Summary

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

Two co-primary objectives are:

* To demonstrate that the immunogenicity of ZOSTAVAX administered by intramuscular route (IM) is non-inferior to ZOSTAVAX administered by subcutaneous route (SC)
* To demonstrate that ZOSTAVAX administered by IM route induces an acceptable fold-rise of varicella zoster virus (VZV) antibody titre from pre to 4-week post-vaccination

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

Immunogenicity objectives

* To evaluate the immunogenicity as measured by VZV antibody titre at 4 weeks following ZOSTAVAX administered by IM or SC route
* To evaluate the immune response as measured by a second assay, the VZV Interferon gamma Enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) at 4 weeks following ZOSTAVAX administered by IM or SC route

Safety objective
