Real-world challenges in eligibility for MMR vaccination two years after autologous and allogeneic HSCT
Vaccine. 2023 Aug 29:S0264-410X(23)00778-8. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.06.075. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMeasles outbreaks have raised concerns of fatal infections in immunocompromised patients. Canadian guidelines advise administration of live vaccines, such as measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR), two yearsafter hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) yet studies have not assessed eligibility based on medication contraindications. We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 72 autologous (auto-HSCT) and 68 allogeneic (allo-HSCT) recipients at the Windsor Regional Cancer Center to determine MMR reactivity and eligibilit...

Measles, mumps, and rubella revaccination in children after completion of chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a single-center prospective efficacy and safety analysis
CONCLUSIONS: MMR revaccination is immunogenic for the population. We suggest periodic monitoring of antibody titers, in addition to a booster vaccination, although the optimal timing of booster vaccination remains to be investigated further.PMID:37087716 | DOI:10.1007/s12519-023-00721-x

Measles, mumps and rubella vaccine 12 months after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
The objectives of this study were to evaluate when patients received MMR vaccine after an HSCT in our care service and if there were reports of any side effects. We retrospectively reviewed the records of HSCT recipients who received at least one MMR dose in our care service, a quaternary teaching hospital in Sao Paulo city, Brazil, from 2017 to 2021. We identified 82 patients: 75.6% (90.1% in the autologous group and 45.1% in the allogeneic group) were vaccinated before 23 months post-transplantation. None reported side effects following the vaccination. Our data support that the MMR vaccination is safe from 12 to 23 mont...

Analysis of Immunity against Measles, Mumps, Rubella, and Varicella Zoster in Adult Recipients of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Single-Center Experience
Acta Med Okayama. 2022 Jun;76(3):247-253. doi: 10.18926/AMO/63718.ABSTRACTVaccine-preventable disease (VPD) infections are more severe in immunocompromised hosts. Vaccination against measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella zoster (VZV) (MMRV) is therefore recommended for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) recipients. However, studies on adult HCT recipients with VPD infections are limited. At our institution, we have systematically conducted serological MMRV tests as a part of check-up examinations during long-term follow-up (LTFU) after HCT since 2015. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate changes in the se...
