Cancer patients get extra shield against COVID-19 in groundbreaking trial
NCT ID NCT04442048
Summary
This study tested whether a shot called IMM-101 could help prevent severe respiratory and COVID-19 infections in cancer patients. About 195 patients undergoing cancer treatment, who were at higher risk due to age or other health conditions, were randomly assigned to receive the shot or be observed. Researchers wanted to see if activating the immune system with IMM-101 could help the body fight off infections better and prevent serious illness.
