NCT ID NCT05879419
Summary
This study is checking if the Shingrix shingles vaccine is safe and works well for people with autoimmune rheumatic diseases like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. These patients are at high risk for shingles but are often on medications that weaken the immune system. Researchers are following over 2000 participants to see if the vaccine causes disease flares and how long its protection lasts.
