アブストラクト | PURPOSE: Some case reports have suggested a possible association between COVID-19 vaccines and subacute thyroiditis (SAT), however, to our knowledge, no study has analyzed this possible relationship. This study aimed to analyze whether a disproportionate number of cases of SAT were reported in the EudraVigilance database for four COVID-19 vaccines (BNT162b2, mRNA-1273 ChAdOx1-S or Ad26.COV2.S). METHODS: A case/non-case study was conducted to assess the association between SAT and COVID-19 vaccines, calculating the reporting odds ratios (RORs) up to December 2, 2021. Cases were selected using the preferred term 'subacute thyroiditis'. First, cases involving COVID-19 vaccines were compared with those involving all other drugs. Secondly, the RORs for COVID-19 vaccines compared with other viral vaccines (overall and influenza vaccines only) were obtained. RESULTS: Until December 2, 2021, of 1,221,582 spontaneous cases of adverse reactions with the four vaccines, we found 162 SAT cases: BNT162b2 (n = 103), mRNA-1273 (n = 27), ChAdOx1-S (n = 31) and Ad26.COV2.S (n = 1). SAT cases were found to be reported more frequently in association with BNT162b2, mRNA-1273, and ChAdOx1-S vaccines than with other drugs. Moreover, we found a signal of disproportionate reporting for SAT with BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 vaccines comparing with other viral vaccines (BNT162b2 ROR 3.58, 95% CI 1.92-6.66; mRNA-1273 ROR 3.44, 95% CI 1.71-6.94). However, this association was absent when these COVID-19 vaccines were compared with influenza vaccines. CONCLUSIONS: In EudraVigilance, SAT is relatively more frequently reported in association with mRNA COVID-19 vaccines than with other viral vaccines. Well designed observational studies are needed to confirm these results. |
