Comparison of intracellular cytokine staining versus an ELISA-based assay to assess CMV-specific cell-mediated immunity in high-risk kidney transplant recipients

The best method for monitoring cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific cell-mediated immunity (CMV-CMI) among high-risk kidney transplant (KT) recipients remains uncertain. We assessed CMV-CMI by intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) by flow cytometry and a commercial interferon (IFN)-γ release assay (QuantiFERON®-CMV [QTF-CMV]) at posttransplant months 3, 4, and 5 in 53 CMV-seropositive KT recipients that had received induction therapy with antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and a 3-month course of valganciclovir prophylaxis. The discriminative capacity (areas under receiver operating characteristics curve [auROCs]) and diagnostic accuracy to predict immune protection against CMV infection from the discontinuation of prophylaxis to month 12 were compared between both methods. There was significant although moderate correlations between CMV-specific IFN-γ-producing CD8+ T-cell counts enumerated by ICS and IFN-γ levels by QTF-CMV at months 3 (rho: 0.493; p = 0.005) and 4 (rho: 0.440; p = 0.077). The auROCs for CMV-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells by ICS were nonsignificantly higher than that of QTF-CMV (0.696 and 0.733 vs. 0.678; p = 0.900 and 0.692, respectively). The optimal cut-off of ≥0.395 CMV-specific CD8+ T-cells yielded a sensitivity of 86.4%, specificity of 54.6%, positive predictive value of 79.2% and negative predictive value of 66.7% to predict protection. The corresponding estimates for QTF-CMV (IFN-γ levels ≥0.2 IU/mL) were 78.9%, 37.5%, 75.0%, and 42.9%, respectively. The enumeration of CMV-specific IFN-γ-producing CD8+ T-cells at the time of cessation of prophylaxis performed slightly better than the QTF-CMV assay to predict immune protection in seropositive KT recipients previously treated with ATG.
