Brief Summary:
This study will evaluate the effect of the microorganisms in the gut on how well the flu or COVID-19 vaccine works in people who have a weakened immune system due to inflammatory bowel disease. Participants can expect to be in the study for up to 65 days.
Detailed Description:
The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the role of gut microbiome in influenza or COVID-19 vaccine response in immunosuppressed populations. Microbial diversity (alpha diversity) is decreased in immunosuppressed patients and might be associated with lower immunogenicity to vaccines.
It is known that patients with IBD have dysbiosis of their gut microbiome and those immunosuppressed may have a lower vaccine response. In this aim, the investigators will evaluate whether differences in microbial diversity predict immune response to the influenza and COVID-19 vaccine.
In this prospective study, immunosuppressed IBD patients will be vaccinated per standard of care and blood will be collected to measure the immune response. A fecal and saliva sample will be collected to characterize the gut microbiome. The investigators hypothesize that reduced richness / alpha-diversity in gut microbiota will correlate with those with a blunted vaccine response.
