ABSTRACT
The management of persistent symptomatic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections in immunocompromised patients remains unclear. Here, we present the first case of successful antiviral therapy (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir and remdesivir) in combination with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) in a patient who had received CD20 depleting therapy for follicular lymphoma and experienced recurrent COVID-19 relapses. After the patient received IVIg treatment, the viral load decreased without recurrence. Subsequently, it was found that the anti-spike antibody titer in the administered immunoglobulin was high at 9528.0 binding antibody units/mL. Our case highlights the potential of combination therapy with selective IVIg and antiviral drugs for relapsed immunocompromised COVID-19 patients who have received CD20 depleting therapy.
