Recruiting studies
- NCT04128189RecruitingPhase 3
Shingrix vaccine for people waiting for a kidney transplant
This Phase 3 study tests whether the shingles vaccine Shingrix is safe and effective for adults with chronic kidney failure who are on the transplant waiting list. It aims to protect you from shingles while you may be dealing with transplant-related immune changes.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–70 - NCT06596148Enrolling by invitation
Improving shingles vaccination for veterans on immune-suppressing drugs
This trial tests a way to help doctors encourage more veterans to get the Shingrix vaccine, which protects against shingles. It focuses on veterans taking medications that weaken the immune system.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06763783Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Shingles vaccine study for people with rheumatic diseases
This study offers the Shingrix shingles vaccine for free to adults with inflammatory rheumatic diseases. It compares how well the vaccine works in people taking immune-suppressing drugs versus those not taking them.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT06262776Recruiting
Shingles vaccine safety study for transplant recipients
This trial tests whether the shingles vaccine (RZV) is safe and works well for organ transplant recipients and their household members. It also includes people on dialysis or certain immunosuppressants.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 18 years+ - NCT05775718RecruitingPhase 2
Shingrix shot after bone marrow transplant to prevent shingles
This Phase 2 study tests whether an additional Shingrix (RZV) vaccine dose helps prevent shingles in people who previously had an allogeneic bone marrow or stem cell transplant. It focuses on people who are at least a year out from their first two Shingrix doses.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–79 - NCT07534007Recruiting
Shingles vaccine response in patients on immune-modifying drugs
This study tests a new shingles vaccine in people with psoriasis or myelofibrosis, some of whom take immune-modifying medications. Researchers want to understand how well the vaccine works and how the immune system responds in these groups.
Pavia, LombardaAges 18–100 - NCT05170399RecruitingPhase 4
Testing how cancer vaccines work in B-cell blood cancers
This study measures how well certain vaccines stimulate the immune system in people with B-cell blood cancers such as CLL and different types of lymphoma or Waldenström macroglobulinemia. It may help doctors better predict who will benefit most from vaccination and improve vaccine planning for these conditions.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT05550194RecruitingPhase 4
Study of an antiviral to treat achalasia-related nerve inflammation
This trial looks at whether the antiviral medicine valacyclovir, plus Shingrix vaccine, can change disease affecting the gut’s nerve system in people with achalasia. If you’re eligible, you would complete specific swallow and pressure tests and then take the medicines for about two months.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–75 - NCT05554068RecruitingPhase 2
Testing the shingles vaccine response after bone marrow transplant
This Phase 2 study looks at how well the shingles vaccine works in people who had an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant. It aims to measure the body’s immune response to the vaccine and check that it’s safe in this recovery period.
Maywood, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05580458RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Shingles vaccine study for adults with well-controlled HIV
This Phase 1/2 study tests how safe and how well a shingles (varicella zoster) vaccine works in adults living with HIV whose immune status is measured by CD4 count, plus a healthy comparison group. It may help researchers understand whether the vaccine can safely boost protection in people with HIV.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06137755RecruitingPhase 1
Shingles vaccine study for healthy adults 50-65
This trial tests a new shingles vaccine in healthy adults aged 50 to 65. Shingles can cause a painful rash, and the vaccine aims to prevent it.
Seoul, Eunpyeong-guAges 50–64 - NCT06574594Recruiting
Testing shingles vaccine response when stopping methotrexate in RA
This trial looks at whether pausing methotrexate (a common RA medication) affects how well the shingles vaccine (Shingrix) works for people with rheumatoid arthritis. It may help decide if stopping methotrexate temporarily can improve vaccine protection.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06932523RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Shingles vaccine study for healthy adults
This trial tests a new shingles vaccine for healthy adults 40 and older. It aims to see if the vaccine is safe and helps protect against shingles.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 40 years+ - NCT07485283RecruitingPhase 4
Shingles vaccine for preventing heart problems and dementia
This trial tests whether a shingles vaccine can help prevent heart attacks, strokes, and dementia in older adults. If you are 65 or older and haven't had the shingles vaccine before, you may be able to join.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Shingrix?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14 recruiting studies that include Shingrix, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Shingrix trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Shingrix an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Shingrix or a specific trial is right for you.
