About this study

Official title: Serologic Response to a New Recombinant, Adjuvanted Herpes Zoster Vaccine in Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Waldenström Macroglobulinemia Treated With First-Line BTK Inhibitors - A Pilot Study

The primary objective of the study is to assess the capability of a patient with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Waldenström Macroglobulinemia (WM) to generate an immune response to the Shingrix vaccine under first-line BTK inhibitors.

Read the detailed description

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM) are known risk factors for zoster reactivation, commonly called shingles. Although a recently FDA-approved recombinant, adjuvanted herpes zoster vaccine (Shingrix) is currently being offered to these populations, no study has specifically evaluated them.

The purpose of the study is to complete a single-arm trial evaluating if patients with CLL or WM, while on treatment with first-line BTK inhibitors, can achieve immunologic response to Shingrix. If effective, this will result in a new, well-tolerated shingles prevention strategy for these patients.

The primary objective is to assess the capability to mount a humoral immune response to Shingrix in patients with CLL or WM under first-line BTK inhibitors.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Shingrix vaccineDrug

    Also called Herpes Zoster Vaccine Recombinant, Adjuvanted

    On day one, patients will receive the first of two doses of the Shingrix vaccine administered as an injection into the muscle in their upper arm. The second dose of vaccine will be administered as an injection to their upper arm approximately 2 months after the first dose.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Humoral Response to Vaccination 4 Weeks After the Second Vaccine Administration

    Vaccine response, as determined by blood antibody levels to the varicella virus glycoprotein E subunit (anti-gE); Baseline is defined as pre-vaccination anti-gE titer in seropositive subjects, and the lower limit of detection in seronegative subjects

    Measured: 4 weeks following the second vaccination, at approximately 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants With Cellular Response to Vaccination 4 Weeks After the Second Vaccine Administration

    Cellular response, as determined by measuring VZgE-specific T-cell responses in blood, 4 weeks after the second vaccine administration.

    Measured: 4 weeks following the second vaccination, at approximately 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Shingrix vaccine in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM), run by University of Rochester at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 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 United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Jan 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Humoral Response to Vaccination 4 Weeks After the Second Vaccine Administration (time frame: 4 weeks following the second vaccination, at approximately 3 months). 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 15 Mar 2024.
