About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of COVID-19 Vaccine in Patients After Allogeneic Hamatopoietic Cell Transplantation, CAR-T Therapy and With Primary Immune Deficiency - a Post Marketing Prospective Cohort Study

The corona pandemic is a continuing global challenge due to Corona Virus 2019 (COVID-19).

The purpose of the study is to confirm the accepted hypothesis from the recommendations of The European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, that the vaccine for COVID-19 is safe and has good efficacy in immunocompromised patients after a bone marrow transplant from a donor / cellular therapy.

Read the detailed description

The study population will be allogeneic bone marrow transplant patients and those who have received CART therapy - immunocompromised patients who are vaccinated with COVID-19 in a commercial preparation, regardless of the study.

The following procedures are routinely performed before receiving the vaccine in the bone marrow transplant unit -

  1. Blood count and lymphocyte subgroup counts before vaccination (up to 48 hours before vaccination).
  2. Evaluation of GVHD activity and accompanying toxicity.
  3. Receipt of a letter confirming the vaccination to the HMO.
  4. One-week follow-up after vaccination including blood count, complete chemistry, GVHD evaluation, and review of adverse reactions that may be vaccine-related.
  5. Referral for a second dose of the vaccine.
  6. One week follow-up after vaccination including blood count, complete chemistry, GVHD evaluation, review of side effects that may be vaccine related.

The following procedures are performed only as part of the study -

  1. Serology test (IgG AntiS) two weeks after the second dose of the vaccine to test the effectiveness of the vaccine. Cell separation two weeks after the second vaccination and execution -
  2. ELISpot test to test for the release of interferon gamma in response to the stimulation of cells separated with the SARS-COV-2 virus peptides (stimulation with S peptides to evaluate vaccine response, and stimulation with M peptides as a control).

All data collected in the study will be typed into Excel and analyzed using SPSS version 25.0. Continuous data will be described using averages and standard deviations, and categorical data will be described using prevalence and percentages.

The distribution of the continuous variables will be presented using an outline graph and will be examined using the Kolmogorov Smirnov test.

An attempt will be made to perform subgroup analysis (depending on the frequency of the groups in the sample) for the patient group:

Patients after bone marrow transplantation with acute GVHD Patients after bone marrow transplantation with chronic GVHD Patients after bone marrow transplantation without immunosuppressive therapy Patients after Cell Therapy (CART) Patients lack primary immunization

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of side effects in patients

    Incidence of side effects in patients post allogeneic bone marrow transplantation after COVID-19 vaccination

    Measured: 10 weeks counting since first vaccination is initiated.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Prevalence of severe adverse reactions

    1. Prevalence of severe adverse reactions (grade 3-4) in patients post allogeneic bone marrow transplantation after vaccination with COVID-19
    2. Percentage of patients with SEROCONVERSION to COVID-19 (IgG Anti S)
    3. Exacerbation rates in GVHD - Acute GVHD - Exacerbation of GVHD in at least one organ by at least one grade without continued improvement of GVHD in the other affected organs. Chronic GVHD - Exacerbation of GVHD in each of the organs involved.
    4. Infection with COVID19, according to a PCR test from a nasopharyngeal sample

    Measured: 10 weeks counting since first vaccination is initiated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Allogenic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant and CAR-T Therapy, run by Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ron Ram, Prof. (972-3-6973782 ext. 3782, ronr@tlvmc.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of side effects in patients (time frame: 10 weeks counting since first vaccination is initiated.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Jan 2021.
