    (2021) FORMIGA, Francisco Fellipe Claudino; SILVA, Clovis Artur; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; GARCIA, Cristiana Couto; CAPAO, Artur Silva Vidal; MARTINS, Victor Adriano de Oliveira; PROENCA, Adriana Coracini Tonacio de; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; VENDRAMINI, Margarete Borges Galhardo; ROSARIO, Debora Cordeiro do; BRANDAO, Leticia Maria Kolachinski Raposo; SARTORI, Ana Marli Christovam; ANTONANGELO, Leila; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira
    Introduction Influenza A (H3N2) virus is the most important cause of seasonal influenza morbidity and mortality in the last 50 years, surpassing the impact of H1N1. Data assessing immunogenicity and safety of this virus component are lacking in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and restricted to small reports with other H3N2 strains. Objective This study aims to evaluate short-term immunogenicity and safety of influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine in SLE. Methods 81 consecutive SLE patients and 81 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC) were vaccinated with the influenza A/Singapore/INFIMH-16-0019/2016(H3N2)-like virus. Seroprotection (SP) and seroconversion (SC) rates, geometric mean titers(GMT), and factor increase in GMT(FI-GMT) and adverse events were assessed before and 4 weeks post-vaccination. Disease activity and therapies were also evaluated. Results Before immunization, SLE and HC groups had high SP rates (89% vs 77%, p = 0.061) and elevated GMT titer with higher levels in SLE (129.1(104.1-154.1) vs 54.8(45.0-64.6), p < 0.001). Frequency of two previous years' influenza vaccination was high and comparable in SLE and HC (89% vs 90%, p = 1.000). Four weeks post-vaccination, median GMT increased for both groups and remained higher in SLE compared to HC (239.9(189.5-290.4) vs 94.5(72.6-116.4), p < 0.0001) with a comparable FI-GMT (2.3(1.8-2.9) vs 1.9(1.5-2.3), p = 0.051). SC rates were low and comparable for both groups (16% vs 11%, respectively, p = 0.974). Disease activity scores remained stable throughout the study (p = 1.000) and severe adverse events were not identified. Conclusion Influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine has an adequate safety profile. The distinct immunogenicity pattern from other influenza A components characterized by a remarkably high pre- and post-vaccination SP rate and high GMT levels may be associated with previous influenza A vaccination.

    (2021) TONACIO, Adriana Coracini; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; FERREIRA FILHO, Julio Cesar Rente; BARROS, Marilia Mantovani Sampaio; LEON, Elaine Pires; LOMBARDI, Suzete Cleusa Ferreira Spina; MENDRONE JUNIOR, Alfredo; AZEVEDO, Adriana de Souza; SCHWARCZ, Waleska Dias; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; LOPES, Michelle Remiao Ugolini; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria Rodrigues; BARROS, Percival Degrava Sampaio; ANDRADE, Danieli Castro Oliveira de; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana Cristina de; MORAES, Julio Cesar Bertacini de; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; MIOSSI, Renata; DUARTE, Alberto Jose da Silva; LOPES, Marta Heloisa; KALLAS, Esper Georges; SILVA, Clovis Artur Almeida da; BONFA, Eloisa
    Background Brazil faced a yellow fever(YF) outbreak in 2016-2018 and vaccination was considered for autoimmune rheumatic disease patients(ARD) with low immunosuppression due to YF high mortality. Objective This study aimed to evaluate, prospectively for the first time, the short-term immunogenicity of the fractional YF vaccine(YFV) immunization in ARD patients with low immunossupression. Methods and Results A total of 318 participants(159 ARD and 159 age- and sex-matched healthy controls) were vaccinated with the fractional-dose(one fifth) of 17DD-YFV. All subjects were evaluated at entry(D0), D5, D10, and D30 post-vaccination for clinical/laboratory and disease activity parameters for ARD patients. Post-vaccination seroconversion rate(83.7%vs.96.6%, p = 0.0006) and geometric mean titers(GMT) of neutralizing antibodies[1143.7 (95%CI 1012.3-1292.2) vs.731 (95%CI 593.6-900.2), p< 0.001] were significantly lower in ARD compared to controls. A lower positivity rate of viremia was also identified for ARD patients compared to controls at D5 (53%vs.70%, p = 0.005) and the levels persisted in D10 for patients and reduced for controls(51%vs.19%, p = 0.0001). The viremia was the only variable associated with seroconvertion. No serious adverse events were reported. ARD disease activity parameters remained stable at D30(p>0.05). Conclusion Fractional-dose 17DD-YF vaccine in ARD patients resulted in a high rate of seroconversion rate(> 80%) but lower than controls, with a longer but less intense viremia. This vaccine was immunogenic, safe and did not induce flares in ARD under low immunosuppression and may be indicated in YF outbreak situations and for patients who live or travel to endemic areas.

    Immunogenicity and safety of the 2009 non-adjuvanted influenza A/H1N1 vaccine in a large cohort of autoimmune rheumatic diseases
    (2011) SAAD, Carla G. S.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; SILVA, Clovis A.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; CALICH, Ana Luisa; MORAES, Julio C. B.; RIBEIRO, Ana C. M.; VIANA, Vilma S. T.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; CARVALHO, Jozelio F.; FRANCA, Ivan L. A.; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; SHINJO, Samuel K.; SAMPAIO-BARROS, Percival D.; CALEIRO, Maria T.; GONCALVES, Celio R.; FULLER, Ricardo; LEVY-NETO, Mauricio; TIMENETSKY, Maria do Carmo S.; PRECIOSO, Alexander R.; BONFA, Eloisa
    Background Despite the WHO recommendation that the 2010-2011 trivalent seasonal flu vaccine must contain A/California/7/2009/H1N1-like virus there is no consistent data regarding its immunogenicity and safety in a large autoimmune rheumatic disease (ARD) population. Methods 1668 ARD patients (systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), systemic sclerosis, psoriatic arthritis (PsA), Behcet's disease (BD), mixed connective tissue disease, primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS), dermatomyositis (DM), primary Sjogren's syndrome, Takayasu's arteritis, polymyositis and Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's) (GPA)) and 234 healthy controls were vaccinated with a non-adjuvanted influenza A/California/7/2009(H1N1) virus-like strain flu. Subjects were evaluated before vaccination and 21 days post-vaccination. The percentage of seroprotection, seroconversion and the factor increase in geometric mean titre (GMT) were calculated. Results After immunisation, seroprotection rates (68.5% vs 82.9% p < 0.0001), seroconversion rates (63.4% vs 76.9%, p < 0.001) and the factor increase in GMT (8.9 vs 13.2 p < 0.0001) were significantly lower in ARD than controls. Analysis of specific diseases revealed that seroprotection significantly reduced in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001), PsA (p=0.0006), AS (p=0.04), BD (p=0.04) and DM (p=0.04) patients than controls. The seroconversion rates in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001) and PsA (p=0.0006) patients and the increase in GMTs in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001) and PsA (p < 0.0001) patients were also reduced compared with controls. Moderate and severe side effects were not reported. Conclusions The novel recognition of a diverse vaccine immunogenicity profile in distinct ARDs supports the notion that a booster dose may be recommended for diseases with suboptimal immune responses. This large study also settles the issue of vaccine safety. (ClinicalTrials.gov #NCT01151644)

    Immunogenicity decay and case incidence six months post Sinovac-CoronaVac vaccine in autoimmune rheumatic diseases patients
    (2022) SILVA, Clovis A.; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana C.; KUPA, Leonard V. K.; YUKI, Emily F. N.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; SAAD, Carla G. S.; FUSCO, Solange R. G.; PEREIRA, Rosa M.

    Characterising the response to SARS-CoV-2 post vaccination is critical in the appraisement of the induced immune response, performance and protective potential. Here the authors present data from a phase 4 clinical trial in autoimmune rheumatic disease patients 6 months post second dose of Sinovac-CoronaVac inactivated vaccine that show a marked reduction in antibody particularly in males or those under treatment with immune targeting therapies but saw no rise in COVID-19 disease. The determination of durability and vaccine-associated protection is essential for booster doses strategies, however data on the stability of SARS-CoV-2 immunity are scarce. Here we assess anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunogenicity decay and incident cases six months after the 2(nd) dose of Sinovac-CoronaVac inactivated vaccine (D210) in 828 autoimmune rheumatic diseases patients compared with 207 age/sex-balanced control individuals. The primary outcome is the presence of anti-S1/S2 SARS-CoV-2 IgG at 6 months compared to 6 weeks after 2nd vaccine dose for decay evaluation. Secondary outcomes are presence of neutralizing antibodies, percent inhibition by neutralizing, geometric mean titers and cumulative incident cases at 6 months after 2nd dose. Anti-S1/S2 IgG positivity and titers reduce to 23.8% and 38% in patients (p < 0.001) during the six-month follow up and 20% and 51% in controls (p < 0.001), respectively. Neutralizing antibodies positivity and percent inhibition declines 41% and 54% in patients (p < 0.001) and 39.7% and 47% in controls (p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis show males (OR = 0.56;95% CI0.40-0.79), prednisone (OR = 0.56; 95% CI0.41-0.76), anti-TNF (OR = 0.66;95% CI0.45-0.96), abatacept (OR = 0.29; 95% CI0.15-0.56) and rituximab (OR = 0.32;95% CI0.11-0.90) associate with a substantial reduction in IgG response at day 210 in patients. Although cellular immunity was not assessed, a decrease of COVID-19 cases (from 27.5 to 8.1/100 person-years; p < 0.001) is observed despite the concomitant emergence and spread of the Delta variant. Altogether we show a reduction in immunity 6-months of Sinovac-CoronaVac 2nd dose, particularly in males and those under immunosuppressives therapies, without a concomitant rise in COVID-19 cases.

    Periodontitis treatment improves systemic lupus erythematosus response to immunosuppressive therapy
    (2014) FABBRI, Cristiana; FULLER, Ricardo; BONFA, Eloisa; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; D'ALLEVA, Paulo Sergio R.; BORBA, Eduardo F.
    Periodontal disease (POD) may affect rheumatic diseases severity, but there are no data regarding the effect of its treatment on disease activity in SLE patients under immunosuppressive therapy. Forty-nine consecutive SLE patients (SLEDAI a parts per thousand yenaEuro parts per thousand 2) with POD and under corticosteroid and cyclophosphamide pulse therapy (IVCYC) were selected. Periodontal assessment included bleeding gingival index (BGI), probing depth (PD), and probing attachment level (PAL). At entry, POD was defined as BGI > 1 and patients were assigned to groups according to the availability of odontological intervention in TREATED (n = 32) and NOT TREATED (n = 17). SLEDAI and POD parameters were determined at entry and after 3 months. Age, female gender, and race were alike among TREATED and NOT TREATED (p > 0.05). Both groups had also comparable disease duration (10.7 +/- 6.8 vs. 11.0 +/- 6.6, p = 0.83), IVCYC number (5.8 +/- 4.8 vs. 4.5 +/- 4.8, p = 0.17), and SLEDAI (5.9 +/- 4.2 vs. 6.3 +/- 4.3, p = 0.73) as well as POD parameters [BGI (40.8 +/- 31.0 vs. 40.7 +/- 36.2 %, p = 0.89), PD (1.7 +/- 1.8 vs. 1.5 +/- 0.60 mm, p = 0.80), and PAL (2.5 +/- 1.9 vs. 1.9 +/- 1.1 mm, p = 0.18)]. At the end of the study, TREATED group had a significant improvement in SLEDAI (5.9 +/- 4.2 vs. 3.4 +/- 3.3, p = 0.04) with a paralleled reduction in BGI (40.8 +/- 31.0 vs. 15.2 +/- 17.2 %, p < 0.01), PD (1.7 +/- 1.8 vs. 1.1 +/- 0.3 mm, p < 0.01), and PAL (2.5 +/- 1.9 vs. 1.7 +/- 0.9 mm, p < 0.01). In contrast, SLEDAI (6.3 +/- 4.3 vs. 6.0 +/- 5.5, p = 0.40) and POD parameters [BGI (p = 0.33), PD (p = 0.91), and PAL (p = 0.39)] remained largely unchanged in NOT TREATED group. Periodontal disease treatment seems to have a beneficial effect in controlling disease activity in SLE patients under immunosuppressive therapy. Therefore, management of this modifiable risk factor is recommended.

    Influenza A/H1N1 vaccination of patients with SLE: can antimalarial drugs restore diminished response under immunosuppressive therapy?
    (2012) BORBA, Eduardo F.; SAAD, Carla G. S.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; CALICH, Ana L. G.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; RIBEIRO, Ana C. M.; MORAES, Julio C. B.; LEON, Elaine P.; COSTA, Luciana P.; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; SILVA, Clovis A.

    Objective. To assess the efficacy and safety of pandemic 2009 influenza A (H1N1) in SLE under different therapeutic regimens. Methods. A total of 555 SLE patients and 170 healthy controls were vaccinated with a single dose of a non-adjuvanted preparation. According to current therapy, patients were initially classified as SLE No Therapy (n = 75) and SLE with Therapy (n = 480). Subsequent evaluations included groups under monotherapy: chloroquine (CQ) (n = 105), prednisone (PRED) epsilon 20 mg (n = 76), immunosuppressor (IS) (n = 95) and those with a combination of these drugs. Anti-H1N1 titres and seroconversion (SC) rate were evaluated at entry and 21 days post-vaccination. Results. The SLE with Therapy group had lower SC compared with healthy controls (59.0 vs 80.0%; P < 0.0001), whereas the SLE No Therapy group had equivalent SC (72 vs 80.0%; P = 0.18) compared with healthy controls. Further comparison revealed that the SC of SLE No Therapy (72%) was similar to the CQ group (69.5%; P = 0.75), but it was significantly reduced in PRED epsilon 20 mg (53.9%; P = 0.028), IS (55.7%; P = 0.035) and PRED epsilon 20 mg + IS (45.4%; P = 0.038). The concomitant use of CQ in each of these later regimens was associated with SC responses comparable with SLE No Therapy group (72%): PRED epsilon 20 mg + CQ (71.4%; P = 1.00), IS + CQ (65.2%; P = 0.54) and PRED epsilon 20 mg + IS + CQ (57.4%; P = 0.09). Conclusion. Pandemic influenza A H1N1/2009 vaccine response is diminished in SLE under immunosuppressive therapy and antimalarials seems to restore this immunogenicity.

    Robust immunogenicity to the H3N2 component of influenza A vaccine in primary Sjogren syndrome
    (2023) PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; FORMIGA, Francisco Fellipe Claudino; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; SIQUEIRA, Marilda Agudo Mendonca Teixeira de; CAPAO, Artur Silva Vidal; PROENCA, Adriana Coracini Tonacio de; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; LEON, Elaine Pires; MARTINS, Victor Adriano de Oliveira; LOPES, Marta Heloisa; DUARTE, Alberto Jose da Silva; SILVA, Clovis Artur Almeida da; BONFA, Eloisa
    Introduction Influenza A (H3N2) virus is the major cause of morbidity/mortality due to seasonal influenza over 50 years. Data about the safety/immunogenicity of influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine are scarce in primary Sjogren syndrome (pSS). Methods Twenty-one consecutive pSS patients and 42 HC (healthy control individuals) were immunized with influenza A/Singapore/INFIMH-16-0019/2016 (H3N2)-like virus. Rates of SP (seroprotection) and SC (seroconversion), GMT (geometric mean titers), FI-GMT (factor increase in GMT), ESSDAI (EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index), and adverse events were appraised before and 4 weeks post-vaccination. Results pSS and HC had similar mean age (51.2 +/- 14.2 vs. 50.6 +/- 12.1 years, p =0.886). Pre-vaccination SP rates were high in pSS and HC (90.5% vs. 71.4%, p =0.114), and GMT were higher in pSS [80.0 (52.4-160.0) vs. 40.0 (20.0-80.0), p =0.001]. The percentage of influenza vaccination in the preceding two years was elevated and similar in pSS and HC (94.1% vs. 94.6%, p = 1.000). GMT values augmented in both groups four weeks after vaccination and persisted higher in the first group [160.0 (80.0-320.0) vs. 80.0 (40.0-80.0), p< 0.001] with equivalent FI-GMT [1.4 (1.0-2.8) vs. 1.4 (1.0-2.0), p = 0.410]. Both groups had low and similar SC rates (19.0% vs. 9.5%, p = 0.423). ESSDAI values persisted steadily during the study (p = 0.313). No serious adverse events have occurred. Conclusion The novel demonstration that the influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine induces a different pattern of immunogenicity from other influenza A constituents in pSS, featured by a desirable high pre- and post-vaccination immunogenicity, is in line with reported differences in immune responses between strains in trivalent vaccines and may be related to pre-existing immunity.

    Serum uric acid levels are associated with lupus nephritis in patients with normal renal function
    (2018) CALICH, Ana Luisa; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; UGOLINI-LOPES, Michelle Remiao; ROCHA, Luiza Fuoco da; BONFA, Eloisa; FULLER, Ricardo
    Uric acid has been recognised as a potential marker of endothelial dysfunction and kidney disease but there are scarce data about its importance in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) nephritis. This study aimed to evaluate serum uric acid (UA) levels in lupus nephritis (LN), by comparing SLE patients with normal renal function, with and without nephritis. Forty-six female SLE patients were consecutively selected and divided in two groups according to renal activity at the evaluation: presence of a recently diagnosed lupus nephritis (LN+, n = 18) and absence of lupus nephritis (LN-, n = 28). Age-matched healthy women were selected (CONTROL, n = 28). Patients with gout, creatinine clearance lower than 80 ml/min and use of drugs that interfere in UA were excluded. Laboratory and clinical data were analysed by appropriate tests. A multivariate analysis was performed, and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted, and the area under the curve was calculated to assess the diagnostic strength of UA in LN. The mean age was similar among LN+, LN- and CONTROL groups (32.44 +/- 6.09 vs. 30.68 +/- 5.36 vs. 30.86 +/- 5.00 years, p = 0.52). UA was significantly higher in LN+ compared to LN- (5.54 +/- 1.67 vs. 3.65 +/- 1.090 mg/dL, p < 0.001) and CONTROL (5.54 +/- 1.67 vs. 3.92 +/- 0.95 mg/dL p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis confirmed that high UA was an independent variable related to LN (p < 0.001). The cut-off value for UA using the ROC curve was 4.47 mg/dL (AUC 0.86, p = 0.00004, CI 95% 0.75-0.96). Lupus nephritis was associated with higher UA. Hyperuricemia as a predictor of renal damage in SLE needs to be evaluated in further studies.
