Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of an Investigational Zoster Vaccine in Subjects With a History of Varicella (Chickenpox) Given Concomitantly With Another Vaccine (V211-011) (NCT NCT00231816)

NCT ID: NCT00231816

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 weeks

Population: The primary analysis was based on the per protocol population defined as participants who had valid GMT results from samples obtained within the prespecified day ranges at Day 1, at Week 4, or at Week 8 postvaccination, and who did not meet any of the protocol violations prespecified in the statistical analysis plan (SAP).

The Geometric mean titer (GMT) of the VZV glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (gpELISA) antibody responses at Week 4 postvaccination in participants who received ZOSTAVAX™ concomitantly with influenza vaccine was compared to that in subjects who received influenza vaccine and ZOSTAVAX™ nonconcomitantly.
