NCT00535730

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Zoster Vaccine Live and Pneumococcal Vaccine, polyvalent are as well tolerated and immunogenic when the vaccines are given together (in different body sites), as when they are given alone, in adults 60 years of age and older.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of Varicella-zoster Virus (VZV) Antibody Responses at 4 Weeks Postvaccination

    GMT of the VZV antibody responses at 4 weeks postvaccination in subjects who receive ZOSTAVAX™ concomitantly with PNEUMOVAX™ 23 and those who receive ZOSTAVAX™ and PNEUMOVAX™ 23 nonconcomitantly. \*gpELISA = glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay

    4 weeks postvaccination

  • Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) of the Varicella-zoster Virus (VZV) Antibody Responses From Day 1 to 4 Weeks Postvaccination.

    GMFR of the VZV antibody response from prevaccination to Week 4 postvaccination in subjects who receive ZOSTAVAX™ concomitantly with PNEUMOVAX™ 23. gpELISA = glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

    Four weeks postvaccination

  • Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of the Pneumococcal Polysaccharide (PnPs) Serotype 3 Antibody Response at 4 Weeks Postvaccination.

    GMT of the PnPs serotype 3 antibody response at 4 weeks postvaccination in subjects who receive ZOSTAVAX™ concomitantly with PNEUMOVAX™ 23 and those who receive ZOSTAVAX™ and PNEUMOVAX™ 23 nonconcomitantly.

    Four weeks postvaccination

  • Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of the Pneumococcal Polysaccharide (PnPs) Serotype 14 Antibody Response at 4 Weeks Postvaccination.

    GMT of the PnPs serotype 14 antibody response at 4 weeks postvaccination in subjects who receive ZOSTAVAX™ concomitantly with PNEUMOVAX™ 23 and those who receive ZOSTAVAX™ and PNEUMOVAX™ 23 nonconcomitantly.

    Four weeks postvaccination

  • Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of the Pneumococcal Polysaccharide (PnPs) Serotype 19A Antibody Response at 4 Weeks Postvaccination.

    GMT of the PnPs serotype 19A antibody response at 4 weeks postvaccination in subjects who receive ZOSTAVAX™ concomitantly with PNEUMOVAX™ 23 and those who receive ZOSTAVAX™ and PNEUMOVAX™ 23 nonconcomitantly.

    Four weeks postvaccination

  • Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of the Pneumococcal Polysaccharide (PnPs) Serotype 22F Antibody Response at 4 Weeks Postvaccination.

    GMT of the PnPs serotype 22F antibody response at 4 weeks postvaccination in subjects who receive ZOSTAVAX™ concomitantly with PNEUMOVAX™ 23 and those who receive ZOSTAVAX™ and PNEUMOVAX™ 23 nonconcomitantly.

    Four weeks postvaccination

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Safety and Tolerability of Both Vaccines When Administered Concomitantly.

    Eight weeks postvaccination
