About this study

Official title: Biological and Clinical Efficacy of Recombinant Zoster Vaccine (Shingrix) in Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

This is a biological study. Patients who are eligible to receive Shingrix through the Italian National Health System will be invited to participate in the study. According to AIFA indication, the two doses of vaccine will be administered 4-8 weeks apart. Blood samples will be collected prior to the first vaccine dose (i.e. within the time frame of 3 months prior to the first dose) and 1, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months after the second vaccine dose to evaluate the serological response of Shingrix.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-centre, prospective study, performed on biological samples only. Patients who are eligible to receive Shingrix through the Italian National Health System will be invited to participate in the study.

According to AIFA indication, the two doses of vaccine will be administered 4-8 weeks apart.

Blood samples will be collected prior to the first vaccine dose (i.e. within the time frame of 3 months prior to the first dose) and 1, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months after the second vaccine dose to evaluate the serological response of Shingrix. All protocol procedures (including clinical assessment and blood draws) will be performed during regular follow-up visits according to clinical practice. No additional invasive/dangerous/painful procedures will be required by the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Serologic response evaluation

    Rate of positive serologic response to Shingrix in different subsets of patients as determined by antibody response to varicella-zoster virus (≥4-fold increase in anti-gE titer from baseline)

    Measured: at 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing serologic response evaluation in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, run by Gruppo Italiano Malattie EMatologiche dell'Adulto at 1 site in Italy.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Paola Fazi (0670390528, p.fazi@gimema.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serologic response evaluation (time frame: at 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 May 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
