Background: Herpes-zoster is common in HIV-infected patients in spite of antiretroviral therapy. We evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of a live attenuated varicella-zoster virus (VZV) vaccine as a candidate for protecting HIV-infected adults against herpes-zoster. Methods: HIV-infected adults with CD4 ≥400 cells/µL and plasma HIV RNA
