Vaccine Responses in Patient With Multiple Myeloma and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma After CAR-T Treatment

Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess positive VPD antibody (Ab) titers prior to and at 6 months after CAR-T therapy to evaluate the impact of CAR-T on immune responses in patients undergoing CAR-T therapy.

II. To assess the change in Ab titer to S. pneumoniae and tetanus at 6 months and 1 year post-vaccination and evaluate if titer increases are correlated to post-vaccination CD4+ count and IgG level.

OUTLINE: This is an observational study.

Patients may receive up to 3 doses of pneumococcal and/or tetanus vaccine per institutional policy of revaccination. Patients undergo blood sample collection and have medical records reviewed throughout the study.
