<p>Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) have a diminished response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination compared with immunocompetent individuals. Deeper understanding of antibody responses in KTRs following third-dose vaccination would enable identification of those who remain unprotected against Omicron.</p> <p>Methods: <br>We profiled antibody responses in KTRs pre- and at 1 and 3 mo post-third-dose SARS-CoV-2 mRNA-based vaccine. Binding antibody levels were determined by ELISA. Neutralization against wild type, Beta, Delta, and Omicron (BA.1) variants was determined using a SARS-CoV-2 spike-pseudotyped lentivirus assay.</p> <p>Results: <br>Forty-four KTRs were analyzed at 1 and 3 mo (n = 26) post-third dose. At 1 mo, the proportion of participants with a robust antibody response had increased significantly from baseline, but Omicron-specific neutralizing antibodies were detected in just 45% of KTRs. Median binding antibody levels declined at 3 mo, but the proportion of KTRs with a robust antibody response was unchanged; 38.5% KTRs maintained Omicron-specific neutralization at 3 mo. No clinical variables were significantly associated with Omicron-neutralizing antibodies, but antireceptor binding domain titers appeared to identify those with Omicron-specific neutralizing capacity.</p> <p>Conclusions: <br>Over 50% of KTRs lack Omicron-specific neutralization capacity 1 mo post-third mRNA-vaccine dose. Antibody levels of responders were well preserved at 3 mo. Anti receptor binding domain antibody titers may identify patients with a detectable Omicron-neutralizing antibody response.</p>
