Seroconversion after anti-SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccinations among moderate-to-severe psoriatic patients receiving systemic biologicals-Prospective observational cohort study

Eva Anna Piros et al.

Summary: This study investigated the antibody formation and incidence of side effects after mRNA-based anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations in psoriatic patients receiving different biologicals compared to healthy controls. The results showed no significant differences in antibody levels and side effect incidence between the psoriatic patients and healthy controls after vaccination.

Serum neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron sublineages BA.1 and BA.2 in patients receiving monoclonal antibodies

Timothee Bruel et al.

Summary: There are differences in neutralizing activity of therapeutic antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 sublineages, and immunocompromised individuals treated with antibodies show elevated antibody levels but reduced neutralization against Omicron. Breakthrough infections with the Omicron variant are observed in some immunocompromised individuals despite antibody treatment.

Efficacy of covid-19 vaccines in immunocompromised patients: systematic review and meta-analysis

Ainsley Ryan Yan Bin Lee et al.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the efficacy of covid-19 vaccines between immunocompromised and immunocompetent individuals. The results showed that immunocompromised patients, especially organ transplant recipients, had significantly lower rates of seroconversion after covid-19 vaccination. A second dose of the vaccine consistently improved seroconversion in all patient groups, although the improvement was smaller for organ transplant recipients. Targeted interventions, including a third dose (booster) of the vaccine, should be performed for immunocompromised patients.

Intensity and longevity of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination response in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disease: a prospective cohort study

David Simon et al.

Summary: People with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases have a lower and less durable response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and are at risk of losing humoral immune protection. Adjusted vaccination schedules with earlier booster doses or more frequent re-doses, or both, could better protect these individuals.

Summary: Although psoriasis itself does not lead to a poor prognosis for COVID-19, the immunomodulatory agents used for its treatment may make patients more vulnerable to complications from SARS-CoV-2 infection and may affect the effectiveness of vaccines.

Antibody evasion properties of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron sublineages

Sho Iketani et al.

Summary: The identification of the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 in Botswana in November 2021 sparked concern due to the spike protein alterations that could potentially evade antibodies. Further studies showed that the Omicron sublineages, BA.1+R346K and BA.2, are antigenically similar to the wild-type virus and pose similar risks to the effectiveness of current vaccines. BA.2 also demonstrated resistance to many neutralizing monoclonal antibodies, highlighting the challenges in developing effective therapeutic options.

Efficacy and safety of risankizumab vs. secukinumab in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis (IMMerge): results from a phase III, randomized, open-label, efficacy-assessor-blinded clinical trial

R. B. Warren et al.

Summary: In the IMMerge study, risankizumab was found to be slightly superior to secukinumab at week 16 and superior at week 52, meeting both primary endpoints, and showing better results on secondary endpoints as well. Overall, at week 52, risankizumab demonstrated superior efficacy and similar safety with less frequent dosing compared to secukinumab.

Common Fundamentals of Psoriasis and Depression

Stefanie HOLSKEN et al.

Summary: Psoriasis and depression are closely related in terms of biological mechanisms, with inflammation playing a key role as a pathophysiological link between the two conditions. Anti-inflammatory therapies may not only treat the clinical manifestations of psoriasis, but also help reduce associated depressive symptoms in patients. However, comparing studies on changes in depressive symptoms in psoriasis is limited by inconsistencies in the depression screening tools used.

Waning Immune Humoral Response to BNT162b2 Covid-19 Vaccine over 6 Months

Einav G. Levin et al.

Summary: A study in Israel revealed that waning immunity after receiving two doses of the BNT162b2 vaccine led to an increase in the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Levels of spike-binding IgG and neutralizing antibodies decreased more significantly in men, individuals aged 65 or older, and immunosuppressed individuals in a longitudinal study involving nearly 4000 healthcare workers.

Summary: A study conducted in Israel on nearly 600,000 individuals showed that the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine was effective in reducing the risk of infection, hospitalization, and severe Covid-19. The effectiveness in preventing death was 72% during the period from day 14 through day 20 after the first dose, and hospitalization was reduced by 87% for the period 7 or more days after the second dose, similar to results from a randomized trial.

David S. Khoury et al.

Summary: The level of neutralizing antibodies is closely related to immune protection against COVID-19, playing a crucial role in protecting against detected infection and severe infection. Studies have shown that neutralizing titers will decline over time after vaccination, leading to decreased protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Summary: In patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis, treatment with bimekizumab resulted in greater skin clearance than treatment with secukinumab over 16 and 48 weeks but was associated with oral candidiasis. Longer and larger trials are needed to determine comparative effects and risks of interleukin-17 inhibitors in psoriasis.

COVID-19 and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases: effect of disease and treatment on COVID-19 outcomes and vaccine responses

Filippo Fagni et al.

Summary: Patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases do not have an increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection or severe COVID-19, and certain medications like cytokine inhibitors may even lower the risk of severe illness. However, glucocorticoids might worsen COVID-19 outcomes, and the immune response to vaccination in these patients could be somewhat reduced.

Impact of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs on vaccine immunogenicity in patients with inflammatory rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases

Marcia A. Friedman et al.

Summary: Patients with rheumatic diseases are at increased risk of infectious complications, and disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs can reduce the immunogenicity of common vaccines. Different medications have varying impacts on vaccine immunogenicity, with rituximab having the most substantial effect and Janus kinase and tumour necrosis factor inhibitors decreasing antibody titres. Emerging data suggest that the effect of these medications on the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine immunogenicity is similar to other vaccines, but more research is needed.

Summary: Vaccination with mRNA BNT162b2 vaccine showed reduced immunogenicity in patients with AIIRD compared to the general population, with risk factors including older age and treatment with glucocorticoids, rituximab, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and abatacept. However, most patients maintained stable disease activity post-vaccination.

Rebecca H. Haberman et al.

Summary: The study found that patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) on methotrexate treatment showed impaired humoral and cellular immune response to COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, while healthy subjects and IMID patients on biologic treatments demonstrated strong antibody responses. These results suggest that different strategies may need to be explored to enhance immunization efficacy for IMID patients on methotrexate treatment.
