One-year breakthrough SARS-CoV-2 infection and correlates of protection in fully vaccinated hematological patients

Jose Luis Pinana et al.

Summary: This study examined the relationship between antibody response and SARS-CoV-2 infection in 1551 patients with hematological disorders after completing the full vaccine regimen. The results showed that 17% of the patients developed SARS-CoV-2 infection during the 388-day follow-up. Multivariate analysis identified higher incidence in chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients and those using corticosteroids.

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

Jose Luis Pinana et al.

Summary: The study examined the kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 reactive IgG antibodies after full vaccination and booster in different stem cell transplantation and CAR-T therapy settings. The results showed a decline in antibody titers over time, especially in recipients without pre-vaccine infection. Booster doses were effective in increasing antibody titers in poorly responding allo-HSCT and ASCT recipients, but not in CAR-T cell recipients. Antibody levels were associated with breakthrough infection and disease severity. The study also identified immunosuppressive drugs and conditioning intensity as factors affecting the risk of breakthrough infection in allo-HSCT recipients.

Current outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant infection in high-risk haematological patients treated early with antivirals

Tommaso-Francesco Aiello et al.

Summary: This study aimed to describe the clinical outcomes and duration of viral shedding in high-risk patients with haematological malignancies hospitalized with COVID-19 during Omicron variant predominance who received early treatment with antivirals. The analysis included 60 consecutive adults with high-risk haematological malignancies and COVID-19. Overall, the current outcomes of high-risk patients with haematological malignancies hospitalized with COVID-19 during Omicron variant predominance are good with the use of early antiviral strategies, and persistent viral shedding is uncommon.

Improved outcomes over time and higher mortality in CMV seropositive allogeneic stem cell transplantation patients with COVID-19; An infectious disease working party study from the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation registry

Per Ljungman et al.

Summary: This study reports on the incidence and mortality of COVID-19 in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HCT) recipients. It found that patients who contracted COVID-19 within 30 days or 30-100 days after transplant and those who were older and had worse immune status were at higher risk. Despite improved outcomes, there are still risks associated with severe COVID-19 in this population.

Bench-to-bedside: Innovation of small molecule anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs in China

Liyan Yang et al.

Summary: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the urgent need for potent prophylactic and therapeutic strategies against SARS-CoV-2. Small molecule inhibitors play a crucial role in the clinical treatment of SARS-CoV-2. China has made significant progress in the development of anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs, but there is still limited knowledge regarding their pharmacological activity, antiviral mechanisms, and clinical efficacy. This review discusses the development of small molecule anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs in China and summarizes their pharmacological activity, potential mechanisms of action, clinical trials and use, and important milestones in their discovery.

Summary: Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir treatment is associated with lower mortality in hematological malignancy patients. The treatment is related to the presence of extra-pulmonary symptoms and vaccination status for COVID-19, but not chronic pulmonary disease or obesity.

COVID-19 bacteremic co-infection is a major risk factor for mortality, ICU admission, and mechanical ventilation

Michael John Patton et al.

Summary: A large retrospective study found that community-acquired bacterial co-infection related to COVID-19 is a significant factor contributing to mortality, with a higher mortality rate compared to community-acquired bacteremia. An elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio above 15 is a prognostic indicator of COVID-19 bacterial co-infection.

William A. Fischer et al.

Summary: In a clinical trial, the safety, tolerability, and antiviral efficacy of molnupiravir were evaluated in unvaccinated individuals with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. The study found that participants receiving high-dose molnupiravir had a shorter time to viral RNA clearance and a lower detection rate of infectious virus. Molnupiravir was well tolerated across all doses.

Summary: This study found that lack of detectable antibodies at 3-6 weeks after full vaccination was the main variable associated with breakthrough infection, and antibody titers above 250 BAU/mL significantly reduced the incidence and severity of the infection.

Summary: Dexamethasone use in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients is strongly associated with superinfections, as well as pre-existing autoimmune disease and longer ICU stays. While superinfections do not impact 90-day survival, patients receiving dexamethasone have lower survival rates.

Summary: This review gathered information on the most common community-acquired and hospital-acquired co-infections among COVID-19 patients, identifying risk factors and outcomes associated with these co-infections. It found that bacterial and fungal co-infections were equally frequent, especially in hospital settings, with risk factors including male gender, longer hospital stays, and certain treatments. Co-infections were associated with increased disease severity and poorer outcomes.

Summary: In this study, the combination of remdesivir and convalescent plasma therapy was found to be efficient and safe for the treatment of COVID-19 in patients with hematological malignancies and B-cell lymphopenia. This combined treatment reduced the need for oxygen support, length of hospital stay, and viral positivity.

Summary: The global spread of SARS-CoV-2 over approximately 9 months has resulted in a rise in acute hospitalizations and deaths due to COVID-19. In the absence of clinical trial results, physicians must rely on existing knowledge of the pathophysiology of SARSCoV-2 infection to determine early outpatient treatment in order to prevent hospitalization or death.

Summary: This study analyzed the characteristics and outcomes of male compared to female adults with COVID-19 in US academic centers. Males with COVID-19 showed higher rates of hypertension, diabetes, renal failure, heart failure, and liver disease, while females were more likely to be obese and have chronic pulmonary disease. Male COVID-19 patients had higher in-hospital mortality rates, higher rates of respiratory intubation, and longer hospital stays compared to females.
