IPOPI ESID Statement IPOPI – ESID Joint Statement The use of monoclonal antibody treatment for patients with PID in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic 11 November 2021 The role of monoclonal antibody (mAb or moAb) therapies in the treatment of COVID-19 in primary immunodeficiency (PID) patients is currently being discussed by the PID expert and patient community. Monoclonal antibodies have been used successfully to treat patients infected by SARS-CoV-2, including patients with PID, in specific circumstances. This joint statement outlines some key recommendations based on current clinical experience. Let us first bear in mind… It is helpful to recall that the risk level for most patients with PID of developing severe symptoms of COVID[1]19 is comparable to that of the general population, with only a few very rare PIDs being effectively […]

ESID COVID-19 Statement, March 2022
Since the start of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, there has been rapid progress with understanding disease, clinical phenotypes and biology, improving treatment and implementing vaccination trials. Data is accumulating about the impact of COVID-19 for patients with Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI). The purpose of this statement is to summarise our state of knowledge and set out ESID’s current guidance for professionals in the IEI community in Europe. We will update this statement as evidence emerges. Read the full statement here Last update: March, 2022. What do we know about COVID-19 in IEI? There have been relatively few IEI patients reported with severe COVID-19 either in the literature or in the multiple studies carried out to date (Meyts et al JACI2021 Feb;147(2):520-53; Shields et al., J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2021 […]
