Do vaccines still work during lymphoma treatment? new study aims to find out
NCT ID NCT06070961
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tracks 56 follicular lymphoma patients to see how long their COVID-19 and other vaccine immunity lasts while they receive chemotherapy and maintenance therapy. Researchers will collect blood samples at several time points to measure immune responses. The goal is to understand if vaccines remain effective during treatment, which could help improve vaccination strategies for these patients.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could help doctors understand how well vaccines protect follicular lymphoma patients during treatment, guiding future vaccination schedules.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, observational study (56 participants) that only measures immune markers, not actual protection from infection. Results may not apply to all patients or treatments.
