Brief Summary:
This pilot clinical study evaluated the safety and metabolic responses to a licensed inactivated seasonal influenza vaccine (TIV) in mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes syndrome (MELAS) volunteers and controls.
Detailed Description:
This pilot clinical study evaluated the safety and metabolic responses to a licensed inactivated seasonal influenza vaccine (TIV). This study will consist of two cohorts: MELAS syndrome volunteers (a specific identified disorder of mitochondrial dysfunction: mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes) between 13-60 years OR adult control volunteers between 18-65 years of age. Both cohorts will receive the same treatment: a single vaccination with an FDA-licensed intramuscular seasonal trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV).
All participants will receive a single administration of a licensed influenza vaccine. Prior to vaccination, participants will provide information regarding health history and responses to health questionnaires. A blood sample and urine specimen were collected prior to vaccination, and at 6 hours, 5-7 days and 26-30 days post-immunization.
