About this study
In plain language
This study looks at whether CAR-T therapy, a cancer treatment, lowers protection from vaccines for measles, mumps, rubella, and other diseases. It is for adults with multiple myeloma or certain other blood cancers who are approved for CAR-T therapy.
This study evaluates immune responses after CAR-T therapy to find out if CAR-T therapy reduces the effectiveness of the vaccines (vaccine immunity) against diseases such as measles, mumps and rubella, among others in patients with multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- Be willing to sign a consent form before any study activities.
- Be age 18 or older when you give consent.
- Have a tissue or cell test confirming multiple myeloma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, or primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma. These are blood cancers.
- Any number of past cancer treatments is allowed.
- Have had vaccines against common diseases that vaccines can prevent.
- Have your doctor's approval for CAR-T therapy, with treatment to prepare for it planned within 90 days.
- Have your doctor's approval to get vaccinated again against pneumococcus, a bacterium that can cause pneumonia, or tetanus.
Who can't join
- Take or plan to take medicines that weaken the immune system and could make the study results hard to understand.
- Have an uncontrolled illness, such as an infection throughout the body, heart failure with symptoms, or unstable chest pain. Mental health or life situations may also rule you out if they make study steps unsafe or hard to follow.
Simplified for readability. The official criteria below are what the study team uses.
Official eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * \* Willingness to provide written informed consent before any study-specific procedures or activities are performed * Age ≥ 18 years of age, at the time of consent * Documented, histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma (MM), diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL),follicular lymphoma (FL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), or primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma (PMBL). All number of prior lines of therapy are allowed * History of prior vaccination against common VPD * Approved by managing physician for CAR-T therapy, with preparative conditioning planned within the next 90 days * Approved by managing physician for revaccination against Streptococcus pneumoniae or tetanus Exclusion Criteria: * \* Ongoing use of immunosuppressive agents or plans for immunosuppressive therapy that would interfere with interpretation of study endpoints * Uncontrolled, intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, systemic infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements or make the study procedures unadvisable
