Abstract
Objective
To assess possible adverse effects on breastfed infants of mothers receiving monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) during pregnancy and/or lactation.
Methods
We identified 23 patients from the German Multiple Sclerosis and Pregnancy Registry (DMSKW) who received MAbs (17 natalizumab and 6 anti-CD20) during lactation. Thirteen were already exposed to natalizumab during the third trimester of pregnancy, and 1 received ocrelizumab during pregnancy. Data were obtained from standardized, telephone-administered questionnaires completed by the mother during pregnancy and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postpartum. Natalizumab concentration in mother’s milk was analyzed in 3 patients and natalizumab serum concentration in 2 of these patients and their breastfed infants.
Results
We did not observe a negative impact on infant health and development attributable to breast milk exposure after a median follow-up of 1 year. Infants exposed to natalizumab during the third trimester had a lower birth weight and more hospitalizations in the first year of life. The concentration of natalizumab in breast milk and serum of infants was low; B cells normal in infants breastfed under anti-CD20.
Conclusion
More data on the effect of Mab exposure during pregnancy are needed. Otherwise, our data suggest that treatment with natalizumab, ocrelizumab, or rituximab during lactation might be safe for breastfed infants.
Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) are considered compatible with lactation by gastroenterologists and rheumatologists,1,2 yet breastfeeding under MAb treatment is generally not recommended by neurologists. Two classes of MAbs, natalizumab (NTZ) and CD20-depleting agents, rituximab (RTX) and ocrelizumab (OCR), are highly effective therapy options for women at a high risk of pregnancy-related MS relapses with apparently undetectable or minimal transfer into breast milk in 7 NTZ-exposed and 10 RTX-exposed breast milk samples.3–6 Whether these minimally detectable breast milk levels pose any risk to the infants is unknown, leading many experts to be exceedingly cautious. This is potentially problematic as withholding breastfeeding may deprive the mother and child of multiple important health benefits.7 Herein, we present a cohort of 23 women with MS or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) from the German Multiple Sclerosis and Pregnancy Registry (DMSKW) who breastfed under MAbs with follow-up of their offspring.
Methods
The DMSKW is a prospective nationwide cohort study for pregnant women with MS or NMOSD. Data are collected by a standardized telephone-administered questionnaire at regular intervals during pregnancy and postpartum (pp).8 Inclusion criteria for these analyses were live birth and breastfeeding while on MAb treatment through September 2019. Breastfeeding under MAb was defined as breastfeeding for at least 1 day after the first pp MAb infusion. If the last MAb infusion during pregnancy was administered within 100 days of delivery for NTZ and 130 days for OCR (<5 half-lives), infants were considered exposed during breastfeeding from the first day of life. The following outcomes were collected: hospitalization with any overnight admission, any infection requiring antibiotic treatment or hospitalization during the first year of life. For the percentages of infants with ≥12 months of follow-up at least hospitalized or treated with antibiotics once, we included in the numerator the event in any infant (irrespective of the length of follow-up) but in the denominator, only infants with ≥12 months of follow-up.
Weight was compared with age- and sex-specific values obtained from the general German pediatric population, excluding preterm births (<completed 37 weeks of gestation [gw]).9 Developmental delay was defined as any delay reported by the mother during the interview and confirmed by the treating pediatrician. MS relapses were defined using the current McDonald criteria.10 Anemia and thrombocytopenia were classified as follows: “no” if the proportion of hemoglobin/thrombocytes was >100%/>99% of the laboratory reference value, respectively, “mild” between 100 and 91%/>50%, “moderate” between 91 and 64%/>30%, and “severe” if it was <64%/<30%.
NTZ concentrations in serum and breast milk were determined as described previously by a highly sensitive cross-linking assay11,12 at Sanquin Diagnostic Services (Amsterdam, the Netherlands).
The relative infant dose (RID)13 was calculated by dividing the absolute infant dose by the maternal dose. For calculation of the absolute infant dose, the respective maximum NTZ concentration in milk and an estimated daily milk intake of 150 mL/kg were used.

Results
Of 2,120 pregnancies, we identified 23 women who breastfed under MAbs: 17 under NTZ, 3 RTX, 2 OCR, and 1 received RTX and OCR. The characteristics of the cohort are shown in table 1; the MAb exposure with relevant outcomes are shown in tables 2 and 3 (stratified according to exposure during the third trimester of pregnancy and breastfeeding and to exposure only during breastfeeding). Most women continued NTZ throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding (n = 13, 76%). Only 1 woman received OCR during pregnancy (2nd trimester) following 2 relapses; she was treated with 3 cycles of alemtuzumab before pregnancy. Three of 4 (17%) women with relapses during pregnancy were treated with alemtuzumab, fingolimod, or NTZ before but not during pregnancy, and 1 woman continued glatiramer acetate during pregnancy. The first NTZ infusion postpartum was administered after a median of 14 days (range 1–124 days) after the date of delivery and the first RTX infusion after a median of 8 days (range 4–26 days). OCR patients started after 20 and 194 days, and the woman breastfeeding under RTX and OCR received her infusions after 55 and 333 days postpartum, respectively. The 4 women with postpartum relapses had either not been treated with MAbs before (n = 2) or had stopped NTZ during the 1st trimester (n = 2). All pregnancy and postpartum relapses were treated with IV corticosteroids.
Table 1.
Pregnancy outcomes
Four singleton infants (17%) were born preterm. Two exposed to NTZ through pregnancy were delivered at 36 gw (incompetent cervix) and 37 gw (planned cesarean section because of elevated liver enzymes without other signs for HELLP syndrome (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count) (table 2). One infant was delivered in 37 gw due to failure to thrive since 32 gw due to placental insufficiency. The mother (fingolimod before pregnancy) had a severe relapse during pregnancy that required treatment with IV corticosteroids and plasma exchange. Another infant was delivered at 30 gw following premature rupture of membranes from incompetent cervix. The mother had received RTX for 4 years with the last dose 3 months before pregnancy with recurrent urinary tract infections and hypogammaglobulinemia (465 mg/dL) before and during pregnancy and received IV immunoglobulins during pregnancy (table 3).
Table 2.
Table 3.
Infant outcomes
Median birth weight in term infants was 3,315 g (range 2,520–3,690 g) in girls and 3,260 g (range 2,660–3,810 g) in boys but lower in newborns exposed to NTZ in the last trimester of pregnancy (table 4). Physical growth was normal at all well-baby visits during exposed breastfeeding for almost all full-term infants. Only 2 male infants fell below the 3rd percentile with 1 body measurement (birth weight or head circumference at well-baby visits at 1 or 3–4 months of age, respectively), but caught up during exposed breastfeeding. One was exposed to NTZ during the 3rd trimester, and the second only during breastfeeding. In our whole cohort, at least 1 antibiotic treatment was given in 30% of boys and 15% of girls. In those infants with at least 12 months of follow-up (n = 6 and n = 9), 3 boys (50%) and 2 girls (22%) received at least 1 antibiotic treatment (expected in the general German population, males: 27% and females: 25%).14 So far, 3 (30%) boys and 4 (31%) girls in our cohort have been hospitalized at least once within the first year of life (range of follow-up time 2.8–49.0 months). Considering only those with a follow-up of ≥12 months, 3 boys (50%) and 4 (44%) girls were hospitalized. This compares with an expected percentage of 18.7% in males and 14.9% in females in Germany.15 Four hospitalizations occurred immediately after birth for the following reasons: 2 prematurity and in 2 complications after birth including neonatal infection in both. In 2 cases, hospitalization was a precautionary measure: cough in one and suspicion of gastroenteritis without fever and diarrhea without therapy in the second (table 2). All relevant infections of infants exposed during the third trimester of pregnancy entailed hospitalization (table 2). More infants with third-trimester NTZ exposure were hospitalized compared with unexposed children. Table 4 stratifies our cohort into observed vs expected outcomes according to MAb exposure during the third trimester of pregnancy and during breastfeeding only, in comparison to German reference populations. There was 1 child with a major congenital malformation (ventricular septal defect).
Table 4.
Chronic diseases included pediatric asthma and hazelnut allergy (n = 1 each). One infant (NTZ throughout pregnancy) suffers from slight generalized muscular hypotonia due to perinatal asphyxia, but at the age of 6 months his medical examination was satisfactory. No infants had developmental delays.
Hematologic abnormalities
We received results of complete blood counts (CBCs) during breastfeeding in 7 (41%) (at birth in 12 [71%]) infants breastfed under NTZ, 2 of whom were exposed only through breast milk (tables 2 and 3). Both of these infants had normal CBCs. In contrast, only 1 (20%) of the infants exposed to NTZ throughout pregnancy and through breast milk had continuously normal CBCs, 2 developed mild or moderate hematologic anomalies during breastfeeding, and in total, 5 (50%) had a mild or moderate anemia and/or mild thrombocytopenia at birth.
Five (83%) infants exposed to B cell–depleting MAbs during breastfeeding had normal B cells (above the lower limit of normal 600/μL). In 2 infants (OCR in the 2nd trimester and RTX 16 months before the date of delivery) the B-cell count was decreased at birth (CD19: 339/μL and 218/μL, respectively) but normalized during exposed breastfeeding at 79 and 93 days postpartum, respectively.
Maternal, infant, and breast milk NTZ levels
Three mothers provided milk samples at different time points during NTZ-exposed breastfeeding; 2 also provided maternal and infant blood samples to analyze NTZ concentrations in both mothers and babies (figure). Although trace amounts of NTZ were detectable in breast milk (<1% of maternal serum values; maximum RID: 0.5%), the MAb was not detectable in the infants' sera after pp infusion.
Discussion
In our small prospective cohort of women with MS and NMOSD breastfeeding under MAbs, we found no signal of harmful clinical or biological effects attributable to breast milk exposure. The infants showed normal growth and no negative effect on development. We also observed that infants who were exposed to NTZ during the third trimester of pregnancy had a lower birth weight (both sexes) and were hospitalized more often during the first year of life (both sexes).
The number of infants with at least 1 antibiotic treatment within the first year of life in the total cohort was consistent with expected national rates,14 only noticeably elevated in boys with ≥12 months of follow-up. Percentages of infants hospitalized at least once in the total cohort were higher than expected due to the high numbers in third-trimester NTZ-exposed children. As the sample size for the different groups was small and the outcomes rare, it is unclear whether this is a chance finding or if it is related to the treatment during pregnancy, especially because distribution of percentages differed between sex and follow-up period.
We did find an overall lower than expected median birth weight (around 270 g in boys and 75 g in girls), albeit not very low, in comparison to the general German population.9 This effect was mainly driven by infants exposed to NTZ during the third trimester of pregnancy, which is in line with previous findings after 3rd-trimester NTZ exposure.16
We also found a slightly higher than expected number of preterm births (observed: 17%, expected: 10%)17,18 in the whole cohort, perhaps reflecting the underlying more active MS or drug exposure. Hematologic abnormalities, particularly in those with continuous in utero exposure to NTZ, are well documented and therefore not unexpected.16,19 It is very reassuring that these laboratory abnormalities resolved, and the infants grew and developed normally despite continued low-level MAb exposure through breast milk.
We detected very low levels of NTZ in breast milk similar to previous reports.3,4,20 A tool to assess the safety of a certain drug exposure via breast milk is the RID.13 It is calculated by dividing the absolute infant dose (concentration in breast milk multiplied by daily milk intake [150 mL/kg]) by the maternal dose. Drugs with RIDs <10% are considered probably safe for a healthy child.21 When calculated with the respective maximum concentration in breast milk, maximum RID in our analyses was 0.5%, i.e., far below the theoretically accepted cutoff of 10%. We did not detect accumulation of NTZ in breast milk after up to 4 infusions in contrast to others who found a steady accumulation of NTZ after the 2nd infusion (n = 1) and higher levels of NTZ after each additional infusion up to the 2nd (n = 2) or up to the 4th administration (n = 1). These dissimilarities are likely due to well-described interindividual variability in natalizumab levels,4,22 particularly because both studies are limited by very small sample sizes. Even with an increasing amount of the MAb in breast milk, the possibility of systemic absorption in the infant via neonatal Fc receptor seems not to be relevant in humans,23 but larger case series are needed to elucidate exact pharmacokinetics.
The decreased B-cell count at birth in the infant whose mother received the last RTX infusion 16 months before the date of delivery cannot be caused by the drug. According to the half-life of RTX of approximately 30 days, the infant could not have been exposed to the drug in utero. An error in analysis is more likely, especially as the B-cell count normalized without any intervention and no chronic disease related to B-cell deficiency was reported.
The low levels of transfer into breast milk are not surprising, as MAbs are large molecules and transfer is limited by molecular weight.13 Minimal transfer into breast milk is known for RTX5,6 and unknown but likely for OCR. In published cases of breastfeeding under RTX5,6 (n = 5) and OCR24 (n = 1), no serious adverse effects were reported.
Some have argued that even isolated breast milk exposure to MAbs could have systemic effects in the infant following transluminal absorption via the neonatal Fc receptor, FcRn. Thus, women who need these treatments are often counseled not to breastfeed. This is a theoretically weak argument, as oral absorption of IgG is exceedingly low in human neonates23 and the breast milk concentrations of MAbs are already exceedingly low. There is only 1 prior published report of detectable infant serum Mab levels resulting solely from breast milk exposure (infliximab, ∼2% of maternal serum concentration).25 In most infants, levels were undetectable.25,26 Another report of detectable infant serum levels following infliximab or adalimumab exposure was more likely attributable to late pregnancy exposures than breast milk.27 We found that NTZ serum concentrations were undetectable in 2 infants during exposed breastfeeding. In 1 infant, a very low level of NTZ was detected immediately after birth following exposure throughout pregnancy, which resolved despite continued breast milk exposure. Although the number of analyzed samples is very small, our findings seem to further refute the theory of a substantial transfer of MAbs from breast milk via FcRn, which is in line with recommendations of other societies (rheumatology and gastroenterology) who already consider breastfeeding under MAbs to be safe for the infant.1,2 Although more studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-ups are needed to evaluate the safety of the individual MAbs, safety will likely be comparable between them and transferable to neurology.
The overlap of MAb exposure during pregnancy and lactation in many infants of our cohort precludes definite conclusions about the safety of exposure through breast milk alone. In combination with the small sample size, this is a limitation of our study. Exposure to MAbs, especially during late pregnancy, could partly confound our results. It can be associated with hematologic abnormalities,16 and the infection risk for these neonates is largely unknown. Therefore, more information on MAb exposure, especially NTZ, during the 3rd trimester of pregnancy and subsequent follow-up of the infants is necessary. To disentangle the effect of late pregnancy exposure, larger cohorts are needed, with infants exclusively being exposed to MAbs during lactation.
Taken together with other studies, our results underscore the exceedingly low probability of harmful effects of MAbs solely through breast milk.13 Women with MS can be advised that although available data are few, these small data sets do not appear to show meaningful adverse effects for infants exposed to breast milk after MAb treatment of the mother. Infants exposed to MAbs during pregnancy should continue to be monitored carefully, and future studies with larger sample sizes should consider the duration of exposed breastfeeding and infants' age at the time of exposure.
