Learning Objectives
  • Discuss the natural history and public health
    burden of herpes zoster and postherpetic
    neuralgia (PHN)
  • Review the benefits and limitations of current
    treatment options for herpes zoster and PHN
  • Evaluate clinical trial data on the efficacy and
    safety of herpes zoster vaccination

7
Low Adult Immunization Rates
  • Only 2 of adults 60 years of age received
    herpes zoster vaccination in its first year of
    availability (2006)
  • Only 2 of adults aged 18 to 64 years reported
    receiving Tdap
  • 44 of adults gt65 years of age reported receiving
    tetanus vaccination in the previous decade
  • Only 10 of women aged 18 to 26 years reported
    receiving at least 1 dose of the 3-dose human
    papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine course

Case Study
11
Case Study 1
  • A 61-year-old woman was recently diagnosed with
    cancer in her left breast and underwent port
    placement for chemotherapy. Several days later
    she developed burning, itching, and severe pain
    on her left chest (near the port site), arm, and
    back
  • A few days later, she developed a vesicular rash
  • She was unable to sleep because of excruciating
    discomfort
  • She cannot tolerate even contact with clothing
    to the affected area

Postherpetic Neuralgia
  • Chronic neuropathic pain that persists or
    develops after herpes zoster rash has healed1
  • Recent definitions include pain 90-120 days after
    rash onset1,3
  • Clinical features of PHN include2
  • Constant aching and burning, intermittent
    lancinating or stabbing pain, allodynia,
    hyperpathia
  • Risk factors include3
  • Advancing age, severity of acute pain and rash,
    painful prodrome, and number of affected
    dermatomes
  • Incidence and duration increase with advancing
    age4

Diagnosis of Herpes Zoster
21
Acute Herpes Zoster Clinical Manifestations
  • Prodrome of dermatomal pain 2-5 days
  • Rash characteristics
  • Initially maculopapular, then vesicular with an
    erythematous base
  • Unilateral, although can slightly overlap midline
  • Usually involves 1 or 2 dermatomes
  • May be associated with pain or other abnormal
    sensations
  • Evolves over 7-10 days, healing over next 2-4
    weeks
  • Reactivation may involve pain without rash
    (zoster sine herpete)

Pitfalls in Diagnosis
  • Prodrome of acute pain and paresthesias may be
    mistaken for other painful conditions
  • Migraine, glaucoma, myocardial infarction,
    pleurisy, duodenal ulcer, cholecystitis,
    appendicitis, and biliary or renal colic
  • Rash can appear similar to other rashes
  • Zosteriform herpes simplex is the most frequent
    error in diagnosis
  • Can be linear, but heals more rapidly, is likely
    to have less pain, and may recur in same area
  • If indicated, only reliable way to distinguish
    between the two is with laboratory testing (PCR,
    culture, IFA)
  • Occasional confusion with contact dermatitis

Treatment Strategies for Herpes Zoster and PHN
29
Case Study 1 (contd)
  • The patient was started on
  • Valacyclovir 1000 mg 3 times per day for 7 days
  • Oxycodone 10 mg/acetaminophen 650 mg every 4-6
    hours as needed
  • Gabapentin 300 mg, titrated up to 300 mg tid
    over the next 2 weeks
  • Silver sulfadiazine cream applied 1-2 times per
    day, and diphenhydramine 25 mg every 6 hours as
    needed for itching

Pharmacologic Management of Herpes Zoster
Antivirals
  • Most widely used treatment
  • Nucleoside analogs block viral replication1 and
    promote rash healing2
  • 3 agents available
  • Acyclovir3 800 mg 5x per day, 7-10 days
  • Famciclovir4 500 mg q8h, 7 days
  • Valacyclovir5 1000 mg 3x per day, 7 days
  • Shown to accelerate rash healing and resolution
    of acute pain (days 1-30)1
  • Effective when administered within 72 hours of
    rash onset efficacy beyond 72 hours is
    unknown1,6
  • Do not reliably prevent PHN1,6

Case Study 1 (contd)
  • The patients rash resolved about 1 month after
    initial onset, but she is still experiencing
    discomfort in the same area. She returns to the
    clinic several times over the course of the next
    6 months, during which time gabapentin was
    titrated up slowly to 2400 mg per day in divided
    doses and opioid medication was discontinued, as
    she no longer required it
  • She presents again 7 months after rash onset
    because her pain has increased. She ran out of
    gabapentin 2 weeks ago

35
Treatments for PHN Pain Response and Adverse
Event Profiles
Gabapentin, pregabalin, lidocaine patch 5, and
topical capsaicin are approved by the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of
PHN. 1Rowbotham M et al. JAMA. 19982801837-1842

36
Limitations of PHN Treatments
  • PHN is difficult to treat
  • Therapy does not work for every patient
  • Effect of therapy is often modest
  • Therapy must be individualized
  • Introduce and modify treatments sequentially to
    determine their efficacy and tolerability
  • Titrate dose so benefits exceed side effects
  • Introduce treatments separately

Comorbid illness, the risk of drug interactions,
and side effects must be considered when treating
elderly patients with PHN

  • http//www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/vis/vis-facts.htm
  • Develop office protocols
  • Assess each patients vaccination status
  • Administer and document vaccinations properly
  • Implement strategies to improve vaccination rates
  • eg, patient reminders
  • Facilitate patient access to recommended
    vaccinations
  • Identify and minimize office barriers
  • If needed, refer patients to other facilities
    offering vaccines
  • Health centers, travel clinics, infectious
    disease specialists

ACIP Guidance on What Constitutes Being Immune
Suppressed
  • Corticosteroids a dose equivalent to either gt2
    mg/kg of body weight or 20 mg/d of prednisone for
    gt2 weeks raises concern about the safety of
    vaccination with live-virus vaccines
  • Individuals receiving chemotherapy or radiation
    for leukemia, other hematopoietic malignancies,
    or solid tumors
  • Live-attenuated vaccines should not be
    administered for at least 3 months after such
    immunosuppression or chemotherapy

ImmunizationDecember 2006.
54
The Herpes Zoster Vaccine and Inactivated
Influenza Vaccine Can Be Administered
Concomitantly
  • Herpes zoster vaccine can be given with the
    influenza vaccine
  • Clinical data have shown both vaccines to
    demonstrate immunogenicity when administered
    concomitantly compared with individual
    administration

    no children
  • Medical history no prior herpes zoster claims
    she has never had chickenpox

57
Which of the following is a true statement
concerning this patient?
?
DECISION POINT
  • She should not receive the herpes zoster vaccine
  • She should not receive the herpes zoster vaccine
    until she receives 2 doses of the varicella
    vaccine
  • She should have varicella titers taken first and,
    if positive,
    may receive the herpes zoster

Should the Herpes Zoster Vaccine Be Given to
Patients With Unknown Chickenpox History?
  • VZV seropositivity rate among Americans 60 years
    of age is gt991
  • Most patients who do not recall history of
    chickenpox are VZV seropositive
  • Serologic testing was not an entry requirement
    for the Shingles Prevention Study
  • Data have shown herpes zoster vaccination to be
    safe in VZV-seronegative patients2
  • VZV serologic testing is not recommended prior
    to receiving herpes zoster vaccine

Q A
61
PCE Takeaways
62
PCE Takeaways
  • Incidence and severity of herpes zoster increase
    with advancing age to produce substantial
    negative effects on quality of life
  • Antiviral therapy may reduce the incidence and
    severity of acute herpes zoster, but does not
    reliably prevent PHN
  • Herpes zoster vaccination offers a safe and
    highly effective method of reducing the public
    health care burden of herpes zoster and its
    complications

63
PCE Takeaways (contd)
  • The ACIP recommends vaccination of
    immunocompetent individuals 60 years of age
    regardless of previous history of herpes zoster
  • The CDC has included the herpes zoster vaccine
    in the 2007-2008 Recommended Adult Immunization
    Schedule

administer the herpes zoster vaccine to your
