Previously, the only vaccination available for shingles was Zostavax, which is an attenuated live virus vaccine, contraindicated for patients with immunodeficiency or immunosuppression. The more recently approved Shingrix vaccine is a recombinant protein and can be given to patients with cancer even if they are receiving or have recently received radiation or chemotherapy. Please see CDC web site for more info: https://www.cdc.gov/shingles/vaccination.html
Hello and hope you are doing well.
Shingles vaccine is a live vaccine and is not recommended for people who are undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Honestly if you're immunocompromised I suggest not doing the study. If you are not, I suggest asking your oncologist first.
