Immunogenicity of the 13-Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV13) Followed by the 23-Valent Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPSV23) in Adults with and without Immunosuppressive Therapy. Vaccines (Basel) 2022; 10:vaccines10050795. [PMID: 35632551 PMCID: PMC9146363 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines10050795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Immunosuppressive therapy increases the risk of pneumococcal disease. This risk can be mitigated by pneumococcal vaccination. The objective of this study was to investigate the immunogenicity of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13), followed by the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23), in adults with and without immunosuppressive therapy. We performed a prospective cohort study among adults using conventional immunomodulators (cIM), biological immunomodulators (bIM), combination therapy, and controls during 12 months. The primary outcome was seroprotection, defined as the proportion of patients with a postimmunization IgG concentration of ≥1.3 µg/mL for at least 70% (17/24) of the serotypes of PCV13 + PPSV23. We included 214 participants. For all 24 vaccine serotypes, IgG levels increased significantly in both treatment subgroups and controls, with peak seroprotection rates of 44% (combination therapy), 58% (cIM), 57% (bIM), and 82% (controls). By month 12, seroprotection had decreased to 24%, 48%, 39%, and 63%, respectively. Although pneumococcal vaccination with PCV13 + PPSV23 was immunogenic in all treatment groups, impaired vaccination responses were observed in patients using immunosuppressive medication. Apart from the obvious recommendation to administer vaccines before such medication is started, alternative vaccination strategies, such as additional PCV13 doses or higher-valent pneumococcal vaccines, should be investigated.

Abstract
Patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), such as rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, are at increased risk of infection. International guidelines recommend vaccination to limit this risk of infection, although live attenuated vaccines are contraindicated once immunosuppressive therapy has begun. Biologic therapies used to treat IMIDs target the immune system to stop chronic pathogenic process but may also attenuate the protective immune response to vaccines. Here, we review the current knowledge regarding vaccine responses in IMID patients receiving treatment with biologic therapies, with a focus on the interleukin (IL)-12/23 inhibitors. B cell-depleting therapies, such as rituximab, strongly impair vaccines immunogenicity, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors and the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) fusion protein abatacept are also associated with attenuated antibody responses, which are further diminished in patients taking concomitant immunosuppressants. On the other hand, integrin, IL-6, IL-12/23, IL-17, and B-cell activating factor (BAFF) inhibitors do not appear to affect the immune response to several vaccines evaluated. Importantly, treatment with biologic therapies in IMID patients is not associated with an increased risk of infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) or developing severe disease. However, the efficacy of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines on IMID patients may be reduced compared with healthy individuals. The impact of biologic therapies on the response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines seems to replicate what has been described for other vaccines. SARS-CoV-2 vaccination appears to be safe and well tolerated in IMID patients. Attenuated but, in general, still protective responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in the context of certain therapies warrant current recommendations for a third primary dose in IMID patients treated with immunosuppressive drugs.

Abstract
Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and its immunosuppressive therapy alter the body's immune response, predisposing patients to higher infection risk preventable with vaccination. The CDC recommends every adult receive the annual influenza vaccine and patients with certain comorbidities receive the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23). However, vaccination rates among IBD patients remain unacceptably low. The aim of our study is to present influenza and pneumococcal vaccinations rates of IBD patients at our center. Methods We hypothesized that vaccination rates will be suboptimal at our outpatient center and that patients are not being vaccinated based on comorbid conditions in accordance with guidelines. We retrieved electronic medical records from the gastroenterology clinic between December 2018 and December 2019. Data regarding influenza and pneumococcal vaccines, immunosuppressive drugs, and comorbidities were obtained. Microsoft Excel and SPSS Statistics (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) were used for data analyses. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results In total, 109 IBD patients were identified, 46.8% female and 53.2% male. The majority were African American (77.06%). The mean age was 45 years. Around 26.61% of the patients were on immunosuppressive therapy. Around 28.7% received the annual influenza vaccine, 42.2% PPSV23 alone, 19.27% PCV13 alone, and 16.5% received both. Patients >50 years were more likely to receive the influenza vaccine (P = 0.0122). Patients on immunosuppressive therapy were not more likely to be vaccinated with both PCV13 and PPSV23 (P = 0.1848, P = 0.7382). Active smokers were not more likely to be vaccinated with PPSV23 (P = 0.695). Patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and sickle-cell disease were more likely to be vaccinated with both PCV13 and PPSV23 (P = 0.02, P = 0.02). Patients with other chronic medical conditions were more likely to be vaccinated with PPSV23 (P = 0.0201). Conclusion Our study revealed suboptimal influenza and pneumococcal vaccination rates among IBD patients at our facility. We also found that patients were not consistently vaccinated based on qualifying co-morbid conditions. Age plays a role in whether patients received the influenza vaccine contrary to guidelines. We urge clinicians to examine IBD patient vaccination rates at their facilities.

Canadian Association of Gastroenterology Clinical Practice Guideline for Immunizations in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)-Part 2: Inactivated Vaccines. J Can Assoc Gastroenterol 2021; 4:e72-e91. [PMID: 34476339 PMCID: PMC8407486 DOI: 10.1093/jcag/gwab016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Aims The effectiveness and safety of vaccinations can be altered by
immunosuppressive therapies, and perhaps by inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
itself. These recommendations developed by the Canadian Association of
Gastroenterology and endorsed by the American Gastroenterological
Association, aim to provide guidance on immunizations in adult and pediatric
patients with IBD. This publication focused on inactivated vaccines. Methods Systematic reviews evaluating the efficacy, effectiveness, and safety of
vaccines in patients with IBD, other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases,
and the general population were performed. Critical outcomes included
mortality, vaccine-preventable diseases, and serious adverse events.
Immunogenicity was considered a surrogate outcome for vaccine efficacy.
Certainty of evidence and strength of recommendations were rated according
to the GRADE (Grading of Recommendation Assessment, Development, and
Evaluation) approach. Key questions were developed through an iterative
online platform, and voted on by a multidisciplinary group. Recommendations
were formulated using the Evidence-to-Decision framework. Strong
recommendation means that most patients should receive the recommended
course of action, whereas a conditional recommendation means that different
choices will be appropriate for different patients. Results Consensus was reached on 15 of 20 questions. Recommendations address the
following vaccines: Haemophilus influenzae type b,
recombinant zoster, hepatitis B, influenza, pneumococcus, meningococcus,
tetanus-diphtheria-pertussis, and human papillomavirus. Most of the
recommendations for patients with IBD are congruent with the current Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention and Canada’s National Advisory
Committee on Immunization recommendations for the general population, with
the following exceptions. In patients with IBD, the panel suggested
Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine for patients
older than 5 years of age, recombinant zoster vaccine for adults younger
than 50 year of age, and hepatitis B vaccine for adults without a risk
factor. Consensus was not reached, and recommendations were not made for 5
statements, due largely to lack of evidence, including double-dose hepatitis
B vaccine, timing of influenza immunization in patients on biologics,
pneumococcal and meningococcal vaccines in adult patients without risk
factors, and human papillomavirus vaccine in patients aged 27–45
years. Conclusions Patients with IBD may be at increased risk of some vaccine-preventable
diseases. Therefore, maintaining appropriate vaccination status in these
patients is critical to optimize patient outcomes. In general, IBD is not a
contraindication to the use of inactivated vaccines, but immunosuppressive
therapy may reduce vaccine responses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The current COVID-19 pandemic, caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), has drastically impacted societies worldwide. Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is expected to play a key role in the management of this pandemic. Inflammatory conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often require chronic immunosuppression, which can influence vaccination decisions. AIM This review article aims to describe the most commonly available SARS-CoV-2 vaccination vectors globally, assess the potential benefits and concerns of vaccination in the setting of immunosuppression and provide medical practitioners with guidance regarding SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with IBD. METHODS All published Phase 1/2 and/or Phase 3 and 4 studies of SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations were reviewed. IBD international society position papers, safety registry data and media releases from pharmaceutical companies as well as administrative and medicines regulatory bodies were included. General vaccine evidence and recommendations in immunosuppressed patients were reviewed for context. Society position papers regarding special populations, including immunosuppressed, pregnant and breast-feeding individuals were also evaluated. Literature was critically analysed and summarised. RESULTS Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is supported in all adult, non-pregnant individuals with IBD without contraindication. There is the potential that vaccine efficacy may be reduced in those who are immunosuppressed; however, medical therapies should not be withheld in order to undertake vaccination. SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are safe, but data specific to immunosuppressed patients remain limited. CONCLUSIONS SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is essential from both an individual patient and community perspective and should be encouraged in patients with IBD. Recommendations must be continually updated as real-world and trial-based evidence emerges.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review serves as a summary of healthcare maintenance items that should be addressed when managing patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This manuscript discusses vaccine-preventable illnesses, cancer prevention recommendations, and other screenings that are important to gastroenterologists and primary care physicians caring for patients with IBD. RECENT FINDINGS Patients with IBD often require immunomodulator agents and/or biologics to induce and maintain disease remission which can increase the risk of developing several infections. Also, subsets of patients with IBD are at an increased risk for a number of malignancies including colon, cervical, and skin cancers. SUMMARY Staying up-to-date with health care maintenance of patients with IBD is critical, especially given their increased risk for vaccine-preventable infections as well as comorbidities such as cancers, bone health, and mood disorders. Gastroenterologists and primary care physicians should familiarize themselves with the required screenings and vaccines that are recommended for adult patients with IBD, particularly those who are immunosuppressed.

[PMID: 33294820 PMCID: PMC7695973 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2020.100576] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2020] [Revised: 09/15/2020] [Accepted: 09/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to summarise the literature regarding the immunogenicity of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines (PPSV) in adult people living with HIV (PLWH) in the era of advanced combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). METHODS The systematic review protocol was published online (PROSPERO ID: CRD 42020153137). We searched Medline (Ovid), EMBASE (Ovid), and the Global Health Library for publications from 2000 to June 11, 2020. We included all studies in adult PLWH that reported vaccine immunogenicity outcomes. The primary outcome was seroconversion rate (SCR) after PCV, PPSV and PCV/PPSV combined. For random-effects meta-analysis, we included studies defining SCR as a ≥ 2-fold increase in IgG from baseline, and reporting SCR for serotypes 6B, 14, or overall SCR, 1-3 months after vaccination. FINDINGS Our search identified 1597 unique studies, of which 115 were eligible for full-text assessment. Of these, 39 met the inclusion criteria (11 RCTs; 28 cohort studies). A high degree of heterogeneity was observed. Nineteen studies were included in the meta-analysis. Pooled overall SCRs were 42% (95% CI 30-56%), 44% (95% CI 33-55%) and 57% (95% CI 50-63%) for PLWH who received PPSV, PCV or a combination of PCV/PPSV, respectively. Compared to PPSV alone, a combination of PCV/PPSV yielded higher SCRs (OR 2.24 95% CI 1.41- 3.58), whereas we did not observe a significant difference in SCR between PCV and PPSV23 alone. There were no statistically significant differences in geometric mean post-vaccination antibody concentrations between vaccination schedules. Vaccination at higher CD4 cell counts improved immunogenicity in 8/21 studies, especially when PCV was administered. No studies assessed the long-term immunogenicity of PCV followed by PPSV23. Quality of evidence ranged from poor (n = 19) to good quality (n = 7). A limited number of pneumococcal serotypes was assessed in the majority of studies. INTERPRETATION We show that the recommended immunisation schedule consisting of a combination of PCV13/PPSV23, is immunogenic in PLWH in the era of advanced cART. However, the durability of this vaccination schedule remains unknown and must be addressed in future research. Vaccination with PCV should be delayed until immunological recovery (CD4>200) in recently diagnosed PLWH for optimal immunogenicity. The evidence gathered here supports wide implementation of the combination of PCV/PPSV23 for all PLWH. We recommend reassessment of this strategy once higher-valent PCVs become available.

Abstract
The disease burden of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) in India is estimated to be one of the highest in the world in the near future. Patients with IBD, particularly those on immunosuppressive therapy, are at increased risk for developing vaccine-preventable illnesses. Adult vaccination policy and vaccination in patients with IBD are presently being at a very low level in India. This review discusses in detail the need for vaccination, levels of immunosuppression, a brief account of live and inactivated vaccines, available vaccines, and their utility in patients with IBD, with a special focus on recent recommendations.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which comprises ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, is an immune-mediated, chronic-relapsing, disabling disorder which is associated with increased mortality and poor patients' quality of life. Patients with IBD are at increased risk of infections for many reasons. In fact, IBD often requires a lifelong immunosuppressive and/or biologic therapy, both commonly associated with respiratory and opportunistic infections, but also gastrointestinal, urinary tract infections, and sepsis. Moreover, impaired spleen function has been found in a considerable proportion of IBD patients, further increasing the risk of developing infections sustained by encapsulated bacteria, such as S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, and N. meningitidis. Finally, comorbidities and surgery represent additional risk factors for these patients. Despite the availability of vaccinations against the most common serotypes of encapsulated bacteria, uncertainties still exist regarding a proper vaccination strategy and the actual effectiveness of vaccinations in this particular setting. Aim of this narrative review is to focus on the broad topic of vaccinations against encapsulated bacteria in IBD patients, discussing the clinical impact of infections, predisposing factors, vaccinations strategies, and unmet research and clinical needs.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Significant gaps in knowledge and utilization of vaccinations exist among practitioners providing care for patients with IBD. This review is intended to update the reader on best practices for vaccination within the IBD population with a specific focus on the elderly. RECENT FINDINGS Advances in IBD therapeutics have recently increased the number of immunosuppressive therapies available to practitioners. Differences in mechanisms of action of these medications have led to differential implications pertaining to vaccination strategies. Additionally, new vaccines, including the recombinant zoster vaccine, have recently become available for the use in the IBD population. Given the prominent role the IBD provider plays in the management of patients with IBD, a clear understanding of best practices is essential. This review provides a framework for the integration of optimal vaccination strategies for practitioners caring for adult and elderly patients with IBD.
