Title: Impact of Low-Dose Methotrexate–Adalimumab Combination Therapy on the Antibody Response Induced by the mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine: Case of an Elderly Patient with Rheumatoid Arthritis Cord-id: wgzwnlxd Document date: 2021_8_9
ID: wgzwnlxd
Snippet: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are treated with drugs that may impact their immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. We describe here the anti-Spike (anti-S) IgG and neutralizing antibody responses induced by the mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in a 78-years-old patient with RA, who received a low-dose combination therapy of methotrexate and adalimumab, shortly before vaccine administration. Both near-normal and impaired immune responses to vaccines have been reported previously in patient
Document: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are treated with drugs that may impact their immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. We describe here the anti-Spike (anti-S) IgG and neutralizing antibody responses induced by the mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in a 78-years-old patient with RA, who received a low-dose combination therapy of methotrexate and adalimumab, shortly before vaccine administration. Both near-normal and impaired immune responses to vaccines have been reported previously in patients treated with these drugs. Our case report shows that, even at low doses, combined methotrexate-adalimumab therapy can be associated with a weak immune response to the mRNA1273 vaccine in elderly patients.
