RECRUITING

Study of Immune Responses to Influenza Vaccination

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Better understanding of the immune responses to influenza vaccination is needed in order to understand situations of poor vaccine response. Adults will receive influenza vaccination and then have peripheral blood drawn at pre-defined intervals in order to study the lymphocyte responses.
