About this study

In this study, we will administer Fluzone® High-Dose vaccine with a planned booster to patients with monoclonal gammopathies (stratified by requirement for therapy) irrespective of age. All patients will receive an initial vaccine followed by a booster vaccine 30 days (+/- 7 days) later and will then be followed for outcomes until the end of flu season.

Treatment and study plan

Fluzone

Drug

Fluzone High-Dose will be administered with a planned booster at 30 days post initial administration

Other names: Fluzone High Dose

Primary outcomes

  1. Rate of Disease Control

    Time frame: up to 10 months

    Lack of disease progression requiring therapy as measured by International Myeloma Working Group criteria

Secondary outcomes

  1. Influenza related morbidity rate

    Time frame: up to 10 months

    Measure the rate of influenza related morbidity at the end of the flu season

  2. Serologic Protection Rate after initial vaccine

    Time frame: 30 days post vaccine

    Evaluate rates of serologic protection (defined as HAI titer > 40) following initial vaccine dose

  3. Serologic Protection Rate after initial vaccine

    Time frame: 30 days post booster

    Evaluate rates of serologic protection (defined as HAI titer > 40) following booster vaccine dose

  4. T cell response

    Time frame: 30 day post initial vaccine

    Measurement of CD4+/CD8+, NK cells and influenza-specific T cell

  5. T cell response

    Time frame: 30 day post booster

    Measurement of CD4+/CD8+, NK cells and influenza-specific T cell
