Summary
This study looks at how well the shingles vaccine (Shingrix) works and how safe it is in adults with kidney failure who are waiting for a kidney transplant. Some participants will get an extra dose of the vaccine after their transplant to see if it improves their immune protection. The goal is to find better ways to prevent shingles in people with weakened immune systems.
