Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the safety of HZV-1 and HZV-2 vaccines in healthy adults aged 50 to 69 years who have voluntarily given written consent to participate in this study.
17 studies on the registry are indexed under Varicella Zoster Virus Infection; 3 are open to participants now.

Men and women who agree to use a highly effective method of (*See section 8.7 of the protocol) (however, not women of childbearing age or men who do not have a spouse (partner) may be enrolled regardless of method of contraception).
Exclusion Criteria:
Have any of the following conditions, or any serious medical or neuropsychiatric condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make them ineligible to participate in this study.
Respiratory disease: asthma, (COPD), active tuberculosis, or latent tuberculosis.
Serious cardiovascular disease: Congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, uncontrolled hypertension, myocarditis, pericarditis, etc.
Nervous system disease: epilepsy, seizures (within 3 years prior to first dose of investigational drug), migraine, stroke, cerebral lesions, Guillain-Barré syndrome, encephalomyelitis, transverse myelitis, dementia, etc.
④ History of within 5 years prior to the first dose of investigational drug and a history of malignant disease with a high risk of recurrence (skin basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma with a minimal risk of recurrence based on clinical judgment may be eligible).
⑤ diseases including autoimmune hypothyroidism and psoriasis
⑥ Immunodeficiency diseases
⑦ Thrombosis at uncommon sites, such as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and visceral venous thrombosis, and heparin-induced thrombocytopenia or antiphospholipid syndrome
⑧ Capillary leak syndrome
⑨ Other hepatobiliary, renal, endocrine, urinary, or musculoskeletal diseases deemed clinically significant by the investigator
Treatment with or immunomodulatory agents or chronic use within 6 months prior to the first dose of investigational product.
① Immunosuppressants or immunomodulators: Azathioprine, Cyclosporine, Interferon, G-CSF, Tacrolimus, Everolimus, Sirolimus, Cyclophosphamide, 6-Mercaptopurine, Methotrexate, Rapamycin, Leflunomide, etc.
② Systemic steroids: Prednisolone at a dose of ≥10 mg/day for more than 14 consecutive days (topical, inhaled, nasal corticosteroids and eye drops are allowed at any dose).
Have received or plan to receive any other vaccine within 4 weeks prior to or after each dose of investigational product.
(Allow influenza vaccines and COVID-19 vaccines, but not vaccinations within 14 days before or after receiving an investigational drug)
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: long-term lung disease that makes it hard to breathe out, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
