Adherence to Vaccines in Adult Patients with Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases: A Two-Year Prospective Portuguese Cohort Study. Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:vaccines11030703. [PMID: 36992287 PMCID: PMC10056318 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines11030703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) treated with immunomodulatory therapy present an increased susceptibility to infections. Vaccination is a crucial element in the management of IMID patients; however, rates remain suboptimal. This study intended to clarify the adherence to prescribed vaccines. Materials and methods: This prospective cohort study included 262 consecutive adults with inflammatory bowel disease and rheumatological diseases who underwent an infectious diseases evaluation before initiating or switching immunosuppressive/biological therapy. Vaccine prescription and adherence were assessed during an infectious diseases (ID) consultation using a real-world multidisciplinary clinical project. Results: At baseline, less than 5% had all their vaccines up-to-date. More than 650 vaccines were prescribed to 250 (95.4%) patients. The most prescribed were pneumococcal and influenza vaccines, followed by hepatitis A and B vaccines. Adherence to each of the vaccines ranged from 69.1–87.3%. Complete adherence to vaccines occurred in 151 (60.4%) patients, while 190 (76%) got at least two-thirds of them. Twenty patients (8%) did not adhere to any of the vaccines. No significant differences were found in the adherence rates of patients with different sociodemographic and health-related determinants. Conclusions: ID physicians can play a role in the process of increasing vaccine prescription and adherence. However, more data on patients’ beliefs and vaccine hesitancy, along with mobilization of all health care professionals and adequate local interventions, shall be considered to improve vaccine adherence.

Recommendations of the Spanish Group on Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis on the importance, screening and vaccination in inflammatory bowel disease patients. GASTROENTEROLOGIA Y HEPATOLOGIA 2022; 45:805-818. [PMID: 35577225 DOI: 10.1016/j.gastrohep.2022.03.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2022] [Revised: 03/22/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may require different immunosuppressive treatments throughout their illness. It is essential to assess the immunization status of patients at diagnosis or, if this is not possible, at least before the beginning of immunosuppressive therapy and, subsequently, administering the appropriate vaccines. Therefore, the aim of this work is to establish clear and concise recommendations on vaccination in patients with IBD in the different settings of our clinical practice including vaccination in children, during pregnancy, breastfeeding or on trips. This consensus document emphasises the differences between inactivated and attenuated vaccines and the different degrees of immunosuppression and correlates them with the administration of both mandatory and optional vaccines recommended to our patients with IBD. Finally, as a summary, 17 recommendations are established based on the available scientific evidence and expert opinion. A multidisciplinary team with extensive experience in IBD and vaccination, made up of specialists in gastroenterology, paediatrics, nursing and pharmacy, has participated in the preparation of these recommendations of the Spanish Working Group on Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.

Abstract
AIM To analyse literature data on vaccine related induction, worsening of the disease and disease reccurrences as well as vaccine safety and efficacy among pediatric patients with acquired inflammatory immune-mediated neuromuscular disorders (NMD). METHODS Medline, Pub Med and Scopus database search from 1975 to 2020 focused on pediatric age was conducted including peer reviews, meta analyses and epidemiological studies on vaccination and Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), Bell's palsy, optic neuritis (ON), myasthenia gravis (MG), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and immune-mediated inflammatory myopathy (IM). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION s: There are no strong evidence supporting relationship between vaccination with different pediatric vaccines and development of first episodes or reccurrences of GBS, Bell's palsy, optic neuritis (ON), juvenile MG, CIDP, and IM. The vaccination and revaccination with inactivated vaccines is considered safe in children with medical history of GBS, Bell's palsy, ON, MG and IM. Caution when immunization against influenza, quadrivalent conjugated meningococcal vaccine (MCV4) and pneumococcal disease and avoiding tetanus toxoid immunization in CIDP patients is suggested. Patients with immune mediated acquired NMD should be vaccinated with live vaccines before the initiation of immunosupressive treatment. Immunosuppressed patients with low protective antibody titers should be considered for revaccination.

Abstract
With the advent of biologicals, more and more therapeutics are available that specifically address specific switch points in the pathomechanism of immunologically dominated diseases. Thus, the focus of diagnostics and therapy (precision medicine) is more on the individual disease characteristics of the individual patient. Regarding the different phenotypes of atopic diseases, severe asthma was the first entity for which biologicals were approved, followed by urticaria, and finally atopic dermatitis and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Experience in the treatment of severe bronchial asthma has shown that the intensity of the response to biological therapy depends on the quality of clinical and immunological phenotyping of the patients. This also applies to different diseases of the atopic form, as patients can suffer from several atopic diseases at the same time, each with different characteristics. Biologics are already emerging that may represent a suitable therapy for allergic bronchial asthma, which often occurs together with severe neurodermatitis, and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. In practice, however, the question of possible combinations of biologicals for the therapy of complex clinical pictures of individual patients is increasingly arising. In doing so, the side effect profile must be taken into account, including hypersensitivity reactions, whose diagnostic and logistical management must aim at a safe and efficient therapy of the underlying disease. Increased attention must also be paid to biological therapy in pregnancy and planned (predictable) vaccinations as well as existing infections, such as SARS-CoV-2 infection. Before starting a biological therapy, the immune status should be checked with regard to chronic viral and bacterial infections and, if necessary, the vaccination status should be refreshed or missing vaccinations should be made up for before starting therapy. Currently, reliable data on the effect of biologicals on the immunological situation of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 are not available. Therefore, research and development of suitable diagnostic methods for detection of immunologically caused side effects as well as detection of potential therapy responders and non-responders is of great importance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic and incurable entity. Therapy with anti-TNF-α agents was the first biologic therapy approved in Mexico for IBD. New biologic agents, such as vedolizumab and ustekinumab, have recently been added, as have small-molecule inhibitors. AIM To update the biologic therapeutic approach to IBD in Mexico with new anti-TNF-α agents and novel biologics whose mechanisms of action induce and maintain remission of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis (UC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Mexican specialists in the areas of gastroenterology and inflammatory bowel disease were summoned to participate. The consensus was divided into 3 modules, with 49 statements. The Delphi method was applied, sending the statements to all participants to be analyzed and edited, before the face-to-face meeting. During said meeting, the clinical studies were shown, emphasizing the level of clinical evidence, and the final discussion and voting round on the level of agreement of all the statements was conducted. RESULTS In this second Mexican consensus, recommendations are made for new anti-TNF-α agents, such as golimumab, new biologics with other mechanisms of action, such as vedolizumab and ustekinumab, as well as for the small-molecule inhibitor, tofacitinib. CONCLUSIONS The updated recommendations focus on patient-reported outcomes, biologic therapy, small-molecule inhibitors, and the safety aspects of each of the drugs.

Abstract
The uveitides are a heterogenous group of ocular inflammatory disorders that account for the third highest cause of blindness worldwide, responsible for 5-10% of visual impairment globally. Up to 35% of patients with uveitis can suffer significant vision loss. To prevent irreversible structural damage and blindness, it is important that the diagnosis and commencement of appropriate therapy occurs promptly. Management includes topical and systemic corticosteroid therapy and conventional immunomodulatory agents, including methotrexate, azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil and cyclosporin. Significant progress has been made in the past decade in our understanding of the immunopathological pathways that drive intraocular inflammation, allowing the development of targeted therapy with biologic agents. These include TNF-α inhibitors, such as infliximab, adalimumab and etanercept; interleukin blockers, such as tocilizumab and daclizumab; and other targeted therapies, such as rituximab and abatacept. The efficacy of these agents has been studied in cases of severe uveitis that are refractory to conventional immunomodulatory agents and provide exciting results that have revolutionised uveitis management. Though the biologic era has provided a large armamentarium to treat uveitis, ongoing challenges and cases of recalcitrant uveitis remain, posing a challenge to internal medicine physicians. This comprehensive review aims to construct an updated summary on the existing evidence pertaining to the use of biologic agents in the treatment of uveitis. Methods include a systematic search for studies between 2000 and 2018 using PubMed, EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE and Cochrane libraries.

QuantiFERON-TB Gold Test Conversion Is Associated with Active Tuberculosis Development in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients Treated with Biological Agents: An Experience of a Medical Center in Taiwan. Gastroenterol Res Pract 2019; 2019:7132875.

Abstract
Taiwan has a lower prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and a higher prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) infection than Western countries. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of latent TB (LTB) and active TB infection in IBD patients treated with biological agents. From January 2000 to September 2018, we retrospectively collected data from IBD patients treated with biological agents at a tertiary referral center. Patients underwent a QuantiFERON-TB Gold test (QFT) to screen for TB infection before and after biological treatment courses. The diagnostic age, sex, body mass index, hepatitis B virus infection, biochemistry profile, treatment regimens, and the results of the QFT were analyzed. Overall, 130 IBD patients who received biological treatment were enrolled. The results of the QFT before biological treatment were determined in 120 patients (92%); of these, 10 were positive (8%), 110 were negative (85%), and 10 were indeterminate (9%). Six patients demonstrated seroconversion after biological treatment, as determined by the QFT. Three patients (2.4%) developed active pulmonary TB after biological treatment. In subgroup analysis, the positive QFT patients had a trend of lower baseline serum C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate levels than the negative QFT group. The present study demonstrates that the prevalence of LTB before and after biological treatment is higher in Taiwan than in most Western countries and similar to other Asian countries. Therefore, screening and monitoring of TB infection are necessary for IBD patients before and during biological treatments in Taiwan.

Abstract
The therapeutic armamentarium of inflammatory bowel disease is rapidly evolving with the development of novel treatment options including targeted monoclonal antibodies and small molecules. With these new therapies come additional safety and side effect concerns. Infections, malignancies, immunogenicity, and metabolic issues exist for each treatment. Management of these agents in the face of such complications is a challenge clinicians will encounter. In this article, we review the existing safety data behind the monoclonal antibodies and small molecules, suggest appropriate risk stratification and assessment considerations before and during therapy, and make expert recommendations on the management of potential complications or clinical scenarios.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The advent, more than two decades ago, of monoclonal antibodies and soluble receptors targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α has revolutionized the therapeutic approach to otherwise difficult-to-treat autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. However, due to the pleiotropic functions played by this pro-inflammatory cytokine (with particular relevance in granuloma maintenance), TNF-α blockade may increase the incidence of serious infections. Areas covered: The present review summarizes the biological rationale supporting the impact of anti-TNF-α therapy on the host's susceptibility to infection. The structure, mode of action, and indications of available agents are reviewed, as well as the clinical evidence coming from clinical trials and observational registries. We discuss the impact of patient- and disease-related factors influencing the occurrence of infection. Finally, strategies for risk minimization are also covered, with particular attention to recommendations for screening of latent tuberculosis infection and management of chronic hepatitis B infection. Expert commentary: Methodological limitations (confounding by indication bias, patient dropout, or switching therapies) should be considered when interpreting observational data. Clinicians must individualize the infection risk assessment not only on the basis of the specific anti-TNF-α agent used or the expected duration of therapy, but also by taking into account the baseline susceptibility of a given patient.
