The investigators goal is to assess the vaccine response of kidney transplant patients following vaccination against SARS-CoV-2.

The study population will be derived from cohorts of kidney transplant patients who have been transplanted for more than 3 months and have no contraindications to vaccination. These patients will be vaccinated as part of routine care with a CoV-2 SARS vaccine licensed in France.

In this cohort, the investigators wish to study the post-vaccination humoral response by assaying neutralizing antibodies against SARS CoV-2 and the specific cellular response of SARS Cov-2 by quantiferon and in vitro lymphocyte stimulation assays.

• Patient vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2 as part of routine care
• Kidney or pancreatic kidney transplant
