Popis: BackgroundWe recently reported an attenuate immunogenicity in patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases. However, the effect of spondyloarthritis (SpA) and its treatment on COVID-19 vaccine immunogenicity remains to be determined for this group of patients. We therefore aimed to evaluate humoral immune responses to inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (CoronaVac) in patients with SpA (axial spondyloarthritis and psoriatic arthritis) taking DMARDs and commonly used targeted biological therapies, compared with a control group(CG).ObjectivesEvaluate immunogenicity and safety of CORONAVAC (Sninovac, Beijing) in Spondyloarthritis (SpA) patients.MethodsProspective observational cohort patients diagnosed with 194 SpA and 183 CG were vaccinated with CoronaVac in two doses with a 28-days interval. 194 patients completed the study and could be paired with CG for immunogenicity analysis. Blood samples were collected in the days 0, 28 and 69 (D69) to evaluate anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG seroconversion(SC) and presence of neutralizing antibodies (NAb) in participants with negative IgG and NAb at baseline.ResultsPatients and GC were comparable regarding age (p=0.93) and sex (p=1.00). Immunogenicity at D69 showed a moderate/high SC (80.2% vs. 95.7%, pConclusionOur finding of an excellent safety and moderate/high SC rate in SpA supports the recommendation of CoronaVac vaccination. The impaired immune response in the minority of patients under immunosuppressive and biological therapy requires novel strategies to enhance antibody response in this subgroup of patients.References[1]Weaver A, Troum O, Hooper M, Koenig AS, Chaudhari S, Feng J, et al.
