PG - 2026-2035 LID - S0264-410X(24)00194-4 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.02.035 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: The adjuvanted recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV; Shingrix(R), GSK) is a subunit vaccine that has been approved for the prevention of herpes zoster in adults. Co-administration of two vaccines in a single visit is a strategy to improve overall vaccine coverage. OBJECTIVES: This review aims to consolidate available clinical data on RZV co-administration, providing an overview of safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity. METHODS: RZV co-administration data were obtained from five randomised, open-label, phase III clinical trials with similar study designs. The co-administered vaccines included: quadrivalent seasonal inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4; NCT01954251), 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23; NCT02045836), reduced-antigen-content diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap; NCT02052596), 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13; NCT03439657) and COVID-19 mRNA-1273 booster (NCT05047770). Eligible participants were healthy adults aged >/=50 years. RESULTS: A total of 3,974 participants were vaccinated (co-administration: 1,973; sequential: 2,001) across the five trials. Vaccine response rates to RZV were similar for co-administration (range: 95.8-99.1 %) and sequential groups (range: 95.1-99.1 %). Immune responses to RZV and the other vaccines (with the exception of pertactin) were non-inferior when the vaccines were co-administered compared with sequentially administered. Overall incidences of solicited local and general adverse events (AEs), unsolicited AEs, serious AEs or potential immune-mediated diseases were similar after co-administration or sequential administration. Myalgia was the most common solicited systemic AE (co-administration: 38-64 %; sequential: 30-59 %). Shivering and fever were more common after co-administration (16 % and 21 %, respectively) than after sequential administration (both 7 %) of RZV and PPSV23. CONCLUSIONS: Co-administration of RZV with routine vaccines does not significantly alter the reactogenicity, immunogenicity or safety of RZV or the co-administered vaccine. Healthcare practitioners should consider routine co-administration of RZV with other adult vaccines to improve vaccination coverage. CI - Copyright (c) 2024 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd..
