| Figure 9: Ta1 improves response to H1N1 2009 influenza vaccine. A study with 120 adults with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on chronic dialysis were given the egg-derived 2009 H1N1 monovalent vaccine (Focetria®, Novartis) with or without Ta1 (7 days prior to vaccination as well as on the day of vaccination) [193]. Those treated with Ta1 achieved a marked increase in seroconversion which lasted up to 42 days after vaccination. |
