Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary study parameter is the antibody response to SARS-CoV-2 in immunized individuals with lung transplantation, defined as an increase compared to reference serum, at 28 days, 6 months and 12 months after vaccination. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary study parameters are: 1) To determine if immunity obtained by vaccination on the waiting list is sustained after lung transplantation 2) SARS-CoV-2 specific T-cell response at baseline, at 28 days, and 6 and 12 months after the second vaccination 3) To assess the possible adverse events as a result of vaccination. 4) IFN- * production measured by SARS-CoV-2 Quantiferon test at baseline, 28 days, 6 months and 12 months after the second vaccination. 5) To determine if COVID-19 infections occur in the vaccinated participants, and to look for correlations in the measured antibody and T-cell responses. 6) To investigate if the immune response to vaccination correlates with the degree of immunosuppression, reflected in e.g. medication dosages, trough levels and the Torque Teno Virus (TTV) levels found in the participants. 7) to investigate the safety, side effects and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in lung transplant recipients who have had the infection and who have recovered. | — |
