Study Summary

This trial compares a new vaccine to the standard one to see if it better prevents COVID-19 in people with CLL (a type of cancer). The new vaccine activates infection-fighting blood cells in people with weakened immunity.

Who is the study for?
Adults diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have had at least two Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines over three months ago can join. They should be in good health otherwise, not pregnant, and willing to use birth control. People with recent intensive cancer treatments, certain allergies, a history of heart inflammation, or those on high-dose steroids cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the GEO-CM04S1 vaccine booster against standard COVID-19 vaccines for CLL patients. The new vaccine uses a modified virus that might better stimulate immune cells even when the immune system is weakened by CLL.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not detailed but may include typical vaccine reactions like soreness at the injection site, fatigue, fever, and allergic responses due to components similar to other vaccines.
