In order to investigate safety and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine third dose in people living with HIV (PLWH), we analyze anti-RBD, microneutralization assay and IFN-γ production in 216 PLWH on ART with advanced disease (CD4 count <200 cell/mm and/or previous AIDS) receiving the third dose of a mRNA vaccine (BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273) after a median of 142 days from the second dose. Median age is 54 years, median CD4 nadir 45 cell/mm (20-122), 93% HIV-RNA < 50 c/mL. In 68% of PLWH at least one side-effect, generally mild, is recorded. Humoral response after the third dose was strong and higher than that achieved with the second dose (>2 log difference), especially when a heterologous combination with mRNA-1273 as third shot is used. In contrast, cell-mediated immunity remain stable. Our data support usefulness of third dose in PLWH currently receiving suppressive ART who presented with severe immune dysregulation.
为了研究在接受抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)且病情较严重(CD4 计数<200 个/立方毫米和/或既往有艾滋病)的艾滋病毒感染者(PLWH)中接种第三剂 SARS-CoV-2 疫苗的安全性和免疫原性,我们分析了 216 名接受了第三剂 mRNA 疫苗(BNT162b2 或 mRNA-1273)的 PLWH 中的抗 RBD、微量中和试验和 IFN-γ产生情况,他们在第二剂接种后中位数 142 天接受了第三剂疫苗。中位年龄为 54 岁,中位 CD4 计数最低值为 45 个/立方毫米(20-122),93%的 HIV-RNA<50 c/mL。在 68%的 PLWH 中记录到至少一种副作用,通常为轻度。第三剂接种后的体液免疫反应强烈且高于第二剂(>2 个对数差异),尤其是使用 mRNA-1273 作为第三剂进行异源组合时。相比之下,细胞介导的免疫保持稳定。我们的数据支持在目前接受抑制性 ART 且存在严重免疫失调的 PLWH 中使用第三剂疫苗。
