This study will compare the two vaccines that have been developed to prevent and/or lessen the effects of shingles. One vaccine is live (Zostavax, licensed by FDA) and the other, herpes zoster subunit (HZ/su), contains a piece of the shingles virus (not live) and an ingredient that may enhance the body's immune response to the vaccine, and is currently investigational. The vaccines are being compared to assess their ability to stimulated protection against shingles. The study will provide an opportunity to determine the safety profile of each vaccine in a single trial. The study will also look at the effect of age on the immune response to the two vaccines and on the persistence of these responses.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate lot-to-lot consistency in terms of immunogenicity, and evaluate safety of the Herpes Zoster subunit (HZ/su) vaccine. The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind study with three parallel groups.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' HZ/su vaccine administered on a 0- and 1- to 2-months schedule in adults 18 years of age or older who are receiving chronic immunosuppressive therapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess immunogenicity, reactogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' HZ/su vaccine when its first dose is co-administered with the Boostrix® vaccine in adults aged 50 years or older compared to administration of vaccines separately.
The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity, reactogenicity and safety of the GSK Biologicals HZ/su candidate vaccine when its first dose is co-administered with Pneumovax 23™ vaccine in adults aged 50 years or older.The impact of HZ/su vaccine on Pneumovax 23™ vaccine immune response will also be evaluated.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ASP2151 (200 mg and 400 mg) in comparison with valaciclovir (VACV) 3000 mg in patients with herpes zoster.
The purpose of this study is to assess immunogenicity, reactogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' HZ/su vaccine when its first dose is co-administered with the FLU-D-QIV vaccine in adults aged 50 years or older compared to administration of vaccines separately.
In this study the investigators are trying to identify immune signatures that are associated with effective or poor vaccine responses to naturally-acquired herpes zoster virus and the zoster (shingles) vaccine, Zostavax.
Epidemiological information on varicella complications in children is essential for the development of appropriate immunization recommendations. Economic analyses of varicella immunization are sensitive to the costs of hospitalized cases, so there is a need to validate varicella-related hospitalization data in a country-specific manner. These data also provide a baseline for comparison with data collected after routine varicella immunization to evaluate the overall impact and cost-effectiveness of varicella immunization programs. Knowledge about the cause and incidence of varicella-related hospitalizations in Turkey is limited, center-specific and not sufficiently accurate. The aim of this multicenter study (VARICOMP) was to estimate the annual incidence of pediatric varicella-related hospitalization, describe the associated complications and estimate the annual mortality and economic cost of these cases.
