Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of inactivated VZV vaccine in recipients of autologous HCT and to assess the impact of inactivated VZV vaccine on the development of HZ following autologous HCT;Secondary Objective: To assess the impact of inactivated VZV vaccine on: 1) the development of moderate to severe HZ-associated pain at any time from HZ onset through the end of the 6 month HZ follow-up period, 2) the development of HZ complications, and 3) the development of PHN.;Primary end point(s): The primary clinical efficacy endpoint will be the incidence of HZ.
