MO877: Dynamics of SARS-COV-2-Spike-Reactive Antibody and T-Cell Responses in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Within 3 Months After Covid-19 Full Vaccination

Abstract BACKGROUND AND AIMS Little is known regarding the dynamics of antibody and T-cell responses in chronic kidney disease (CKD) following COVID-19 vaccination. METHOD Prospective observational cohort study including 144 participants on haemodialysis (HD) (n = 52), peritoneal dialysis (PD) (n = 14), kidney transplantation (KT) (n = 30) or advanced chronic kidney disease not on dialysis (ACKD), and healthy controls (n = 18). Anti-Spike(S) antibody and T-cell responses were assessed at 15 days (15D) and 3 months (3M) after vaccination. RESULTS Anti-S antibodies at 15D and 3M were detectable in 95% (48/50)/98% (49/50) of HD patients, 93% (13/14)/100% of PD patients, 67% (17/26)/75% (21/28) of KT patients and 96% (25/26)/100% (24/24) of ACKD patients. Rates for healthy controls were 81% (13/16)/100% (17/17). Antibody levels decreased at 3M in HD (P = 0.04), PD (P = 0.008) and ACKD patients (P = 0.0009). In KT, patients levels increased (P = 0.04) between 15D and 3M, although they were low at both time points. Detectable T-cell responses notably increased at 3M in HD patients (P
