Study to Evaluate Efficacy, Safety and Immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' Herpes Zoster (HZ) Vaccine GSK1437173A in Adults Aged 50 Years and Older

Efficacy, Safety, and Immunogenicity Study of GSK Biologicals' Herpes Zoster Vaccine GSK1437173A in Adults Aged 50 Years or Older

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.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Herpes Zoster
• Intervention / Treatment: Biological: Herpes Zoster Vaccine GSK1437173A; Biological: Placebo

Detailed Description

This protocol summary has been updated following Protocol Amendment 4 changes to study objectives and endpoints and the analyses of the objectives in 2 steps.

Step 1 will include analyses of the following objectives of ZOSTER-006 (NCT01165177): all HZ VE objectives and all reactogenicity/safety and immunogenicity objectives. At step 2, all objectives of study ZOSTER-006 (NCT01165177) will be analyzed. Objectives already analyzed at step 1 will be re-analyzed (confirmatory descriptive in case of inferential analysis at step 1 or descriptive analysis otherwise). At step 2, pooled analyses of studies ZOSTER-006 (NCT01165177) and ZOSTER-022 (NCT01165229) are planned; overall PHN VE in subjects ≥ 70 YOA, and other pre-specified endpoints will be analyzed.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Number of Subjects With Confirmed Herpes Zoster (HZ) Cases	Confirmed HZ cases during the study were assessed in the Modified Total Vaccinated Cohort (mTVc)	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Number of Subjects With Any Episodes of Post-Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN)	The incidence of PHN was calculated using the modified total vaccinated chort.	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With a Reduction of Duration of Severe 'Worst' HZ-associated Pain	Severe 'worst' pain was defined as HZ-associated pain rated as 3 or above on the 'worst pain' Zoster Brief Pain Inventory (ZBPI) questionnaire. The outcome assessed the duration of severe 'worst' HZ-associated pain following the onset of a confirmed HZ rash over the entire pain reporting period as measured by the ZBPI in subjects with confirmed HZ. This analysis involved any subject reporting clinically significant pain (i.e. pain with a score of 3 or more on a 0-10 point scale) at any time during the study.	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With Confirmed HZ Episode Related Mortality	The analysis focused on the number of subjects who died due to HZ	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With HZ Related Complications	The analysis focused on the incidence of HZ complications in subjects with confirmed HZ	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With Confirmed HZ Episode Related Hospitalizations	The analysis focused on confirmed HZ episode related hospitalizations.	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With a Confirmed HZ Episode Having a Reduction of Duration of Pain Medication Associated With HZ	The analysis focused on patients who experienced a reduction in duration of pain medication administered for HZ in subjects with confirmed HZ.	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With a Confirmed HZ Episode Taking Pain Medication Associated With HZ	The analysis focused on subjects taking pain medication due to HZ	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Days With Severe 'Worst' HZ-associated Pain.	Severe 'worst' pain was defined as HZ-associated pain rated as 3 or above on the 'worst pain' ZBPI questionnaire. This Outcome Measure was only assessed participants with confirmed HZ. This analysis involved any subject reporting ZBPI clinically significant pain (i.e. pain with a score of 3 or more on a 0-10 point scale) at any time during the study.	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With Confirmed HZ Episode Related Mortality and Hospitalizations	The analysis focused on confirmed HZ episode related hospitalizations and deaths.	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
Number of Subjects With HZ Related Complications, by Complication Type	Complication types included HZ vasculitis, Disseminated Disease, Ophtalmic Disease, Neurologic Disease, Visceral Disease and Stroke. This Outcome Measure was only assessed participants with confirmed HZ.	During the entire study period (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)

Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms	Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = Significant pain at rest that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 100 millimeters (mm) of injection site. Relationship analysis was not performed.	During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period
Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms	Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, GI (gastrointestinal) symptoms (included nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain), fever [defined as oral, axillary, rectal or tympanic temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)], headache, myalgia, shivering and sweating. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = temperature> 39.0 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.	Within the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period
Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Symptoms (Solicited and Unsolicited)	Number of subjects with any and grade 3 solicited and unsolicited symptoms were tabulated	Within the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period

Number of Subjects With AEs With Any and Related Medically Attended Visit	Occurrence and relationship to vaccination of medically attended visits (defined as hospitalizations, emergency room visits or visits to or from medical personnel), other than routine health care visits in all subjects.	From Month 0 to Month 8 post-vaccination
Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)	Occurrence, intensity and relationship to vaccination of unsolicited AEs, according to the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) classification in all subjects An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. Grade 3 AE = an AE which prevented normal, everyday activities. Related = AE assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.	Within 30 days (Days 0 - 29) after each vaccination
Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)	Occurrence and relationship to vaccination of all SAEs in all subjects. Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.	Within the 30-day (Days 0-29) post-vaccination period, up to Month 14 and up to study end (3 to 5 year period following Day 0)
