Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) is a rare, but serious, complication of the ChAdOx1 nCOV-19 vaccine. In Australia, the diagnosis of VITT required the detection of antibodies against platelet factor 4 (PF4) in plasma using a PF4/polyanion ELISA. Half of the patients, fulfilling clinical criteria of VITT, tested positive in this ELISA and another third tested positive in platelet activation assays, highlighting limitations in the assays used for VITT. Utilizing a microfluidic device coated with endothelial cells, the Endo-chip, we measured the effects of serum and IgG from patients with clinical VITT on endothelial thromboinflammation. Our cohort comprised 40 patients (21 ELISA-positive and 19 ELISA-negative by PF4/polyanion ELISA), 12 vaccinated patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) without VITT, and 17 individuals who received the ChAdOx1 vaccine without adverse events (vax controls). Treatment with VITT serum, plasma, or IgG increased endothelial tissue factor (TF) expression and activity. Perfusion of blood from healthy donors, labelled with fluorescent antibodies against platelets, neutrophils and fibrin, through Endo-chips treated with VITT serum or IgG, induced a 2 to 3-fold increase in platelet, neutrophil and fibrin deposition. Thromboinflammation was enhanced with PF4 and reduced with an inhibitory antibody against TF. We conclude that endothelial activation contributes to thromboinflammation in patients with clinical features of VITT. The Endo-chip offers a platform for the study of endothelial responses in immune thrombosis.
