简要总结
RATIONALE: Flu vaccine may help the body build an immune response and decrease the occurrence of flu in children who are receiving chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
PURPOSE: Clinical trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in preventing flu in children who have acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the immune response, in terms of the formation of protective antibody titers to influenza, in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with split-virus trivalent influenza vaccine.
- Correlate the formation of protective antibody titers following immunization with the absolute neutrophil counts and absolute lymphocyte counts in these patients at the time of vaccination.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to current treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (consolidation chemotherapy vs maintenance chemotherapy vs off therapy for the past 6 months).
Patients receive split-virus trivalent influenza vaccine intramuscularly once or twice at 4 weeks apart for 2 doses.
Patients are followed at week 5. Patients receiving 2 doses of vaccine are also followed at week 9.
