We aimed to evaluate the rate of anti–SARS-CoV-2 IgG seropositivity and investigated factors associated with seropositivity after the second SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination in kidney transplant (KT) recipients. This retrospective study conducted between June 2021 and November 2021 included 106 KT recipients and 127 healthy controls who received the second dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine at least seven days before the measurement of antibody titers. The titers of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against the receptor-binding domain of SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein were determined. Seropositivity was defined as an anti–SARS-CoV-2 IgG level of ≥15 units/mL, which was considered as the presence of sufficient neutralizing antibodies. The median ages and the seroprevalence rates of the healthy controls and KT recipients were 68 and 56 years and 98% and 22%, respectively. Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age >53 years, rituximab use, mycophenolate mofetil use, and KT vintage <7 years were negatively associated with anti–SARS-CoV-2 IgG seropositivity in KT recipients. Humoral response after the second BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine was greatly hindered by immunosuppression therapy in KT recipients. Older age, rituximab use, mycophenolate mofetil use, and KT vintage may play key roles in seroconversion.
