Interventional
Study Design
Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
positive humoral response (>10 AU/mL of SARS-CoV-2 IgG) of COVID19 mRNA vaccine.<br>- serum assay is performed a month after vaccination schedule is completed[at 1 month after final booster dose (3 versus 4 doses) ]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Comparison of humoral and cellular response to mRNA-1273, Moderna and BNT162b2, Pfizer/BioNTech for booster vaccine.<br>Comparison of adverse events between groups - assessed using a questionnaire designed for the stud; including occurrence of rejection (laboratory data assessment), de novo DSA formation, renal function evolvement. [at 1 month after each booster dose (3 resp. 4 doses) ];Comparison of the efficacy of 3 versus 4 doses of COVID19 mRNA vaccine - evaluated using cellular immunity assessment. (EliSPOT assay - blood samples analysis)[at 1 month after final booster dose (3 versus 4 doses) ];Incidence of COVID-19. (data-linkage to medical records)[At 3 months after final booster dose];Safety of booster vaccination and evaluation of adverse events (assessed using a questionnaire designed for the study) including occurrence of rejection (laboratory data assessment), de novo DSA formation, renal function evolvement. [at 1 month after each booster dose (3 resp. 4 doses) ]
