PG - e184-e187 LID - S1569-1993(22)00094-7 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.jcf.2022.04.004 [doi] AB - Data regarding immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 BNT162b2 vaccine in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients are limited. We prospectively measured total (TAbs-RBD; U/ml) and neutralizing (NAbs-RBD; %) antibodies of SARS-CoV-2 spike-receptor binding domain (RBD) protein in 33 CF patients and 66 healthy controls with median age (IQR): 19.6 (17.6-24.3) years and 31 (29-36) years, respectively and investigated possible associations with epidemiological and clinical parameters. Compared to healthy controls, CF patients had higher levels of TAbs-RBD and NAbs-RBD after both doses (P-value < 0.001). One month after the second dose, CF patients and controls had TAbs-RBD: median (IQR): 3396 (2443) and 1452 (1231) U/ml, respectively. Similarly, the NAbs-RBD (%) were: 97.30 (1.00) and 95.70 (3.71) %, respectively. CF patients also had fewer local and systemic adverse events (AEs) (P-value < 0.001). Among CF patients, no significant differences in immunogenicity were detected regarding the phenotype, genotype, medications, or severity of the disease. BNT162b2 vaccine was immunogenic with limited reactogenicity in CF patients regardless of the phenotype or severity of disease. CI - Copyright (c) 2022. Published by Elsevier B.V.
