Sci Bull (Beijing) 2024; 69:2456-2470. [PMID: 38942698 DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2024.02.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
Currently approved vaccines have been successful in preventing the severity of COVID-19 and hospitalization. These vaccines primarily induce humoral immune responses; however, highly transmissible and mutated variants, such as the Omicron variant, weaken the neutralization potential of the vaccines, thus, raising serious concerns about their efficacy. Additionally, while neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) tend to wane more rapidly than cell-mediated immunity, long-lasting T cells typically prevent severe viral illness by directly killing infected cells or aiding other immune cells. Importantly, T cells are more cross-reactive than antibodies, thus, highly mutated variants are less likely to escape lasting broadly cross-reactive T cell immunity. Therefore, T cell antigen-based human coronavirus (HCoV) vaccines with the potential to serve as a supplementary weapon to combat emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants with resistance to nAbs are urgently needed. Alternatively, T cell antigens could also be included in B cell antigen-based vaccines to strengthen vaccine efficacy. This review summarizes recent advancements in research and development of vaccines containing T cell antigens or both T and B cell antigens derived from proteins of SARS-CoV-2 variants and/or other HCoVs based on different vaccine platforms.

Longitudinal study of immunity to SARS-CoV2 in ocrelizumab-treated MS patients up to 2 years after COVID-19 vaccination. Ann Clin Transl Neurol 2024; 11:1750-1764. [PMID: 38713096 PMCID: PMC11251481 DOI: 10.1002/acn3.52081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES (1) To plot the trajectory of humoral and cellular immune responses to the primary (two-dose) COVID-19 mRNA series and the third/booster dose in B-cell-depleted multiple sclerosis (MS) patients up to 2 years post-vaccination; (2) to identify predictors of immune responses to vaccination; and (3) to assess the impact of intercurrent COVID-19 infections on SARS CoV-2-specific immunity. METHODS Sixty ocrelizumab-treated MS patients were enrolled from NYU (New York) and University of Colorado (Anschutz) MS Centers. Samples were collected pre-vaccination, and then 4, 12, 24, and 48 weeks post-primary series, and 4, 12, 24, and 48 weeks post-booster. Binding anti-Spike antibody responses were assessed with multiplex bead-based immunoassay (MBI) and electrochemiluminescence (Elecsys®, Roche Diagnostics), and neutralizing antibody responses with live-virus immunofluorescence-based microneutralization assay. Spike-specific cellular responses were assessed with IFNγ/IL-2 ELISpot (Invitrogen) and, in a subset, by sequencing complementarity determining regions (CDR)-3 within T-cell receptors (Adaptive Biotechnologies). A linear mixed-effect model was used to compare antibody and cytokine levels across time points. Multivariate analyses identified predictors of immune responses. RESULTS The primary vaccination induced an 11- to 208-fold increase in binding and neutralizing antibody levels and a 3- to 4-fold increase in IFNγ/IL-2 responses, followed by a modest decline in antibody but not cytokine responses. Booster dose induced a further 3- to 5-fold increase in binding antibodies and 4- to 5-fold increase in IFNγ/IL-2, which were maintained for up to 1 year. Infections had a variable impact on immunity. INTERPRETATION Humoral and cellular benefits of COVID-19 vaccination in B-cell-depleted MS patients were sustained for up to 2 years when booster doses were administered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiologic studies on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) have focused on the first waves of the pandemic until early 2021. OBJECTIVES We aimed to extend these data from the onset of the pandemic to the global coverage by vaccination in summer 2022. METHODS This retrospective, multicenter observational study analyzed COVISEP registry data on reported COVID-19 cases in pwMS between January 2020 and July 2022. Severe COVID-19 was defined as hospitalization or higher severity. RESULTS Among 2584 pwMS with confirmed/highly suspected COVID-19, severe infection rates declined from 14.6% preomicron wave to 5.7% during omicron wave (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis identified age (odds ratio (OR) = 1.43, 95% confidence interval (CI) = [1.25-1.64] per 10 years), male sex (OR = 2.01, 95% CI = [1.51-2.67]), obesity (OR = 2.36, 95% CI = [1.52-3.68]), cardiac comorbidities (OR = 2.36, 95% CI = [1.46-3.83]), higher Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores (OR = 2.09, 95% CI = [1.43-3.06] for EDSS 3-5.5 and OR = 4.53, 95% CI = [3.04-6.75] for EDSS ⩾6), and anti-CD20 therapies (OR = 2.67, 95% CI = [1.85-3.87]) as risk factors for COVID-19 severity. Vaccinated individuals experienced less severe COVID-19, whether on (risk ratio (RR) = 0.64, 95% CI = [0.60-0.69]) or off (RR = 0.32, 95% CI = [0.30-0.33]) anti-CD20. DISCUSSION In pwMS, consistent risk factors were anti-CD20 therapies and neurological disability, emerging as vital drivers of COVID-19 severity regardless of wave, period, or vaccination status.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis remains one of the most common causes of neurological disability in the young adult population (aged 18-40 years). Novel pathophysiological findings underline the importance of the interaction between genetics and environment. Improvements in diagnostic criteria, harmonised guidelines for MRI, and globalised treatment recommendations have led to more accurate diagnosis and an earlier start of effective immunomodulatory treatment than previously. Understanding and capturing the long prodromal multiple sclerosis period would further improve diagnostic abilities and thus treatment initiation, eventually improving long-term disease outcomes. The large portfolio of currently available medications paved the way for personalised therapeutic strategies that will balance safety and effectiveness. Incorporation of cognitive interventions, lifestyle recommendations, and management of non-neurological comorbidities could further improve quality of life and outcomes. Future challenges include the development of medications that successfully target the neurodegenerative aspect of the disease and creation of sensitive imaging and fluid biomarkers that can effectively predict and monitor disease changes.

Is vaccine response to SARS-CoV-2 preserved after switching to anti-CD20 therapies in patients with multiple sclerosis or related disorders? J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 2023; 95:19-28. [PMID: 37479463 DOI: 10.1136/jnnp-2023-331770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 07/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is recommended prior to introducing anti-CD20 therapies, limited data are available regarding the evolution of post-vaccinal immunity. METHODS This retrospective study compared anti-Spike antibody titres at 6 and 12 months from SARS-CoV-2 vaccination between patients vaccinated before switching to anti-CD20 ('Switch') and two control groups: (1) patients vaccinated under disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) other than fingolimod and anti-CD20 ('Other DMTs'); (2) patients vaccinated on anti-CD20 ('Anti-CD20'). Anti-Spike-specific T-cell responses were compared between 'Switch' and 'Anti-CD20' groups. RESULTS Fifty-three patients were included in the 'Switch' group, 54 in the 'Other DMTs' group and 141 in the 'Anti-CD20' group. At 6 months, in the subset of patients who received a booster dose, the 'Switch' group had lower anti-Spike titres compared with the 'Other DMTs' group (median 241.0 IQR (88.0; 504.0) BAU/mL vs 2034 (1155; 4634) BAU/mL, p<0.001), and less patients in the 'Switch' group reached the protective threshold of 264 BAU/mL. The 'Switch' group had higher anti-Spike titres than the 'Anti-CD20' group (7.5 (0.0; 62.1) BAU/mL, p=0.001). Anti-Spike titres were not different between the 'Switch' and 'Other DMTs' groups before booster administration. These results were similar at 12 months. Spike-specific T-cell positivity was similar between the 'Switch' and 'Anti-CD20' groups at 6 and 12 months (60.4% vs 61.0%, p=0.53, and 79.4% vs 87.5%, p=0.31, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Despite a primary vaccination performed before the first anti-CD20 cycle, our results suggest weaker immune responses at 6 and 12 months and decreased booster efficacy after introducing anti-CD20. Patients vaccinated prior to anti-CD20 introduction might falsely be considered as fully protected by vaccination.

Clin Chim Acta 2023; 551:117586. [PMID: 37871761 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2023.117586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/06/2023] [Indexed: 10/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Clear and effective indicators for early detection of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are insufficient. We investigated the clinical value of the plasma SARS-CoV-2 N antigen (plasma N antigen) for severe COVID-19 early identification and disease progression monitoring. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study compared the diagnostic value of plasma N antigen levels detected within two days after hospital admission in 957 patients with COVID-19 during the BA2.2 outbreak in Shanghai (April 6-June 15, 2022). A follow-up study analyzed the plasma N antigen prognostic value in 274 non-severe patients, and a longitudinal study evaluated its continuous monitoring value in 16 patients with COVID-19 grade changes. RESULTS Plasma N antigen concentrations were significantly higher in severely ill than in non-severely ill patients. The plasma N antigen was superior to nasopharyngeal nucleic acid CT values and established COVID-19 blood biomarkers in identifying severe COVID-19. Patients with high plasma N-antigen concentrations at initial admission were more prone to developing severe COVID-19. The changes in plasma N antigen concentrations were consistent with disease progression. Two logistic regression models, including and excluding plasma N antigen, were established, with model 1 (including plasma N antigen) (AUC = 0.971, 0.958-0.980) yielding a better diagnostic value for severe COVID-19 than Model 2 (plasma N antigen excluded). CONCLUSION The plasma N antigen is superior to nasopharyngeal nucleic acids and established COVID-19 blood biomarkers for severe COVID-19 early recognition and progression monitoring, enabling the most accurate patient triaging and efficient utilization of medical resources.

BACKGROUND The use and potential benefit of anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for the treatment of mild-to-moderate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in people living with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) remains poorly studied. The objective of this study is to describe the therapeutic use of anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAbs among pwMS. METHODS This retrospective cohort study used electronic medical records data from the TriNetX Dataworks USA Network and included adult pwMS, diagnosed with COVID-19, who received anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAbs in the outpatient setting between November 2020 and April 2022. We analyzed COVID-19 severity at anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAb initiation and up to 30 days, stratified by before/after emergence of Omicron variant and by disease-modifying therapy (DMT). RESULTS The study included 434 pwMS treated with anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAbs for mild-to-moderate COVID-19, including 270 patients before and 174 after Omicron emergence. Most pwMS were female (80.2%), mean age (SD) was 51.5 (12.5) years. Two-hundred-and-five patients were on DMTs, 51% of whom received anti-CD20s. One patient with moderate COVID-19 was hospitalized whilst receiving glatiramer acetate. No patients required intensive care and there were no deaths. COVID-19 outcomes were comparable following anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAb therapy in patients receiving different DMTs. CONCLUSION Anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAb treatment for pwMS with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 may reduce the risk of COVID-19-related hospitalization and death.

Long-Term Immune Response Profiles to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination and Infection in People with Multiple Sclerosis on Anti-CD20 Therapy. Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:1464.

Abstract
Our objective was to analyze longitudinal cellular and humoral immune responses to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) on B-cell depleting treatment (BCDT) compared to pwMS without immunotherapy. We further evaluated the impact of COVID-19 infection and vaccination timing. PwMS (n = 439) on BCDT (ocrelizumab, rituximab, ofatumumab) or without immunotherapy were recruited for this prospective cohort study between June 2021 and June 2022. SARS-CoV-2 spike-specific antibodies and interferon-γ release of CD4 and CD8 T-cells upon stimulation with spike protein peptide pools were analyzed at different timepoints (after primary vaccination, 3 and 6 months after primary vaccination, after booster vaccination, 3 months after booster). Humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 was consistently lower whereas T-cell response was higher in patients with BCDT compared to controls. Cellular and humoral responses decreased over time after primary vaccination and increased again upon booster vaccination, with significantly higher antibody titers after booster than after primary vaccination in both untreated and B-cell-depleted pwMS. COVID-19 infection further led to a significant increase in SARS-CoV-2-specific responses. Despite attenuated B-cell responses, a third vaccination for patients with BCDT seems recommendable, since at least partial protection can be expected from the strong T-cell response. Moreover, our data show that an assessment of T-cell responses may be helpful in B-cell-depleted patients to evaluate the efficacy of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE An enhanced severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine regimen could improve humoral vaccine response in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) treated by anti-CD20. The aim was to evaluate the serological response and the neutralizing activity after BNT162b2 primary and booster vaccination in MS patients, including patients on anti-CD20 receiving a primary vaccine regimen enhanced with three injections. METHODS In this prospective longitudinal cohort study of 90 patients (47 on anti-CD20, 10 on fingolimod, 33 on natalizumab, dimethylfumarate or teriflunomide), anti-SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain (RBD) immunoglobulin G antibodies were quantified and their neutralization capacity was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (GenScript) and a virus neutralization test against B.1 historical strain, Delta and Omicron variants, before and after three to four BNT162b2 injections. RESULTS After the primary vaccination scheme, the anti-RBD positivity rate was strongly decreased in patients on anti-CD20 (28% [15%; 44%] after two shots, 45% [29%; 62%] after three shots) and fingolimod (50% [16%; 84%]) compared to other treatments (100% [90%; 100%]). Neutralization activity was also decreased in patients on anti-CD20 and fingolimod, and notably low for the Omicron variant in all patients (0%-22%). Delayed booster vaccination was performed in 54 patients, leading to a mild increase of anti-RBD seropositivity in patients on anti-CD20 although it was still lower compared to other treatments (65% [43%; 84%] vs. 100% [87%; 100%] respectively). After a booster, Omicron neutralization activity remained low on anti-CD20 and fingolimod treated patients but was strongly increased in patients on other treatments (91% [72%; 99%]). DISCUSSION In MS patients on anti-CD20, an enhanced primary vaccination scheme moderately increased anti-RBD seropositivity and anti-RBD antibody titre, but neutralization activity remained modest even after a fourth booster injection. TRIAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION COVIVAC-ID, NCT04844489, first patient included on 20 April 2021.

Influence of Disease Modifying Treatment, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Variants and Vaccination on Coronavirus Disease 2019 Risk and Outcome in Multiple Sclerosis and Neuromyelitis Optica. J Clin Med 2023; 12:5551. [PMID: 37685618 PMCID: PMC10488002 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12175551] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 08/20/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Patients suffering from neuro-inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) remain vulnerable to COVID-19. We investigated the risk of COVID-19 in MS and NMOSD patients over time, considering the impact of disease-modifying treatments (DMTs), vaccinations, and the spread of new SARS-CoV-2 variants. We retrospectively collected clinical information regarding all MS and NMOSD consecutive patients seen at the Neurocenter of Southern Switzerland. Logistic regression was used to test variables (age, sex, vaccination status, DMT at vaccination, DMT at infection, disease course, disability scores, prevalent SARS-CoV-2 variant) for association with COVID-19 risk and severe outcome (hospitalization or death). We included 352 individuals in this study; 315 (89.5%) received ≥1 dose of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA-vaccine, and 134 (38.1%) experienced COVID-19 between March 2020 and August 2022. COVID-19 risk decreased in vaccinated patients (OR = 0.10, 95% CI = 0.05-0.20, p < 0.001) and increased in anti-CD20 therapies (OR = 2.26, 95% CI = 1.28-4.00, p = 0.005). Anti-CD20 treatment was associated with severe COVID-19 (OR = 27.41, 95% CI = 3.68-204.25, p = 0.001), whereas Omicron infections were milder compared to Alpha infections (OR = 0.03, 95% CI = 0.01-0.35, p = 0.006). We confirmed a protective effect of mRNA vaccines on COVID-19 risk, which is impaired by anti-CD20 treatment. We provided evidence for milder COVID-19 with the Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant, which should not, however, discourage vaccinations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the new highly active drugs available for people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS), vaccination becomes an essential part of the risk management strategy. OBJECTIVE To develop a European evidence-based consensus for the vaccination strategy of pwMS who are candidates for disease-modifying therapies (DMTs). METHODS This work was conducted by a multidisciplinary working group using formal consensus methodology. Clinical questions (defined as population, interventions, and outcomes) considered all authorized DMTs and vaccines. A systematic literature search was conducted and quality of evidence was defined according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine Levels of Evidence. The recommendations were formulated based on the quality of evidence and the risk-benefit balance. RESULTS Seven questions, encompassing vaccine safety, vaccine effectiveness, global vaccination strategy and vaccination in sub-populations (pediatric, pregnant women, elderly and international travelers) were considered. A narrative description of the evidence considering published studies, guidelines, and position statements is presented. A total of 53 recommendations were agreed by the working group after three rounds of consensus. CONCLUSION This first European consensus on vaccination in pwMS proposes the best vaccination strategy according to current evidence and expert knowledge, with the goal of homogenizing the immunization practices in pwMS.

Front Neurol 2023; 14:1158487.

Abstract
Background Anti-CD20 is a highly effective therapy for multiple sclerosis (MS), a disease with multiple abnormalities in function of B and T cells and innate immune cells. Anti-CD20 therapy depletes B cells, which alters antibody production and has diverse effects on B cell immunity. These changes potentially affect immunity beyond B cells in MS. Objective Determine if anti-CD20 therapy effects non-B cell, as well as B cell, gene expression, and serum protein levels. Methods Samples were collected from 10 healthy controls and from clinically stable relapsing-remitting MS - 10 untreated, 9 interferon-β-treated, and 15 ocrelizumab-treated patients were studied before, and 2 weeks and 6 months after, the first anti-CD20 infusion. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were analyzed with sensitive, 135,000-transcript RNA expression microarrays, using stringent criteria. Gene expression was compared to 43 MS-relevant serum immune and neurotrophic proteins, using multiplex protein assays. Results Anti-CD20 therapy reduced expression of 413 total genes and 185 B-cell-regulated genes at 2 weeks vs. pre-therapy. Expression of 19 (15%) of these B cell genes returned toward baseline by 6 months, including genes for the B cell activation protein, CD79A, and for immunoglobulin A, D, and G heavy chains. Expression pathways for Th17 and CD4 regulatory T-cell (Treg) development, differentiation, and proliferation also quieted. In contrast, expression increased in Th1 and myeloid cell antiviral, pro-inflammatory, and toll-like receptor (TLR) gene pathways. Conclusion These findings have clinical implications. B cell gene expression diminishes 2 weeks after anti-CD20 antibody infusion, but begins to rebound by 6 months. This suggests that the optimum time for vaccination is soon before reinfusion of anti-CD20 therapy. In addition, at 6 months, there is enhanced Th1 cell gene expression and induction of innate immune response genes and TLR expression, which can enhance anti-viral and anti-tumor immunity. This may compensate for diminished B cell gene expression after therapy. These data suggest that anti-CD20 therapy has dynamic effect on B cells and causes a compensatory rise in Th1 and myeloid immunity.

Abstract
Background There is limited knowledge about T cell responses in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) after 3 doses of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mRNA vaccine. Objectives Assess the SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody and T cell responses in MS patients and healthy controls (HCs) after 2 doses (2-vax) and 3 doses (3-vax) of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination. Methods We studied seroconversion rates and T cell responses by flow cytometry in HC and MS patients on fingolimod or ocrelizumab. Results After 2-vax, 8/33 (24.2%) patients in ocrelizumab group, 5/7 (71.4%) in fingolimod group, and 29/29 (100%) in HC group (P = 5.7 × 10-11) seroconverted. After 3-vax, 9/22 (40.9%) patients in ocrelizumab group, 19/21 (90.5%) in fingolimod group, and 7/7 (100%) in HC group seroconverted (P = 0.0003). The percentage of SARS-CoV-2 peptide reactive total CD4+ T cells increased in HC and ocrelizumab group but not in fingolimod group after 2-vax and 3-vax (P < 0.0001). The percentage of IFNγ and TNFα producing total CD4+ and CD8+ T cells increased in fingolimod group as compared to HC and ocrelizumab group after 2-vax and 3-vax (P < 0.0001). Conclusions MS patients on ocrelizumab and fingolimod had attenuated humoral responses, but preserved cytokine producing T cell responses compared to HCs after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination. Clinical Trials Registration NCT05060354.

Longitudinal adaptive immune responses following sequential SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations in MS patients on anti-CD20 therapies and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulators. Mult Scler Relat Disord 2023; 70:104484. [PMID: 36608538 PMCID: PMC9794398 DOI: 10.1016/j.msard.2022.104484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adequate response to the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine represents an important treatment goal in caring for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Previous data so far have demonstrated lower spike-specific IgG responses following two SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations in MS patients treated with sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulators and anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) compared to other disease modifying therapies (DMTs). It is unknown whether subsequent vaccinations can augment antibody responses in these patients. OBJECTIVES The goal of this observational study was to determine the effects of a third SARS-CoV-2 vaccination on antibody and T cell responses in MS patients treated with anti-CD20 mAb or S1P receptor modulators. METHODS Vaccine responses in patients treated with anti-CD20 antibodies (ocrelizumab and ofatumumab) or S1P receptor modulators (fingolimod and siponimod) were evaluated before and after third SARS-CoV-2 vaccination as part of an ongoing longitudinal study. Total spike protein and spike receptor binding domain (RBD)-specific IgG responses were measured by Luminex bead-based assay. Spike-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses were measured by activation-induced marker expression. RESULTS MS patients and healthy controls were enrolled before and following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. A total of 31 MS patients (n = 10 ofatumumab, n = 13 ocrelizumab, n = 8 S1P) and 10 healthy controls were evaluated through three SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations. Compared to healthy controls, total spike IgG was significantly lower in anti-CD20 mAb-treated patients and spike RBD IgG was significantly lower in anti-CD20 mAb and S1P-treated patients following a third vaccination. While seropositivity was 100% in healthy controls after a third vaccination, total spike IgG and spike RBD IgG seropositivity were lower in ofatumumab (60% and 60%, respectively), ocrelizumab (85% and 46%, respectively), and S1P-treated patients (100% and 75%, respectively). Longer treatment duration, including prior treatment history, appeared to negatively impact antibody responses. Spike-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses were well maintained across all groups following a third vaccination. Finally, immune responses were also compared in patients who were vaccinated prior to or following ofatumumab treatment. Antibody responses were significantly higher in those patients who received their primary SARS-CoV-2 vaccination prior to initiating ofatumumab treatment. CONCLUSIONS This study adds to the evolving understanding of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine responses in people with MS treated with disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) known to suppress humoral immunity. Our findings provide important information for optimizing vaccine immunity in at-risk MS patient populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Depleting CD20+ B cells is the primary mechanism by which ocrelizumab (OCRE) is efficient in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). However, the exact role of OCRE on other immune cell subsets directly or indirectly remains elusive. The purpose of this study is to characterize the dynamics of peripheral immune cells of pwMS on OCRE. METHODS We collected blood samples from 38 pwMS before OCRE onset (T0) and at 6 and 12 months (T6, T12) after initiation. To cover the immune cell diversity, using mass cytometry time of flight, we designed a 38-parameter panel to analyze B, T, and innate immune cell markers and CNS migratory markers. In parallel, viral-specific CD8+ T-cell responses were assessed by the quantification of interferon-γ secretion using the enzyme-linked immunospot assay on cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, and influenza stimulations. RESULTS Beside B-cell depletion, we observed a loss in memory CD8+CD20+ and central memory CD8+ T cells but not in CD4+CD20+ T cells already at T6 and T12 (p < 0.001). The loss of memory CD8+ T cells correlated with a lower CXCR3 expression (p < 0.001) and CNS-related LFA-1 integrin expression (p < 0.001) as well as a reduced antiviral cellular immune response observed at both time points (p < 0.001). Of note, we did not observe major changes in the phenotype of the other cell types studied. Seven of 38 (18.4%) patients in our cohort presented with infections while on OCRE; 4 of which were switched from dimethyl fumarate. Finally, using a mixed linear model on mass cytometry data, we demonstrated that the immunomodulation induced by previous disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) was prolonged over the period of the study. DISCUSSION In addition to its well-known role on B cells, our data suggest that OCRE also acts on CD8+ T cells by depleting the memory compartment. These changes in CD8+ T cells may be an asset in the action of OCRE on MS course but might also contribute to explain the increased occurrence of infections in these patients. Finally, although more data are needed to confirm this observation, it suggests that clinicians should pay a special attention to an increased infection risk in pwMS switched from other DMTs to OCRE.

Abstract
Background People with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) on anti-CD20 therapies (aCD20) and fingolimod have shown inadequate humoral responses to COVID-19 vaccines. Objective The objective of the study was to pilot larger studies by demonstrating the safety and comparing the immunogenicity of different types of third doses in seronegative pwMS after two doses of BBIBP-CorV inactivated vaccine. Methods In December 2021, subject to receiving their third dose, being COVID-19-naiive, and receiving no corticosteroid within two months, we measured the level of anti-SARS-CoV-2-Spike IgG in pwMS seronegative after two shots of BBIBP-CorV inactivated vaccine. Results We included 20/29 pwMS who received adenoviral vector (AV), 7/29 who received inactivated, and 2/29 who received conjugated third doses. No serious adverse events were reported two weeks post-third dose. The pwMS receiving AV third doses showed significantly increased IgG concentrations, while only the ones not on aCD20 and fingolimod responded to inactivated third doses. An ordinal logistic multivariable generalized linear model indicated that age (per year β: -0.10, P = 0.04), type of disease-modifying therapy (aCD20 β: -8.36, P <0.01; fingolimod β: -8.63, P = 0.01; others: reference), and type of third dose (AV or conjugated β: 2.36, P = 0.02; inactivated: reference) are predictive of third dose immunogenicity among pwMS who remain seronegative after two shots of BBIBP-CorV vaccine. Statistical significance was not achieved for variables sex, MS duration, EDSS, duration of DMT, duration of third dose to IgG test, and duration from last aCD20 infusion to third dose. Conclusion This preliminary pilot study highlights the need for further research to determine the optimal COVID-19 third dose vaccination strategy for pwMS living in areas where BBIBP-CorV vaccine has been used.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It remains unclear how vaccine doses and combinations of vaccination and infection affect the magnitude and quality of immune responses, particularly against novel SARS-CoV-2 variants in subjects with immune-related disorders, such as people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). Several studies have evaluated the duration of anti-SARS-CoV-2 immune protection in healthy individuals; however clinical data suggest an attenuated short-term humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in pwMS receiving disease-modifying therapies (DMTs). METHODS In this prospective study, we evaluated the humoral response to the third (3rd) BNT162b2 vaccine (booster) dose in a monocentric cohort of pwMS undergoing eight different DMTs, all without previous SARS-CoV-2 infection. Quantitative determination of SARS-CoV-2 IgG Spike titre was carried out by anti-SARS-CoV-2 S assay in 65 pwMS and 9 healthy controls, all without previous SARS-CoV-2 infection. Moreover, these measurements were also compared to their relative levels at 21 days (T1) and ∼6 months (T2) after the second (2nd) vaccination. RESULTS We observed that the humoral response to the booster dose in Interferon β-1a-, Dimethyl fumarate- and Teriflunomide-treated pwMS is comparable to healthy controls, while increased in Cladribine-treated pwMS. Additionally, the 3rd dose elicits a seroconversion in the 100% of pwMS under Fingolimod and in the 65% of those under Ocrelizumab. Moreover, multivariate regression analysis showed that treatment with Interferon β-1a, Dimethyl fumarate and Cladribine positively associates with an increased humoral response. CONCLUSIONS Taken together this evidence strongly indicates the importance of the booster dose to enhance SARS-CoV-2-specific immunity especially in immunocompromised subjects, such as pwMS under DMTs.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused challenges in the management of patients living with multiple sclerosis (PLwMS). We investigated the occurrence and severity of COVID-19 infection post-vaccination among PLwMS treated with ocrelizumab and enrolled in the Maccabi Health Services (MHS) (n = 289) or followed at the Hadassah Medical Center (HMC) (n = 80) in Israel. Most patients were fully vaccinated (MHS n = 218; HMC n = 76) and confirmed infection post-vaccination was low (3.7% and 2.6%, respectively). MHS: infection was more severe (hospitalization/intensive care unit/death) in non-vaccinated (33.3%) vs vaccinated patients (25%). HMC: one vaccinated patient required hospitalization with COVID-19 vs two unvaccinated patients. These data from two Israel cohorts suggest that occurrence of COVID-19 after mRNA vaccination is low and limited in severity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare "hybrid immunity" (prior COVID-19 infection plus vaccination) and post-vaccination immunity to SARS CoV-2 in MS patients on different disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) and to assess the impact of vaccine product and race/ethnicity on post-vaccination immune responses. METHODS Consecutive MS patients from NYU MS Care Center (New York, NY), aged 18-60, who completed primary COVID-19 vaccination series ≥6 weeks previously were evaluated for SARS CoV-2-specific antibody responses with electro-chemiluminescence and multiepitope bead-based immunoassays and, in a subset, live virus immunofluorescence-based microneutralization assay. SARS CoV-2-specific cellular responses were assessed with cellular stimulation TruCulture IFNγ and IL-2 assay and, in a subset, with IFNγ and IL-2 ELISpot assays. Multivariate analyses examined associations between immunologic responses and prior COVID-19 infection while controlling for age, sex, DMT at vaccination, time-to-vaccine, and vaccine product. RESULTS Between 6/01/2021 and 11/11/2021, 370 MS patients were recruited (mean age 40.6 years; 76% female; 53% non-White; 22% with prior infection; common DMT classes: ocrelizumab 40%; natalizumab 15%, sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulators 13%; and no DMT 8%). Vaccine-to-collection time was 18.7 (±7.7) weeks and 95% of patients received mRNA vaccines. In multivariate analyses, patients with laboratory-confirmed prior COVID-19 infection had significantly increased antibody and cellular post-vaccination responses compared to those without prior infection. Vaccine product and DMT class were independent predictors of antibody and cellular responses, while race/ethnicity was not. INTERPRETATION Prior COVID-19 infection is associated with enhanced antibody and cellular post-vaccine responses independent of DMT class and vaccine type. There were no differences in immune responses across race/ethnic groups.

Background COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS), while disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) may influence the efficacy of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in this population. Thus, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of DMTs on immune response to COVID-19 vaccines in pwMS. Methods Literature search from December 1, 2019 to March 31, 2022 was performed in PubMed, MedRxiv, Embase and Cochrane Library. The risk of impaired response to vaccination in pwMS receiving DMTs was estimated in odds ratios (ORs) using random-effects method. Findings A total of 48 studies comprising 6860 pwMS were included. Overall, pwMS with anti-CD20 (OR=0.02, 95% CI: 0.01-0.03) and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulator (S1PRM) (OR=0.03, 95% CI: 0.01-0.06) treatments had attenuated serologic response after full vaccination compared with those without DMTs. Additionally, pwMS vaccinated within six months since last anti-CD20 therapy were at significantly higher risk of blunted response compared with those receiving anti-CD20 therapy more than six months prior to vaccination (P = 0.001). We found no significant associations between other treatments (including IFN-β, GA, DMF, TERI, NTZ, CLAD, and ALE) and humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in pwMS. As for T-cell response, no significant difference was found between pwMS on anti-CD20 and those without DMTs after vaccination, while S1PRM was marginally associated with impaired cellular response (P = 0.03). Interpretation Our findings suggested that routine serological monitoring may be required for pwMS on anti-CD20 and S1PRMs after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and highlighted the benefits of a booster dose. The effect of cellular response and optimal interval from last anti-CD20 treatment to vaccination should be further addressed. Funding This study was supported by Natural Science Foundation of Shanghai (21ZR1433000).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether a third vaccination shows an added effect on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) T-cell responses in patients with multiple sclerosis treated with ocrelizumab or fingolimod. METHODS This is a substudy of a prospective multicenter study on SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with immune-mediated diseases. Patients with MS treated with ocrelizumab, fingolimod, and no disease-modifying therapies and healthy controls were included. The number of interferon (IFN)-γ secreting SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells at multiple time points before and after 3 SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations were evaluated. RESULTS In ocrelizumab-treated patients (N = 24), IFN-γ-producing SARS-CoV-2-specific T-cell responses were induced after 2 vaccinations with median levels comparable to healthy controls (N = 12) and patients with MS without disease-modifying therapies (N = 10). A third vaccination in ocrelizumab-treated patients (N = 8) boosted T-cell responses that had declined after the second vaccination, but did not lead to higher overall T-cell responses as compared to immediately after a second vaccination. In fingolimod-treated patients, no SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells were detected after second (N = 12) and third (N = 9) vaccinations. DISCUSSION In ocrelizumab-treated patients with MS, a third SARS-CoV-2 vaccination had no additive effect on the maximal T-cell response but did induce a boost response. In fingolimod-treated patients, no T-cell responses could be detected following both a second and third SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Safety, Adherence and Persistence in a Real-World Cohort of German MS Patients Newly Treated With Ocrelizumab: First Insights From the CONFIDENCE Study. Front Neurol 2022; 13:863105. [PMID: 35614917 PMCID: PMC9126090 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.863105] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Real-world relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) and primary progressive MS (PPMS) populations may be more diverse than in clinical trials. Here, we present a first analysis of safety, adherence and persistence data from a real-world cohort of patients newly treated with ocrelizumab. Methods CONFIDENCE (ML39632, EUPAS22951) is an ongoing multicenter, non-interventional post authorization safety study assessing patients with RMS or PPMS newly treated with ocrelizumab or other disease-modifying therapies for up to 10 years. For this analysis, patients newly treated with ocrelizumab were analyzed in subgroups by MS phenotype and age over a mean ~1 year of exposure totaling 2,329 patient years [PY]). Results At data cutoff (14 October 2020), 1,702 patients with RMS and 398 patients with PPMS were treated with ≥1 dose of ocrelizumab. At baseline, the mean ages (SD) of patients with RMS and PPMS were 41.59 (11.24) and 50.95 (9.88) years and the mean EDSS (Expanded Disability Status Scale) was 3.18 (1.87) and 4.41 (1.59), respectively. The most common adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs across both phenotypes were infections and infestations, with infection SAE rates of 2.8 events/100 PY and 1.5 events/100 PY in patients with RMS and PPMS, respectively. Across all phenotypes, ocrelizumab persistence was 92% at 24 months; median time between doses was ~6 months. Conclusions The ocrelizumab safety profile observed in the CONFIDENCE real-world MS population was consistent to the one observed in pivotal clinical trials. High treatment persistence and adherence were observed. Trial Registration ML39632, EUPAS22951
