Cover Story: COVID-19 vaccines are of high importance in patients with hematologic malignancies (HM), yet the efficacy of two-dose vaccination is often insufficient in such patients following ongoing cancer treatment and B-cell depletion. COVID-19 prime-boost vaccines aim to increase serologic response rates and overcome waning vaccine responses. To date, little is known about the efficacy of COVID-19 prime-boost vaccines in patients with HM as well as the differences between serological responders and non-responders. Moreover, the optimal management of low- or non-responders to COVID-19 booster vaccines in daily practice remains undefined. This study analyzed the efficacy of COVID-19 prime-boost vaccines in 200 patients with HM, identified negative predictive factors, and thus provides a risk-adapted guidance for the management of weak and failed responses to COVID-19 prime-boost vaccination. View this paper
