibody response to mRNA vaccine, identify subgroups with poor response and to determine long-term antibody durability in hematological patients.

Materials And Methods: We have vaccinated 292 patients with all hematological malignancies with a third dose of mRNA COMIRNATY vaccine with a 12-month follow-up period in our center in Ostrava, Czech Republic.

Results: Antibody response for the whole cohort exceeded 74% through the whole 12-month follow-up.
