Аннотация

Учитывая недостаточное количество данных по течению COVID-19 у иммунокомпрометированных детей на территории Российской Федерации, в ФГБУ «НМИЦ ДГОИ им. Дмитрия Рогачева» Минздрава России (Центр) было проведено исследование, посвященное изучению особенностей клиники, факторов риска и исходов новой коронавирусной инфекции у детей с онкогематологическими заболеваниями. В ретроспективно-проспективное, нерандомизированное и неинтервенционное исследование были включены дети до 18 лет с онкологическими, онкогематологическими заболеваниями, а также с первичными иммунодефицитными синдромами (ПИДС), проходившие лечение в Центре с апреля 2020 г. по октябрь 2021 г. Данное исследование одобрено независимым этическим комитетом и утверждено решением ученого совета НМИЦ ДГОИ им. Дмитрия Рогачева. Инфекция COVID-19 была установлена методом полимеразной цепной реакции и классифицирована на бессимптомную, легкую, среднетяжелую, тяжелую и крайне тяжелую формы. В исследование включены 89 пациентов с медианой возраста 9,7 года и практически равным соотношением мальчиков и девочек (1,1:1). Преимущественно инфицирование пациентов происходило в семейном кластере (74%). Основными заболеваниями были гемобластозы (43,8%), солидные опухоли (33,7%), ПИДС (14,6%). Наиболее частыми клиническими проявлениями были лихорадка (29%) и респираторная симптоматика (47%). В 79% случаев новая коронавирусная инфекция протекала бессимптомно или в легкой форме, тогда как в 21% в среднетяжелой (16%) и тяжелой (5%) формах. Факторами, коррелирующими с развитием тяжелых форм заболевания, были лимфопения (р < 0,001) и проведение трансплантации гемопоэтических стволовых клеток (ТГСК) (р = 0,002). Излечение от новой коронавирусной инфекции отмечалось у 84% пациентов, 16% больных умерли, однако к смерти непосредственно от COVID-19 было отнесено 5,5% случаев. Высокий уровень смертности отмечался у пациентов со среднетяжелым/тяжелым течением COVID-19 (47% против 7%, р < 0,001), прогрессией/рецидивом основного заболевания (36,3% против 6%, р = 0,02), у получавших специфическую терапию в течение года до инфицирования SARS-CoV-2 (21% против 0%, р = 0,02), у реципиентов ТГСК (31,6% против 12,1%, р = 0,02), при сочетанном инфекционном процессе (33% против 9,2%, р < 0,01). Преимущественно COVID-19 у иммунокомпрометированных детей протекает в бессимптомной или легкой формах. Факторами, ассоциированными с тяжелым течением и неблагоприятным прогнозом, явились среднетяжелое и тяжелое течение COVID-19, рецидив/прогрессия основного заболевания, проведение специфической терапии, в первую очередь ТГСК, в течение года до инфицирования SARS-CoV-2, сочетанный инфекционный процесс и лимфопения. Полученные в исследовании данные могут быть полезны при принятии решения о тактике ведения пациентов.

Abstract

Data on clinical manifestations of COVID-19 in immunocompromised patients in Russia is lacking, which prompted us to conduct a study to investigate clinical manifestations, risk factors, and outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children with oncological and hematological diseases treated at the D. Rogachev NMRCPHOI (Center). In this retrospective-prospective, nonrandomized, non-interventional study we enrolled children under 18 years with cancer, hematologic malignancies, and primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) who underwent treatment at the Center from April 2020 to October 2021. COVID-19 cases were confirmed by polymerase chain reaction testing and classified as asymptomatic, mild, moderate, severe and critical. The study was approved by the Independent Ethics Committee and the Scientific Council of the Center. The study included 89 patients with a median age of 9.7 years and almost equal gender distribution (the male-to-female ratio was 1.1:1). Most patients (74%) were infected in a family claster. The main underlying diseases were: hemoblastoses (43.8%), solid tumors (33.7%), PIDs (14.6%). The most common clinical symptoms were fever (29%) and respiratory symptoms (47%). In 79% of cases, patients were asymptomatic or had mild symptoms; 21% of patients had moderate and severe disease (16% and 5%, accordingly). Risk factors associated with severe COVID-19 included lymphopenia (p < 0.001) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) (p = 0.002). Full recovery was documented in 84% of the patients, 16% died, however COVID-attributed mortality was 5.5%. The highest mortality was in patients with moderate/severe COVID-19 (47% vs 7%, p < 0.001), in those with progression/ relapse of the underlying disease (36.3% vs 6%, p = 0.02), in children who had received specific therapy within a year before the SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis (21% vs 0%, p = 0.02), among HSCT recipients (31.6% vs 12.1%, p = 0.02), and patients with concomitant infections (33% vs 9.2%, p < 0.01). Factors associated with poor prognosis were moderate or severe COVID-19, relapse/ progression of the underlying disease, specific treatment (HSCT in particular) within 1 year before the SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis, concomitant infections, and lymphopenia. Data obtained in this study can help physicians with management decisions at this population of patients.
