• Inactivated influenza vaccination should be given during the influenza season only

• Other malignancy that could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results, with the exception of the following:

• Any of the following malignancies previously curatively treated: carcinoma in situ of the cervix, good-prognosis ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast, basal, or squamous cell skin cancer
