Influenza A/H1N1/2009-adjuvanted Vaccine in Renal Disease Patients

February 16, 2011 updated by: Erasme University Hospital

Safety and Efficacy of Influenza A/H1N1/2009-adjuvanted Vaccine in Renal Transplant and Dialyzed Patients: a Prospective Cohort Study.

In 2009, the pandemic influenza A/H1N1 accounted for worldwide recommendations about vaccination. There is no data concerning the immunogenicity nor the security of the adjuvanted-A/H1N1 vaccine in renal disease patients. The aim of this study is to observe the effects of this vaccine on transplanted and hemodialyzed patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The serologic responses to the Pandemrix vaccine will assess the efficacy, with the determination of the seroconversion rate among the patients.

The anti-HLA and anti-MICA antibodies will be determined to assess the safety among the renal transplanted patients.
