title: Immunogenicity of the seven valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in patients with ataxia-telangiectasia.
abstract: Immune responses to a 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine were determined in 10 patients with ataxia-telangiectasia who are at high risk for pneumococcal disease because of immunodeficiency. Pneumococcal antibody titers for 7 serotypes measured increased 2.0- to 7.5-fold after immunization.
