Abstrakt: Immunogenicity data on the mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine booster after completing a primary series vaccination, other than the mRNA vaccine, in patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) is scarce. In this study, we reported the humoral immunogenicity of an mRNA booster 90–180 days after completing heterologous CoronaVac/ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (n = 19) or homologous ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (n = 14) vaccination by measuring the anti-SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain (RBD) IgG levels at one and three months after mRNA booster vaccination. This study included 33 patients with ARDs [78.8% women; mean (SD) age: 42.9 (10.6) years]. Most patients received prednisolone (75.8%, mean [IQR] daily dose: 7.5 [5, 7.5] mg) and azathioprine (45.5%). The seropositivity rates were 100% and 92.9% in CoronaVac/ChAdOx1 and ChAdOx1/ChAdOx1, respectively. The median (IQR) anti-RBD IgG level was lower in the ChAdOx1/ChAdOx1 group than in the CoronaVac/ChAdOx1 group (1867.8 [591.6, 2548.6] vs. 3735.8 [2347.9, 5014.0] BAU/mL, p = 0.061). A similar trend was significant in the third month [597.8 (735.5) vs. 1609.9 (828.4) BAU/mL, p = 0.003]. Minor disease flare-ups occurred in 18.2% of the patients. Our findings demonstrated satisfactory humoral immunogenicity of mRNA vaccine boosters after a primary series, with vaccine strategies other than the mRNA platform. Notably, the vaccine-induced immunity was lower in the ChAdOx1/ChAdOx1 primary series. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
