T-cell responses linked with protection from SARS-CoV-2 infection in vaccinated individuals with or without cancer

T-cell responses directed against the receptor-binding domain of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein were associated with protection from SARS-CoV-2 infection in vaccinated individuals with or without cancer, with lower T-cell responses observed in patients with blood cancers.
