This study tests a new mRNA vaccine called SYS6017 to prevent shingles, a painful rash caused by the chickenpox virus. About 800 healthy adults aged 40 and older will receive either the new vaccine, a placebo, or an existing shingles vaccine. Researchers will check how well the v…

This phase 2 trial tests a new mRNA vaccine called IN001 for preventing shingles in healthy adults aged 50 to 79. Researchers will compare three dose levels of IN001 against the existing Shingrix vaccine to see how safe and effective they are. The study involves 480 participants …

This trial tests whether inebilizumab, an antibody that wipes out certain immune cells called B cells, can improve physical function in adults with ME/CFS that started after an infection. Participants receive three infusions over six months, and the study measures changes in mobi…

This study investigates whether two common vaccines—the shingles vaccine (RZV) and an RSV vaccine (RSVPreF3)—can slow the buildup of fatty plaque in the coronary arteries. The trial enrolls adults aged 50 and older who are at risk for cardiovascular events. Participants receive e…

This trial tests whether a single dose of a live-attenuated shingles vaccine can effectively boost immunity in adults aged 50 and older who have already received the recombinant shingles vaccine. The study measures antibody and cellular immune responses after the booster. If it w…

This study tests a new shingles vaccine in 135 healthy adults aged 50 and older. Researchers will compare the immune response and safety of the new vaccine against an existing one to find the best dose. The goal is to prevent shingles, a painful rash caused by the chickenpox viru…

This study tests whether an extra dose of the shingles vaccine (Shingrix) can boost immunity in people who have had a solid-organ transplant, like a kidney or liver. About 30% of transplant patients still get shingles after the standard two-dose vaccine, likely due to immune-supp…

This study looks at whether the shingles vaccine can prevent shingles and improve survival in 500 lung cancer patients. Participants will either receive the vaccine or not, and researchers will track shingles cases and survival rates over time. The goal is to see if the vaccine o…

This study tests a special gel applied to the skin to see if it can quickly reduce pain from shingles. Thirty adults with shingles-related pain will receive a single application of the gel. Researchers will measure pain levels before and after application, focusing on relief with…

This study tests whether dexamethasone palmitate, a steroid, can better relieve shingles pain and prevent long-term nerve pain compared to standard care. About 954 adults with shingles rash and severe pain will receive the drug by injection or infusion. Researchers will track pai…
