GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Varicella Zoster (HHV-3) Infections overview

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV), also known as human herpesvirus 3 (HHV-3), causes two distinct infections: chickenpox (varicella) and shingles (herpes zoster). Varicella is a highly contagious viral infection characterized by an itchy rash with red spots and fluid-filled blisters that break open and form scabs. It spreads through respiratory droplets and direct contact with the rash. Varicella commonly affects children, and symptoms besides the rash include fever, fatigue, and loss of appetite. The illness usually resolves within 1-2 weeks. However, after the primary infection of chickenpox, VZV can remain dormant in nerve cells. Later in life or when the immune system weakens, the virus may reactivate, causing shingles. Shingles manifests as a painful rash that typically appears on one side of the body, often in a band-like pattern along a nerve pathway. Other symptoms may include burning, tingling, or shooting pain. It usually lasts for several weeks.
