Background: Netherton syndrome (NS) is a rare, severe genetic skin disorder, currently classified as an inborn error of immunity (IEI) due to previously reported immune dysregulation. We recently reported the results of an immunological evaluation showing no evidence for a relevant B- and/or T-cell mediated immunodeficiency, but immune responses after vaccination were not evaluated in that study. Therefore, we evaluated immune responses to three vaccine platforms in adult NS patients to further investigate the presence of a clinically relevant B- and/or T-cell immunodeficiency. Methods: Vaccination responses in eight adult NS patients were assessed in a cross-sectional study performed between January and August 2022. Clinical patient data were retrospectively retrieved from electronic patient files. Immune responses to a polysaccharide Streptococcus pneumoniae vaccine (PPV23) and conjugate Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine (ActHiB) were measured. SARS-CoV-2-specific (functional) antibody and T-cell responses following booster vaccination with an mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine were compared to controls. Results: None of the included patients suffered from recurrent and/or severe infections that could be attributed to a B- and/or T-cell immunodeficiency. ActHiB induced immune responses were normal in 7/7 NS patients. PPV23 induced responses were absent in 1/7, diminished in 2/7, and normal in 4/7 patients. Levels of SARS-CoV-2-specific binding and neutralizing antibodies after mRNA-based COVID-19 booster vaccination in NS patients were comparable to controls. SARS-CoV-2-specific CD4 + T-cell responses were detectable in all NS patients. In contrast, SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8 + T-cell responses were detectable in only 2/6 NS patients. T-cell responses to a positive control antigen pool were comparable to controls. Conclusions: Vaccine-induced immune responses were detectable after polysaccharide, conjugate and mRNA-based vaccination in our cohort of NS patients. A spectrum of responsiveness to vaccine challenges was found, with the ranges of vaccine responses overlapping those demonstrated in healthy control populations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
