Similar Time Course of Humoral Response to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccines in People With and Without Type 1 Diabetes

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Prospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Persons with and without T1D have similar humoral antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines during 12-months of follow-up.

Study context

Population
Adults who received at least two doses of mRNA-1273 or BNT162b2 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine
Participants
27 vs 89
Exposure
T1D vs control subjects
  • T1Dn = 27
  • Controln = 89reference
Outcome
Total antibodies against the receptor-binding domain and neutralizing antibodies
Follow-up
12 months
Methodological details12-month follow-up
  • 12-month follow-up

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Antibody levels after vaccination · 12-month follow-up
  • Antibody levels did not differ between T1D and non-T1D groups

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Breakthrough infection rates

Breakthrough infection rates did not differ between T1D and non-T1D groups

Determinants of antibody response

Older age predicted lower antibody levels; SARS-CoV-2 infection or booster gave higher levels in both groups
mRNA-1273 associated with higher antibody levels than BNT162b2 until 6 months after first dose
  • Multivariate repeated measures model
