Participants must be re-vaccinated against Haemophilus influenzae type b and Streptococcus pneumoniae if clinically feasible, according to institutional guidelines for immune reconstitution after HSCT. All participants should be administered coverage with prophylactic antibiotics according to institutional post-transplant infection prophylaxis guidances, including coverage against Neisseria meningitidis for at least 2 weeks after meningococcal vaccination.
