Tests treatment safety and results for Vaccine-Preventable Diseases
Official title A Phase Ⅲ Clinical Study to Evaluate Protective Efficacy and Safety of a Recombinant Herpes Zoster Vaccine
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06088745
What this study is testing
What is Recombinant Herpes Zoster Vaccine?
Recombinant Herpes Zoster Vaccine is an investigational medicine, given as an injectable medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for vaccine-preventable diseases.
Also referred to as LZ901.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This clinical trial is to study protective efficacy and safety of a recombinant herpes zoster vaccine (LZ901) and sponsored by Beijing Luzhu Biotechnology Co., Ltd. It is a phase Ⅲ, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled in healthy people aged 40 years and older.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
