Patients with lymphoid malignancies have impaired humoral immunity caused by the disease itself and its treatment, placing them at risk for severe coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) and reduced response to vaccination. However, data for COVID-19 vaccine responses in patients with mature T cell and NK-cell neoplasms are very limited. In this study of 19 patients with mature T/NK-cell neoplasms, anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike antibodies were measured at 3 months, 6 months, and 9 months after the second mRNA-based vaccination. At the time of the second and third vaccinations, 31.6% and 15.4% of the patients were receiving active treatment. All patients received the primary vaccine dose and the third vaccination rate was 68.4%. In patients with mature T/NK-cell neoplasms, both seroconversion rate (p < 0.01) and antibody titers (p < 0.01) after the second vaccination were significantly lower than those in healthy controls (HC). In individuals who received the booster dose, patients had significantly lower antibody titers than those in HC (p < 0.01); however, the seroconversion rate in patients was 100%, which was the same as that in HC. The booster vaccine resulted in a significant increase of antibodies in elderly patients who had shown a response that was inferior to that in younger patients after two doses of vaccination. Since higher antibody titers and higher seroconversion rate reduced the incidence of infection and mortality, vaccination more than three times may have the advantage for patients with mature T/NK-cell neoplasms, especially in elderly patients.
