New study tracks COVID vaccine durability in chronic illness patients
NCT ID NCT05313087
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study followed 360 adults and children with chronic respiratory and other medical conditions to see how their immune systems responded to COVID-19 vaccines over 18 months. Researchers measured antibody, T cell, and B cell levels before vaccination and every 3 months after. The goal was to understand how long vaccine protection lasts in people with ongoing health issues.
