Vaccine escape, increased breakthrough and reinfection in infliximab-treated patients with IBD during the Omicron wave of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

Nicholas A. Kennedy et al.

Summary: This study found that a third dose of an mRNA-based vaccine can boost antibody responses and immunity in infliximab-treated patients with IBD. However, these patients had lower antibody concentrations compared to those treated with vedolizumab and were more likely to experience breakthrough infections and reinfections.

Humoral Immunogenicity of 3 COVID-19 Messenger RNA Vaccine Doses in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Trevor L. Schell et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the humoral immunogenicity of a third dose of mRNA vaccine for coronavirus disease 2019 in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases. All patients showed a humoral immune response, and median antibody concentrations were higher after the third dose compared to completion of the 2-dose series.

Robust correlations across six SARS-CoV-2 serology assays detecting distinct antibody features

Louise C. Rowntree et al.

Summary: The study utilized various serology testing methods to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, finding that commercial ELISA results were consistent with in-house ELISA results, rapid sVNT inhibition frequency strongly correlated with spike-specific IgG and IgA titres, and multiplex analyses revealed the strongest correlations between spike and RBD-specific antibodies.
