Background. The 2009 pandemic of influenza A (H1N1) prompted an urgent worldwide vaccination campaign, especially of high-risk subjects, such as maintenance haemodialysis (HD) patients. Still the immunogenicity of the pandemic A (H1N1) vaccine in HD patients is unknown.Methods. We prospectively studied the immunogenicity of a monovalent adjuvanted influenza A/California/2009 (H1N1) vaccine (Pandemrix (R), GSK Biologicals, Rixen-sart, Belgium) in HD patients and controls. Antibody level was measured using a seroneutralization assay before (D-0) and 30 days after (D-30) a single 3.75 mu g vaccine dose. Specimens were tested in quadruplicates. Geometric mean (GM) antibody titers were determined in each subject at D-0 and D-30. Seroconversion was defined as an increase in GM titers by a factor 4 or more.Results. Fifty-three adult HD patients [aged 71 +/- 10, 58.5% males, on HD for a median of 38 (3 - 146) months] and 32 control subjects (aged 47.3 +/- 14, 31.3% males) were analyzed. Baseline GM titers were similar in HD patients and controls [7.9 (6.6 - 9.6) vs 10 (6 - 17); p = 0.69]. Seroconversion was observed in 30 (93.8%) controls and 34 (64.2%) HD patients (p = 0.002). In addition, GM titers at D-30 were significantly higher in controls than in HD patients [373 (217 - 640) vs 75.5 (42.5 - 134); p = 0.001]. HD patients were significantly older than controls (p < 0.001) and more likely to be males (p = 0.02). However, by multivariate analysis, HD status [OR 0.13 (0.02-0.78), p = 0.03], but neither age [OR 0.99 (0.96 - 1.03); p = 0.7] nor male gender [OR 1.31 (0.45 - 3.85); p = 0.63] was independently associated with seroconversion. The vaccine was generally well tolerated by HD patients.Conclusions. Only 64% of chronic HD patients developed seroconversion after a single dose of adjuvanted influenza A (H1N1) vaccine, a much lower rate than in controls (94%). These results underscore the substantial immunodeficiency associated with End-Stage Renal Disease. The persistence of protective antibodies as well as the effect of a booster dose remain to be investigated in HD patients.
