- Abstract
- In patients early post-autologous stem cell transplant, seroprotection rates were high for Hemophilus influenzae type B and tetanus toxoid (70%-90%) but lower for Streptococcus pneumoniae (30%-50%) including after revaccination. There were high rates of seropositivity (67%-86%) to measles, mumps, and rubella and varicella zoster virus. Durability of protection requires assessment.
