Safety and Immunogenicity After a Three-Dose SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Schedule in Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients.

ABSTRACT: In allogeneic stem cell transplant (Allo-SCT) recipients, the cell-mediated and humoral immunogenicity of the 3-dose SARS-CoV-2 vaccination schedule has not been investigated in prospective studies. In a prospective cohort, we recruited 122 Allo-SCT recipients since August 2021, when Ontario began offering a 3-dose vaccine schedule for Allo-SCT recipients. We determined humoral and cell-mediated immunity and adverse effects of the 3-dose SARS-COV-2 vaccination schedule in Allo-SCT recipients. In immunogenicity analysis (n = 95), the median (interquartile range [IQR]) antibody titer against the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike (S) protein after the third dose (10,358.0 U/mL [IQR = 673.9-31,753.0]) was significantly higher than that after the first (10.2 U/mL [IQR = 0.6-37.0]) and
