Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine Does Not Induce Humoral Response When Administrated Within the Six Months After CD19 CAR T-Cell Therapy.

CD19 targeted chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cell therapy (CAR-T) leads to B cell aplasia and low serum immunoglobulin levels. Long-lived CD19-negative plasma cells may persist through the therapy and generate antibodies. There is a paucity of data describing how CAR-T impacts the persistence of antibodies against vaccine-related antigens and the degree to which CAR-T recipients may respond to vaccines.
