Long-Term Immune Persistence of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' Inactivated Hepatitis A Vaccine Injected According to a 0, 12-month Schedule
- Conditions
- Hepatitis A
- Interventions
- Biological: Havrix™
- Registration Number
- NCT00291876
- Lead Sponsor
- GlaxoSmithKline
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the persistence of hepatitis A antibodies at 138, 150, 162, 174,186, 198, 210, 222, 234 and 246 months after subjects received their first dose of a 2 dose vaccination schedule of hepatitis A vaccine.
This protocol posting deals with objectives \& outcome measures of the extension phase at year 11 to 20.
No additional subjects will be recruited during this long-term follow-up.
- Detailed Description
This is a long-term follow-up study at Years 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 after primary vaccination with GSK Biologicals' hepatitis A vaccine (two-dose schedule). To evaluate the long-term antibody persistence, volunteers will donate a blood sample at Years 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 after the first vaccine dose of the primary vaccination course to determine their anti-hepatitis A (anti-HAV) antibody concentrations.
If a subject has become seronegative for anti-HAV antibodies during any of the long-term blood sampling time point (i.e. Months 138, 150, 162, 174,186, 198, 210, 222, 234 and 246), he/ she will be offered an additional vaccine dose. A blood sample will be taken on the day of the additional vaccination 14 days and one month after additional vaccination to evaluate the immune response following this vaccination.
The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007 and to extend the follow up until Year 20.
The study has 10 phases: 100571, 100572, 100573, 100574, 100575, 110677, 110678, 110679, 110680, 110681.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Anti-hepatitis A Virus (Anti-HAV) Antibody Concentration At Months 138, 150, 162, 174, 186, 198, 210, 222, 234 and 246 Concentrations given as geometric mean concentration (GMC) expressed as milli-international unit per millilitre (mIU/mL). \*\* = Regarding Month 234 data, please note that there were 5 subjects for whom serum sample tube was broken and thus due to risk of contamination the test were not performed. Hence these subjects were not included in the LT-ATP cohort for immunogenicity analysis at Month 234. $ = Regarding Month 246 data, please note there was 1 subject for whom serum sample tube was broken and hence scrapped by laboratory. Hence this subject was not included in the LT-ATP cohort for immunogenicity analysis at Month 246.
Number of Seropositive Subjects Against Hepatitis A Virus At Months 138, 150, 162, 174, 186, 198, 210, 222, 234 and 246 A seropositive subject was a vaccinated subject whose concentrations for antibodies against hepatitis A virus (anti-HAV) were equal or above (\>=) the assay cut-off for seropositivity of 15 milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL). \*\* = Regarding Month 234 data, please note that there were 5 subjects for whom serum sample tube was broken and thus due to risk of contamination the test were not performed. Hence these subjects were not included in the LT-ATP cohort for immunogenicity analysis at Month 234. $ = Regarding Month 246 data, please note there was 1 subject for whom serum sample tube was broken and hence scrapped by laboratory. Hence this subject was not included in the LT-ATP cohort for immunogenicity analysis at Month 246.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited General Symptoms During the 4-day (Days 0-3) follow-up period after additional vaccination Solicited general symptoms assessed include fatigue, fever, gastrointestinal symptoms and headache.
4 subjects received additional vaccination at Month 186 and 1 subject at Month 198.Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAE) Assessed by the Investigator as Related to Primary Study Vaccination, Procedures or Lack of Vaccine Efficacy At Months 138, 150, 162, 174, 186, 198, 210, 222, 234 and 246 An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that: results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject, or may evolve into one of the outcomes listed above
