Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Influenza vaccination is indicated for all adults, but the immunogenicity of vaccination has not been assessed in all situations. We are conducting a prospective unblinded study of influenza vaccine recipients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Influenza vaccination is indicated for all adults, but the immunogenicity of vaccination has not been assessed in all situations. In particular, immune responses following influenza vaccination have not been studied in the setting of advanced melanoma and in the context of various anti-tumor treatments. In this study, we will look at the immune response of subjects receiving vaccination.
