Severe immunosuppression is related to poorer immunogenicity to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines among people living with HIV
Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 available vaccines among people living with HIV (PLWH) after a complete vaccination scheme, and determine predictors of seroconversion.

| Sumario: | Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 available vaccines among people living with HIV (PLWH) after a complete vaccination scheme, and determine predictors of seroconversion. Methods This multicentre prospective cohort study included 420 PLWH who had received a standard immunization, either with mRNA or adenoviral-vectored COVID-19 vaccines. Antibody response was evaluated within 1 to 2 months after the last dose of the vaccine with a quantitative determination of antitrimeric spike protein-specific IgG antibodies and IgG neutralizing antibodies. Results Overall, 384 of 420 PLWH (91%) showed antibody response to vaccination. Seroconversion was observed in 308 of 326 individuals with cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) counts ≥350 cells/mm3 (95%), 55 of 61 PLWH with 200 to 349 cells/mm3 (90%), and 21 of 33 PLWH with CD4 counts <200 cells/mm3 (64%; p < 0.001). The median log10 IgG neutralization levels were 2.4 IU/mL (Q1–Q3, 1.0–3.1) among PLWH with CD4 counts <200 cells/mm3, 3.1 IU/mL (Q1–Q3, 2.8–3.4) for the 200 to 349 cells/mm3 group, and 3.1 IU/mL (Q1–Q3, 2.7–3.4) for PLWH with CD4 counts ≥350 cells/mm3 (p = 0.016). In the multivariate analysis, CD4 counts ≥350 cells/mm3 (OR: 7.10; 95% CI, 1.91–26.46; p = 0.004) and receiving mRNA-vectored COVID-19 vaccines (OR: 8.19; 95% CI, 3.24–20.70; p ≤ 0.001) were independently associated with a higher probability of response to vaccination. Discussion HIV-related immunosuppression impairs the antibody response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. Specific vaccination schemes should be urgently tailored in this setting, particularly in patients with CD4 cell counts <200 cells/μL. Adenoviral-vectored vaccines should be avoided in PLWH whenever possible. |
