SARS-CoV-2-reactive antibody waning, booster effect and breakthrough SARS-CoV-2 infection in hematopoietic stem cell transplant and cell therapy recipients at one year after vaccination.

ABSTRACT: The kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 reactive IgG antibodies after full vaccination and booster in allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT, ASCT) and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T) are of utmost importance for estimating risk of infection. A prospective multicenter registry-based cohort study, conducted from December 2020 to July 2022 was used to analyze antibody waning over time, booster effect and the relationship of antibody response and breakthrough infection in 572 recipients (429 allo-HSCT, 121 ASCT and 22 CAR-T cell therapy). A significant decline in antibody titers was observed at 3 and 6 months after full vaccination in recipients without pre-vaccine SARS-CoV-2 infection, whereas recipients infected prior to vaccination showed higher and stable antib
