Standard vs High-Dose Trivalent Inactivated Flu Vaccine in Adult Hematopoetic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) Recipients
Completed · Phase 1
Conditions studied: Adult Stem Cell Hematopoetic Transplant
In brief
Hypothesis 1: The safety profile in adult allogeneic stem cell hematopoietic transplant (SCT) recipients after high dose (HD) trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV) will not be significantly different from adult stem cell transplant recipients receiving standard dose (SD) TIV. * Specific Aim 1: To compare safety profile of high dose trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine to standard dose trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine in adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. Hypothesis 2: Adult stem cell transplant recipients who received the higher dose trivalent influenza vaccine will have a greater frequency of (at least a 4-fold) rise in antibody titers to influenza antigens compared to those who receive standard dose trivalent influenza vaccine. * Specific Aim 2: To compare humoral immune responses of adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients influenza virus antigens included in trivalent influenza vaccine after high dose or standard dose trivalent influenza vaccine.

You may qualify if…
- Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients who are >6 post-transplant
- greater than or equal to 18 years of age
