- W3186228749 abstract "With great interest, we read the article published by Doberne and colleagues1Doberne J.W. Jawitz O.K. Raman V. Bryner B.S. Schroder J.N. Milano C.A. Heart transplantation survival outcomes of HIV positive and negative recipients.Ann Thorac Surg. 2021; 111: 1465-1471Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (7) Google Scholar regarding heart transplantation outcomes in HIV-positive (HIV+) and HIV-negative (HIV–) recipients. We commend the authors for their important work reporting no differences in survival among these 2 patient populations. Propensity score matching and Cox proportional hazards modeling both supported the conclusion that HIV+ recipient status was not an independent predictor of posttransplant mortality. Additionally, HIV+ recipients experienced higher rates of acute rejection and treatment with antirejection medications before discharge. Although 5-year posttransplant outcomes suggest similar rates of survival among HIV+ and HIV– recipients, the elevated risk of acute rejection in the former should be highlighted. Regarding this patient population, treatment with more potent immunosuppressants like high-dose corticosteroids has shown efficacy in treating acute organ rejection.2Anil Kumar M.S. Sierka D.R. Damask A.M. et al.Safety and success of kidney transplantation and concomitant immunosuppression in HIV-positive patients.Kidney Int. 2005; 67: 1622-1629Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (190) Google Scholar This raises a critical issue that should be emphasized as an additional contraindication to transplanting HIV+ recipients, especially while there remains a risk for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Recent studies have demonstrated diminished levels of spike-specific antibodies in immunosuppressed individuals who received the COVID-19 vaccine.3Grupper A. Rabinowich L. Schwartz D. et al.Reduced humoral response to mRNA SARS-CoV-2 BNT162b2 vaccine in kidney transplant recipients without prior exposure to the virus.Am J Transplant. 2021; 21: 2719-2726Crossref PubMed Scopus (260) Google Scholar This is concerning for 2 reasons: 1) protection from COVID-19 is positively correlated with neutralizing antibody titers4Mercado N.B. Zahn R. Wegmann F. et al.Single-shot Ad26 vaccine protects against SARS-CoV-2 in rhesus macaques.Nature. 2020; 586: 583-588Crossref PubMed Scopus (580) Google Scholar and 2) mass vaccination has prompted full reopening and lifting of mask mandates despite underwhelming vaccination rates in several regions across the United States. Immunosuppressed individuals are subsequently placed at greater risk for morbidity and mortality with exposure to SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2). It should be noted that a comprehensive pretransplant evaluation ensures up-to-date vaccination status before initiating immunosuppressive therapy. Nevertheless, given the emergence of several variants of concern capable of escaping polyclonal antibody responses,5Hoffmann M. Arora P. Groß R. et al.SARS-CoV-2 variants B.1.351 and P.1 escape from neutralizing antibodies.Cell. 2021; 184: 2384-2393.e12Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (594) Google Scholar enhanced COVID-19 disease continues to be a threat to the immunosuppressed. Whether COVID-19-associated mortality risk influences long-term survival in HIV+ transplant recipients remains to be determined. However, we urge the transplant community to consider these factors when evaluating management strategies for their patients before transplantation. Heart Transplantation Survival Outcomes of HIV Positive and Negative RecipientsThe Annals of Thoracic SurgeryVol. 111Issue 5PreviewIn the era of antiretroviral therapy, HIV-positive patients have reduced mortality from HIV infection and increased morbidity from end-stage heart failure. The number of HIV-positive heart transplantation recipients remains scant. Long-term survival has not been rigorously studied. We compared survival outcomes of heart transplantation in HIV-positive recipients with those of HIV-negative recipients. Full-Text PDF" @default.
