Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The primary endpoint is the antibody based immune response to vaccination<br /><br>against COVID-19 on day 28 after the second vaccination in patients receiving<br /><br>cancer treatment as compared to individuals without cancer. Participants will<br /><br>be classified as responders or non-responders. The definition of response is<br /><br>seroconversion defined as presence of SARS-CoV-2 spike S1-specific IgG<br /><br>antibodies in individuals without measurable anti-S antibodies at baseline.<br /><br>Participants who are seropositive at baseline will not be included in the<br /><br>analysis of the primary endpoint. The percentage of responders of each patient<br /><br>cohort will be compared with the percentage responders in the group without<br /><br>cancer.</p><br>
