NCT03467074

Brief Summary

The following observational study will investigate whether the vaccine response (antibodies, T and B cells) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation is influenced by genetic polymorphisms in the interferon lambda signal.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) in blood before vaccination

    Before vaccination, antibody titers for each influenza virus contained in the vaccine (Influenza A pH1N1, Influenza A H3N2 and Influenza B) are determined from the serum by means of a hemagglutination inhibition assay (HIA titer)

    Change from baseline PBMCs at day 60

  • Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) in blood after vaccination

    after vaccination, antibody titers for each influenza virus contained in the vaccine (Influenza A pH1N1, Influenza A H3N2 and Influenza B) are determined from the serum by means of a hemagglutination inhibition assay (HIA titer)

    Change from baseline PBMCs at day 60

Interventions

Regardless of the study enrollment, a two-time influenza vaccination at the start of the flu season is recommended every 4 weeks for all patients after stem cell transplantation. The vaccine is a trivalent inactivated non-adjuvanted influenza virus vaccine containing two influenza A viruses: pandemic H1N1, and H3N2, and an influenza B virus
