A study to assess the long-term vaccine effectiveness of Shingrix vaccine given to adults 50 years of age or older in the United States (US)
Trial overview
The Vaccine Effectiveness (VE) of 2 doses of RZV in preventing Herpes Zoster (HZ), when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose in adults aged ≥ 50 years
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 2 doses of RZV in preventing Post-Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN), when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose in adults aged ≥ 50 years
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 2 doses of RZV in preventing HZ in adults aged ≥ 50 years stratified by age, by sex and by race/ethnicity, when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 2 doses of RZV in preventing PHN in adults aged ≥ 50 years stratified by age, by sex and by race/ethnicity, when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 2 doses of RZV in preventing HZ in adults aged ≥ 50 years by prevalent comorbidities at baseline (kidney disease, heart disease, lung disease, liver disease, diabetes), when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 2 doses of RZV in preventing HZ in adults aged ≥ 50 years by history of ZVL, when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The incidence of HZ in vaccinated (2 doses of RZV) and RZV unvaccinated adults ≥ 50 years, by prior history of HZ, when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 2 doses of RZV in preventing Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus (HZO) in adults aged ≥ 50 years, when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 2 doses of RZV in preventing hospitalized Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI), and hospitalized stroke in adults aged ≥ 50 years, when the second dose is received 4 weeks to 6 months after the first dose
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post second dose of vaccination
The VE of 1 dose of RZV in preventing HZ in adults aged ≥ 50 years
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post first dose of vaccination
The VE of 1 dose of RZV in preventing PHN in adults aged ≥ 50 years
Timeframe: During a 10-year follow up period post first dose of vaccination
- Age 50 years or more at the index date for all study objectives
- At least 1 year of continuous KPSC membership before the index date (allowing for a 31-day gap in membership)
- Individuals who receive a second dose less than 4 weeks after the first dose, since Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) guidelines state that these individuals must repeat the second dose.
- Individuals with an HZ diagnosis in the 6 months prior to index date.
- At least 1 year of continuous KPSC membership before the index date (allowing for a 31-day gap in membership)
Age 50 years or more at the index date for all study objectives
- Individuals with an HZ diagnosis in the 6 months prior to index date.
- Individuals with HZ occurring within 30 days after the index date for both exposed and unexposed groups.
Individuals who receive a second dose less than 4 weeks after the first dose, since Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) guidelines state that these individuals must repeat the second dose.
