Exploration of Immune Response to Early PCV13 Vaccination in Conjunction With Autologous Transplant (PCV13)

Exploration of Immune Response to Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV13) Administered Before and Early After Autologous Peripheral Stem Cell Transplant (Auto-PSCT) in Patients With Multiple Myeloma

There is no study hypothesis. The purpose of this study is to see if the Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13), when administered before and early after an autologous peripheral stem cell transplant will induce an immune response.

Detailed Description

This is a pilot study to determine the safety of PCV13 administered to patients with myeloma before and at +7-10 days and +21-24 days after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant; and,to quantify the immune response induced by PCV13 vaccination in patients with myeloma when administered before and early after autologous PSCT.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Immune Response
Time Frame: 30 Days Post Vaccine
Positive response per test category. Post-vaccination result higher than pre-vaccination values for each test category criteria. Additional details are reported under Secondary Outcome Measures.
30 Days Post Vaccine

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
CD4+CTV-IFN-gamma+, Best Response Against Vaccine (CRM 197)
Time Frame: 30 Days Post Vaccine
Best CD4+ response against CRM197 at day +30 after transplant, utilizing flow cytometry for interferon-γ (IFN-gamma). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stained with cell trace violet (CTV) then incubated with CRM197 or vehicle control. Cells were then harvested and stained for flow cytometry.
30 Days Post Vaccine
CD8+CTV-IFN-gamma+, Best Response Against Vaccine (CRM 197)
Time Frame: 30 Days Post Vaccine
Best CD8+ response against CRM197 at day +30 after transplant, utilizing flow cytometry for interferon-γ (IFN-gamma). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stained with cell trace violet then incubated with CRM197 or vehicle control. Cells were then harvested and stained for flow cytometry. Highest percentage increase of CD8 cells from pre-vaccine to Day + 30.
30 Days Post Vaccine
CD8+CD107a+, Best Response Against Vaccine (CRM 197)
Time Frame: 30 Days Post Vaccine
Best CD8+ response against CRM197 at day +30 for CD107a. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) were incubated with CRM197, or control. Cells were harvested and stained for flow cytometry.
30 Days Post Vaccine
