Durability of serologic responses to inactivated hepatitis A virus vaccination among people living with HIV following acute hepatitis A outbreak : a 5-year follow-up study

Serologic responses to hepatitis A virus (HAV) vaccination may wane among immunocompromised populations. To evaluate the long-term seroresponses to 2-dose HAV vaccination, we retrospectively included people living with HIV (PLWH) who had achieved seroconversion within 12 months after vaccination at a university hospital during an outbreak of acute hepatitis A between 2015 and 2017. PLWH included in the study received either Havrix or Vaqta. The seroresponses were evaluated 60 months after the second dose of vaccination and estimated by the intention-to-treat (ITT) with last-observation-carried-forward (LOCF) and per-protocol (PP) analyses. Overall, 986 PLWH (median age, 34 years and CD4 count, 587 cells/µL) were included. The rates of PLWH with persistent seroprotection at month 60 of vaccination were 90.7% (894/986) and 97.4% (748/768) in the ITT with LOCF and PP analyses, respectively. PLWH with persistent seroprotection had achieved higher peak anti-HAV IgG titers after vaccination and had a slower decline in antibody levels compared with those with seroreversion. In the multivariable analysis, seroreversion at month 60 was associated with a higher body-mass index (per 1-kg/m2 increase, AOR, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.04-1.17), lowest-ever CD4 count (per 10-cell/µL increase, AOR 0.98; 95% CI, 0.97-1.00), plasma HIV RNA <200 copies/ml at vaccination (AOR, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.14-0.59), and having received Vaqta as the first dose of HAV vaccination (AOR, 0.44; 95% CI, 0.27-0.70). The seroprotection against HAV remained high in the long-term follow-up among PLWH on antiretroviral therapy after 2-dose HAV vaccination. Regular monitoring of seroresponses and timely administration of HAV vaccines are warranted to maintain seroprotection.
