[CIS-PAGID] Quick & Dirty Neoantigen?

[Brian P Vickery]

I follow a medically complex young man with vasculitis and 
hypogammaglobulinemia and for various reasons, completing the 
bacteriophage procedure is probably not feasible. Does anyone have 
experience using another neoantigen in patients on IVIG, ideally one that 
could be done in 4-6 wks? I had heard of folks using Menactra but can't 
find any literature on it (nor in a cursory search, a place to titer the 
antibody). Thought I'd throw it out to the group. 

Thanks for any thoughts-
BPV
