- Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with the
evaluations required by the study;

- Acute disease and/or fever at the time of enrollment;

Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this observer-blind study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and
immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' candidate Herpes Zoster (HZ) vaccine in adults aged = 50
years.

Two studies [ZOSTER-006 (NCT01165177) and ZOSTER-022 (NCT01165229)] are being conducted
concurrently to evaluate efficacy of GSK1437173A vaccine. A pooled analysis of data from both
studies combined will be conducted contingent on each study achieving its objectives. The
protocol posting of study ZOSTER-022 also deals with the outcome measures related to the
pooled analysis.
