Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and tolerability of V212 when administered to adults with solid tumor malignancy (STM) receiving chemotherapy and to assess the impact of V212 on the development of herpes zoster (HZ) in adults with STM receiving chemotherapy. The primary hypothesis is that vaccination with V212 will reduce the incidence of HZ compared with placebo in adults with STM (lower bound of the 97.5% {one-sided α=0.0125} confidence interval [CI] for the estimated vaccine efficacy in adults with STM be >25%). Participants with hematologic malignancy (HM) were also enrolled and were to be originally included in the primary and secondary objectives and analyses. After an interim analysis demonstrated clear evidence of futility of V212 in the HM population, enrollment of this population was stopped and all HM-related objectives and analyses were made exploratory and are not reported in this record.
The addition of gabapentin therapy to standard antiviral treatment with valacyclovir in acute herpes zoster patients will decrease the incidence of post-herpetic neuralgia.
This study is being conducted to obtain safety and immunogenicity data after a booster dose of Zoster Vaccine, Live administered ≥10 years following an initial dose. This information will be compared to similar information obtained after Zoster Vaccine, Live administration to age-matched and younger participants who are receiving their first dose of Zoster Vaccine, Live. The study will determine: 1) whether a booster dose of Zoster Vaccine, Live in participants ≥70 years of age induces an antibody response that is noninferior to that of a first dose of Zoster Vaccine, Live in participants matched for age; 2) whether a booster dose of Zoster Vaccine, Live induces an acceptable rise in the level of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) antibodies.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and efficacy of inactivated VZV vaccine for the prevention of HZ and HZ-related complications in adult recipients of autologous hematopoietic cell transplants (HCTs). The primary hypothesis is that vaccination with V212 vaccine will reduce the incidence of herpes zoster (HZ) compared to placebo when administered to recipients of HCT. The statistical criterion for success requires that the lower bound of the 95% confidence interval for the estimated vaccine efficacy in the V212 recipients (excluding the high-antigen lot) compared with that in the placebo recipients is >25%.
The aim of the study is to investigate the memory immune response and the yearly persistence of the immunity against Japanese Encephalitis (JE) after vaccination with Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (JE-CV) in participants previously vaccinated with JE-CV vaccine. Objectives: - To describe JE immune status before and after JE-CV vaccination in subjects previously vaccinated with JE-CV vaccine - To describe the immune status before and after JE-CV vaccination in JE-naïve control subjects. - To describe the safety (in terms of solicited and unsolicited adverse events) of a single dose of JE-CV vaccine up to 6 months after the last vaccination. - To describe all related serious adverse events (SAEs) and related deaths from 6 months to 5 years after vaccination in JE-CV-primed subjects.
The purpose of this observer-blind study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' candidate Herpes Zoster (HZ) vaccine in adults aged ≥ 70 years. Two studies (Zoster-006 [NCT01165177] and Zoster-022 [NCT01165229]) will be conducted concurrently to evaluate efficacy of GSK1437173A vaccine. A pooled analysis of data from both studies combined will be conducted contingent on each study achieving its objectives. This protocol posting also deals with the outcome measures related to the pooled analysis.
This observer-blind study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals' investigational Herpes Zoster (HZ) vaccine GSK1437173A in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected subjects, firstly enrolling subjects treated with antiretroviral therapy (ART) and with high CD4 T cell counts, and subsequently ART-treated subjects with low CD4 T cell counts, and ART-naïve subjects with high CD4 T cell counts. This Protocol Posting has been updated following Amendment 1 of the Protocol, August 2010. The impacted sections is exclusion criteria.
The purpose of this observer-blind study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' candidate Herpes Zoster (HZ) vaccine in adults aged ≥ 50 years. Two studies [ZOSTER-006 (NCT01165177) and ZOSTER-022 (NCT01165229)] are being conducted concurrently to evaluate efficacy of GSK1437173A vaccine. A pooled analysis of data from both studies combined will be conducted contingent on each study achieving its objectives. The protocol posting of study ZOSTER-022 also deals with the outcome measures related to the pooled analysis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the seroprevalence of Hepatitis A Virus (HAV), Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex (HSV) and Bordetella pertussis (BP)infections in Mexico.
To study about the immunogenicity, safety and efficacy of varicella-zoster virus vaccine in HIV-infected children.
