Popis: | Objective: The aim of this study is to determine a development of humoral response after COVID-19 vaccination in persons with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (pwSPMS) on siponimod, compared to healthy controls (HC). Methods: In 13 pwSPMS taking siponimod and 11 HC, testing for SARS-CoV2 antibodies was performed after vaccination against COVID-19. Results: pwSPMS taking siponimod had a significantly lower titer of SARS-CoV2 antibodies compared to healthy controls (19.4 (0-250) vs. 250 (250), p>0.001). Two (15.4%) pwSPMS on siponimod had unmeasurable titers of SARS-CoV2-2 antibodies, while all HC had positive titers. Conclusion: Although the results of this study are limited by a small sample size, results have consistently shown low titers of SARS-CoV-2 IgG after COVID-19 vaccinations in pwSPMS on siponimod. |
