Comparing Immunogenicity and Safety of Different Formulations of HBV-MPL Vaccine With Engerix™-B in Adults Aged 19-40 y

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Hepatitis B
Interventions
Biological: HBV-MPL vaccine
Biological: Engerix™-B
Registration Number
NCT00698906
Lead Sponsor
GlaxoSmithKline
Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of different formulations of the HBV-MPL vaccine administered according to a 2-dose schedule and compare it to that of Engerix™-B administered according to a 3-dose schedule in order to determine the optimal dose of each component of the candidate HBV-MPL vaccine when administered at 0 and 6 months

Detailed Description

At the time of conduct of this study, the sponsor GlaxoSmithKline was known by its former name SmithKline Beecham
