Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to assess humoral immune response in kidney transplant recipients after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG

Detailed Description

TASMANIA is a single-center prospective observational study with 1000 kidney transplant recipients from Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine (IKEM), Prague. The primary objective of the study is to assess humoral immune response to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines in SARS-CoV-2-naive kidney transplant recipients using immunochemiluminescent assay. As comparator several cohorts will be evaluated:

  1. kidney transplant recipients with previous SARS-CoV-2 exposition verified by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)

  2. kidney transplant recipients vaccinated on waiting list (a) SARS-CoV-2 naive (b) SARS-CoV-2 previously exposed

The secondary objective is to determine clinical variables affecting antibody levels. SARS-CoV-2 anti S1/2 antibodies will be tested ≥ 15 days after the second dose of mRNA vaccines and in 3 months after the first blood sampling.

In subanalysis 50 kidney transplant recipients will be examined for a cell-mediated immune response after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine Enzyme Linked using Immuno Spot (ELISPOT) assay.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
SARS-CoV-2 naive

Kidney transplant recipients without previous SARS-CoV-2 infection verified by absence of RT-PCR test in national database who receive SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine after transplantation.

Diagnostic Test: anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG
Immunochemiluminescent assay by DiaSorin S.p.A. Italy

SARS-Cov-2 exposed

Kidney transplant recipients with previous SARS-CoV-2 exposition verified by positivity of RT-PCR test in national database who receive SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine after transplantation.

Diagnostic Test: anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG
Immunochemiluminescent assay by DiaSorin S.p.A. Italy

Waiting list

Kidney transplant recipients who were vaccinated on waiting list (a) SARS-CoV-2 naive (b) SARS-Cov-2 exposed

Diagnostic Test: anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG
Immunochemiluminescent assay by DiaSorin S.p.A. Italy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Humoral immune response in kidney transplant recipients following anti-SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination. [15 days-90 days]

    anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG measured ≥15 days after vaccination

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Humoral immune response in kidney transplant recipients following anti-SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination. [3 months - 6 months]

    anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG measured 3 ≥ months after the first blood sampling

  2. Cellular immune response in kidney transplant recipients following anti-SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination. [15 - 90 days]

    Cellular immunity measured by ELISPOT assay in subgroup of 50 patients

  3. Graft function after vaccination [15 days-90 days]

    Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)

  4. Clinical variables affecting antibody levels [15 days-90 days]

    Sex, previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, Age, Retransplantation, BMI, time from transplant, eGFR, diabetes mellitus, use of imunosuppression (tacrolimus, cyclosporine A, CNI-free regimen, mycophenolate mofetil, depleting therapy).

  5. The impact of frailty syndrom on humoral response in older kidney recipients (70+ years of age) following anti-SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination [15 days-90 days]

    Fried frailty score
