Overview

The herpes zoster vaccine developed by Jiangsu gdk Biotechnology is a prophylactic vaccine designed to prevent shingles (herpes zoster) in adults. It targets the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which remains latent in the nervous system following a primary varicella infection. The vaccine is formulated as a live-attenuated virus preparation that works by inducing a protective immune response, specifically boosting VZV-specific cell-mediated immunity. This enhancement of the immune system helps to suppress the reactivation of the latent virus in the sensory ganglia, thereby preventing the clinical manifestation of shingles. While Jiangsu gdk Biotechnology is primarily known for its quadrivalent influenza vaccines, this shingles vaccine is a key component of its pipeline focused on viral diseases affecting the elderly population.
