Immune Reconstitution and Need for Booster Vaccinations Among Non-Transplant Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Single-Center Experience. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Waning immunity from childhood vaccines can be more profound in pediatric patients following chemo/immunotherapy. Moreover, childhood cancer survivors (CCS) are at significantly increased risk for life‐threatening infections. We implemented an institutional standard of practice (SOP) to assess immune reconstitution and provide ...
