Varicella Zoster Virus Vaccination

ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how well a shingles vaccine works in people who have certain immune system-related inflammatory diseases, like lupus, scleroderma, or vasculitis. These patients often take medications that weaken their immune system, which puts them at higher risk for shingles. The researchers want to see if the recommended vaccine helps these patients develop protection against the virus that causes shingles.

People eligible for this study are adults over 18 who are being treated for one of these immune diseases and who either need the vaccine because of their weakened immune system or because they are over 65 years old. Participants will have already received at least one dose of the vaccine between June 2025 and June 2026. The study is open to all genders, but people with cancer, previous shingles vaccination, pregnancy, or certain legal or health restrictions are not eligible. Participants can expect to have blood tests to check their immune response after vaccination, and their care will continue as usual throughout the study. This research is important because it will help doctors understand how well the vaccine protects people whose immune systems may not respond as strongly.
