Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Subjects With Confirmed Herpes Zoster (HZ) Episode | From Month 0 until the cut-off date for final analysis (median follow-up was of 21 months) | A suspected case of HZ was defined as (1) a new rash characteristic of HZ (e.g., unilateral, dermatomal and accompanied by pain broadly defined to include allodynia, pruritus or other sensations), or a vesicular rash suggestive of VZV infection regardless of the distribution, and no alternative diagnosis; or (2) a clinical presentation (symptoms and/or signs) and specific laboratory findings\* suggestive of VZV infection in the absence of characteristic HZ or VZV rash. A suspected case of HZ was confirmed either: by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) or by the HZ Ascertainment Committee (HZAC), consisting of physicians with HZ expertise. |
| Secondary | Duration of 'Worst' HZ-associated Pain | From Month 0 until study end (4 years approximately), from the onset of a confirmed HZ rash over the entire pain reporting period | Duration of HZ-associated pain rated as 3 or greater on the 'worst pain' Zoster Brief Pain Inventory (ZBPI) question, following the onset of a confirmed HZ rash over the entire pain reporting period in subjects with confirmed HZ; presented as T (day) \[=the sum of follow-up period (for subjects without severe worst pain T is 1, for subjects with severe worst pain T is the duration of severe worst pain) expressed in days\]. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Confirmed HZ-associated Complications | From Month 0 until the cut-off date for final analysis (median follow-up was of 21 months) | This analysis excluded complications that were linked to a confirmed HZ case that occurred after the start of the relapse treatment. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN) | From Month 0 until study end (21 months median follow-up) | This analysis excluded PHN episodes that were linked to a confirmed HZ case that occurred after the start of the relapse treatment. |
| Secondary | Antigen-glycoprotein E (gE) Antibody Concentrations in a Sub-cohort of Subjects | At Months 0, 1, 2, 13 and 25 | Anti-gE antibody concentrations were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) and expressed in milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL). The seropositivity cut-off value was greater than or equal to (≥) 97 mIU/mL. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms | During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses | Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 100 millimeters (mm) of injection site. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms | During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses | Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, gastrointestinal symptoms, headache, myalgia, shivering and fever \[defined as axillary/tympanic temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C) or rectal temperature equal to or above 38.0 °C\]. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever \> 39.5 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) | During the 30-day (Days 0-29) post-vaccination period | 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. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Any and Related Potential Immune Mediated Diseases (pIMDs) | From Month 0 up to 365 days post last vaccination | Potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs) are a subset of AEs that include autoimmune diseases and other inflammatory and/or neurologic disorders of interest which may or may not have an autoimmune aetiology. |
| Secondary | Number of Subjects With Any Relapse | From Month 0 until study end (approximate median of 29 months follow-up - minimum 1 year and maximum 4 years) | Relapse was defined as the occurrence of the underlying malignancy or disease for which the HCT was undertaken. |
