BackgroundImmune changes that occur during pregnancy may place pregnant women at an increased risk for severe disease following viral infections like SARS-CoV-2. Whether these immunologic changes modify the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy is not well understood.ObjectiveThis study aimed to compare the humoral immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant and nonpregnant women. The immune response following vaccination for SARS-CoV-2 was also explored.Study designIn this cohort study, 24 serum samples from 20 patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 during pregnancy were matched by number of days after a positive test with 46 samples from 40 nonpregnant women of reproductive age. Samples from 9 patients who were vaccinated during pregnancy were also examined. Immunoglobulin G and immunoglobulin M levels were measured. Trends in the log antibody levels over time and mean antibody levels were assessed using generalized estimating equations.ResultsThe median number of days from first positive test to sampling was 6.5 in the pregnant group (range, 3-97) and 6.0 among nonpregnant participants (range, 2-97). No significant differences in demographic or sampling characteristics were noted between the groups. No differences in immunoglobulin G or immunoglobulin M levels over time or mean antibody levels were noted among pregnant and nonpregnant participants following SARS-CoV-2 infection for any of the SARS-CoV-2 antigen targets examined (spike, spike receptor-binding domain, spike N-terminal domain, and nucleocapsid). Participants who were vaccinated during pregnancy had higher immunoglobulin G levels than pregnant patients who tested positive for all SARS-CoV-2 targets except nucleocapsid antibodies (all P<.001) and had lower immunoglobulin M spike (P<.05) and receptor-binding domain (P<.01) antibody levels.ConclusionThis study suggests that the humoral response following SARS-CoV-2 infection does not seem to differ between pregnant women and their nonpregnant counterparts. These findings should reassure patients and healthcare providers that pregnant patients seem to mount a nondifferential immune response to SARS-CoV-2
