The study aimed to investigate the impact of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on the immunogenicity of the BNT162b2 vaccine against wild-type and variant strains of SARS-CoV-2, as well as infection outcome. The results showed that NAFLD patients who received two doses of the BNT162b2 vaccine had good immunogenicity against wild-type and delta variant strains, but poor immunogenicity against the omicron variant, and they were not at a higher risk of infection compared to the control group.
Background: We aimed to investigate the effect of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on BNT162b2 immunogenicity against wild-type SARS-CoV-2 and variants and infection outcome, as data are lacking. Methods: Recipients of two doses of BNT162b2 were prospectively recruited. Outcomes of interest were seroconversion of neutralizing antibody by live virus microneutralization (vMN) to SARS-CoV-2 strains (wild-type, delta and omicron variants) at day 21, 56 and 180 after first dose. Exposure of interest was moderate-to-severe NAFLD (controlled attenuation parameter >= 268 dB/M on transient elastography). We calculated adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of infection with NAFLD by adjusting for age, sex, overweight/obesity, diabetes and antibiotic use. Results: Of 259 BNT162b2 recipients (90 (34.7%) male; median age: 50.8 years (IQR: 43.6-57.8)), 68 (26.3%) had NAFLD. For wild type, there was no difference in seroconversion rate between NAFLD and control groups at day 21 (72.1% vs. 77.0%; p = 0.42), day 56 (100% vs. 100%) and day 180 (100% and 97.2%; p = 0.22), respectively. For the delta variant, there was no difference also at day 21 (25.0% vs. 29.5%; p = 0.70), day 56 (100% vs. 98.4%; p = 0.57) and day 180 (89.5% vs. 93.3%; p = 0.58), respectively. For the omicron variant, none achieved seroconversion at day 21 and 180. At day 56, there was no difference in seroconversion rate (15.0% vs. 18.0%; p = 0.76). NAFLD was not an independent risk factor of infection (aOR: 1.50; 95% CI: 0.68-3.24). Conclusions: NAFLD patients receiving two doses of BNT162b2 had good immunogenicity to wild-type SARS-CoV-2 and the delta variant but not the omicron variant, and they were not at higher risk of infection compared with controls.
