Summary
A longitudinal open-label study will include health professionals and patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID) who will receive the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine (AZD1222), in a standard 3-dose schedule with an interval of 12 weeks (first-second dose) and 24 weeks (second-thrid dose), in the vaccination campaign against SARS-CoV-2 to assess the safety, efficacy and duration of the short- and long-term humoral and cellular immune response after vaccination for COVID-19 and compare the vaccine response between individuals who have or have not had previous SARS-Cov 2 infection.
Description
A longitudinal open-label study that will include individuals who will receive the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine (AZD1222), in a standard 3-dose schedule with an interval of 12 weeks (first-second dose) and 24 weeks (second-thrid dose), in the vaccination campaign against SARS-CoV-2 to assess the safety, efficacy and duration of the short- and long-term humoral and cellular immune response after vaccination for COVID- 19 and compare the vaccine response between individuals who have or have not had previous SARS-Cov 2 infection. Health professionals (HS) and patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID) who participate in vaccination campaigns at the Cassiano Antnio Mores da University Hospital will be included. Federal University of Esprito Santo (HUCAM-UFES). It is intended to include 200 health workers and 350 patients with IMID, totaling 550 participants. Participants who have had previous SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by RT-PCR or positive PRNT at baseline will be considered a group exposed to COVID-19 (CovPrev) and the group without previous infection will be considered a control group (Naive). The IMID group will include patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), Spondyloarthritis (SA), Sjgren's Syndrome (SS), Psoriasis (Pso), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Vasculitis (VASC) who complete validated international classification criteria for each disease. The criteria for vaccination in the IMID group will be in accordance with the National Immunization Program of the Ministry of Health (PNI/MS). Adverse events will be recorded during the first, second and fourth week, and through weekly telephone contacts until D40. The evaluations and collection of biological samples will be carried out in 5 moments (D0, D14 and D28 after the first dose; D28 after the second dose; and D28 after thrid dose) to evaluate the efficacy and in 3 moments (D180, D360 and D540), to evaluate the duration of immunity. Neutralization tests by plaque reduction (PRNT) will be performed to detect neutralizing antibodies against COVID-19, determination of the profile of specific IgM, IgA and IgG, dosage of systemic soluble factors (chemokines, cytokines and growth factors), characterization of phenotypes of immunoregulation, immunosenescence, cell activation and exhaustion and antigen-specific stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro. The study hypothesis is that vaccine-induced production of neutralizing antibodies is more effective in individuals with previous natural SARS-Cov2 infection and less in immunosuppressed individuals.
