Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reactogenicity, safety and immunogenicity of 2 doses of PED-HZ/su, GSK's vaccine candidate for the prevention of Herpes Zoster (HZ) in immunocompromised paediatric renal transplant recipients aged 1-17 years

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PED-HZ/su 12-17 Group

Paediatric renal transplant recipients aged 12 to 17 years old, receiving 2 doses of the investigational vaccine (PED HZ/su)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

PED-HZ/su

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

GSK's candidate vaccine- PED-HZ/su. is administered intramuscularly in the deltoid of the non-dominant arm, on a two-dose schedule in the two investigational groups.

Control 12-17 Group

Paediatric renal transplant recipients aged 12 to 17 years old, not receiving the investigational vaccine but being treated according to the local standard of care

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

PED-HZ/su 1-11 Group

Paediatric renal transplant recipients aged 1 to 11 years old, receiving 2 doses of the investigational vaccine (PED HZ/su).

Enrolment into this group will be in a staggered manner. Following enrolment into the PED-HZ/su 12-17 group, a safety evaluation of data collected up to visit month 2 will be performed. Upon favourable outcome of the evaluation, enrolment into this group will begin.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Subjects' parent(s)/Legally Acceptable Representative(s) \[LAR(s) who, in the opinion of the investigator, can and will comply, with the requirements of the protocol
* Written or witnessed/thumb printed informed consent obtained from the parent(s)/LAR(s) of the subject prior to performance of any study specific procedure.
* Written informed assent obtained from the subjects when applicable according to local requirements.
* A male or female between, and including, 1 and 17 years of age at the time of randomisation (Visit Day 1)
* Body weight ≥ 6 kg/13.23 pounds.
* A subject is eligible if they meet at least one of the following criteria:

* Documented previous VZV vaccination OR
* Medically verified varicella (with source documentation) OR
* Seropositive for VZV prior to transplantation.
* Subjects with renal transplant more than six months (180 days) prior randomization (Visit Day 1)
* Subject who has received an ABO compatible allogeneic renal transplant (allograft).
* Subject with stable renal function with stability defined as \<20% variability between the last two creatinine measurements or based on investigator opinion after review of multiple creatinine measurements.
* Subject receiving maintenance immunosuppressive therapy for the prevention of allograft rejection for a minimum of one month (30 days) prior to randomization (Visit Day 1).
* Female subjects of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study, if the subject

* has practiced adequate contraception for 30 days prior to Visit Day 1 and has agreed to continue adequate contraception during the entire treatment period and for 2 months after completion of the vaccination series

Exclusion Criteria

Medical conditions

* Any primary kidney disease with a high incidence of recurrent primary kidney disease within the allograft
* Evidence of recurrent primary kidney disease within the current allograft
* Previous allograft loss secondary to recurrent primary kidney disease
* History of more than one organ transplanted (that is, kidney-liver, simultaneous double kidney or kidney-other organ(s) transplanted).

* Panel Reactive Antibodies (PRA) calculated PRA (cPRA) or Calculated Reaction Frequency (cRF) score that is unknown at the time of transplant
* VZV serostatus unknown prior to transplant
* Subjects with advanced chronic kidney disease
* Evidence of significant proteinuria (≥ 200 g/mol creatinine) believed to be of renal origin (an example of non-renal origin is proteinuria from mucus in a reconstructed bladder)
* Subjects without multiple dialysis options in the event acute or chronic dialysis needed.
* History of unstable or progressive neurological disorder.
* Subjects ≤ 5 years of age with a history of one or more simple or complex febrile seizures

* Any condition which, in the judgement of the investigator would make intramuscular injection unsafe.
* Atypical Haemolytic Uraemic Syndrome.

Prior/Concomitant therapy

* Use of any investigational or non-registered product other than the study vaccine during the period starting 30 days before Visit Day 1 (Day -29 to Day -1), or planned use during the study period.
