What this Trial Is About

This research aims to understand how patients with cancer respond to COVID-19 vaccination by studying the levels of protective antibodies over time. The focus is on individuals with solid organ malignancies receiving various anti-cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, as well as those who have been disease-free for at least six months. Since cancer patients were excluded from initial vaccine trials, this study seeks to fill knowledge gaps about vaccine safety and effectiveness in this group. Participants include cancer patients who are either undergoing active treatment or are disease-free for six months or more. They are grouped based on their treatment type chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or disease-free status. The study involves monitoring antibody trends related to COVID-19 infection and vaccination at multiple time points over a 12-month period. During the study, researchers will collect blood samples to measure neutralizing and spike antibody levels every three months for up to one year. Participants will be followed to track their immune response depending on their cancer treatment and biological aging status. The study will also assess how antibody levels change over time and correlate with different treatments and patient characteristics. Safety and consent are carefully monitored throughout the trial.
