Safety of the Herpes Zoster Subunit Vaccine in Lupus

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Non-inferiority Crossover Study Evaluating the Safety and Immunogenicity of the Herpes Zoster Subunit Vaccine in Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus


Sponsor

NYU Langone Health

Enrollment

224 participants

Start Date

Dec 21, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, non-inferiority crossover study will evaluate the Herpes Zoster Sunbit (HZ/su) vaccine in SLE patients in order to evaluate safety and immunogenicity in patients with variable baseline clinical activities, ages and immunosuppressant exposures. The investigators hypothesize that HZ/su administration will be non-inferior to placebo with respect to the risk of moderate or severe SLE flare(s) occurring within 24 weeks of receiving the first dose of the assigned treatment. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that immunogenicity of the vaccine in SLE patients will be at least 50% of levels observed in healthy subjects from prior large clinical trials.
