Safety and Immunogenicity of the mRNA-1273 Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccine in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

Le résumé fourni par la source

BACKGROUND: Solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) are at high risk for severe COVID-19. METHODS: This open-label, phase 3b trial evaluated mRNA-1273 in 137 kidney and 77 liver SOTRs and 20 immunocompetent participants. In part A, SOTRs received three 100-µg doses of mRNA-1273; immunocompetent participants received 2 doses. In part B, an additional 100-µg dose was offered ≥4 months after the primary series. Here, we report interim trial results. RESULTS: mRNA-1273 was well-tolerated in SOTRs. Four serious adverse events were considered vaccine related by the investigator in 3 SOTRs with preexisting comorbidities. No vaccine-related biopsy-proven organ rejection events or deaths were reported. mRNA-1273 elicited modest neutralizing antibody responses after dose 2 and improved responses after dose 3 in SOTRs. Post-dose 3 responses among liver SOTRs were comparable to post-dose 2 responses in immunocompetent participants. Post-additional dose responses were increased in SOTRs, regardless of primary series vaccination. In liver SOTRs, post-additional dose responses were ∼3-fold higher versus post-dose 2 but lower than immunocompetent participant responses. Most kidney SOTRs received multiple immunosuppressants and had reduced antibody responses versus liver SOTRs. CONCLUSIONS: mRNA-1273 was well-tolerated, and dose 3 and the additional dose improved antibody responses among SOTRs. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: NCT04860297.
