Herpes Zoster Understanding


Herpes Zoster: Overview

Herpes zoster, also known as shingles, is a viral syndrome caused by reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus. After an episode of varicella (chicken-pox), the varicella-zoster virus remains dormant in the nervous system. Herpes zoster typically occurs in adults or elderly. It is believed that zoster occurs due to the failure of the immune defense system to control the latent replication of the virus. Upon reactivation, the virus replicates in neuronal cell bodies, and virions shed from the cells which are carried down the nerve to the area of skin innervated by that ganglion. In the skin, the virus causes local inflammation and blistering. The pain caused by zoster is due to inflammation of affected nerves with the virus. Zoster characteristically presents with a prodrome of fever, malaise, and excruciating burning pain followed by the outbreak of vesicles that appear in one to three crops over three to five days. Lesions are distributed unilaterally within a single dermatome. Herpes zoster is clinically diagnosed with burning pain, characteristic morphology, and typical distribution. Antiviral therapy hastens the resolution of lesions, decreases acute pain and helps to prevent post-herpetic neuralgia especially in elderly patients. Acyclovir 800 mg, five times daily for five days, valacyclovir 1 gm three times daily for five days, and famciclovir 500 mg three times daily for seven days are the antiviral drugs used to treat herpes zoster.

"Herpes Zoster - Pipeline Insight, 2021" report outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Herpes Zoster pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Herpes Zoster treatment guidelines.

Herpes Zoster Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Herpes Zoster report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Herpes Zoster Emerging Drugs

Varicella zoster virus vaccine: Changchun BCHT Biotechnology

Varicella zoster virus vaccine: Changchun BCHT Biotechnologyhangchun BCHT Biotechnology is developing live attenuated varicella vaccine for the prevention of varicella zoster virus infections and herpes zoster. It's a live attenuated herpes zoster vaccine based on the production process of live attenuated chickenpox vaccine. A Phase III clinical trial evaluated live attenuated zoster vaccine to prevent herpes zoster.

EG-HZ: EyeGene

EG-HZ: EyeGene varicella-zoster virus vaccine (EG HZ) is a non-live, recombinant subunit vaccine being developed by EyeGene to prevent herpes zoster caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV). The vaccine combines a recombinant antigen, glycoprotein E (VZVgE), and CIA05, an adjuvant system which is a non-toxic LOS-derived substance with optimal immunologic activity. A Phase I clinical trial evaluating the EG-HZ vaccine has been completed.

CRV1O1: Curevo Vaccine

CRV1O1: Curevo VaccineRV-101 is a next-generation shingles vaccine candidate designed to maximize the CMI protection by combining the gE protein antigen with our proprietary adjuvant. Curevo's CRV-101 is an investigational adjuvanted subunit vaccine for the indication of the prevention of Herpes Zoster in older adults. The adjuvanted subunit vaccine strategy contrasts with traditional approaches using live killed or attenuated viruses. Sub-unit vaccines do not contain virus components and cannot cause infection. The adjuvant component was specifically engineered to produce an optional immune response while using a smaller amount of adjuvant with a targeted structure-function approach. CRV101 is being developed in Phase I stage of development to treat Herpes Zoster.
