This Study Will Evaluate the Persistence of Hepatitis A Antibodies, 8 Years and 10 Years Later, in Children Who Had Received Havrix at Selected Health Centres of Panama

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Hepatitis A Vaccine
Interventions
Other: Blood sample collection
Registration Number
NCT02712359
Lead Sponsor
GlaxoSmithKline
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the persistence of hepatitis A antibodies, approximately 8 years and 10 years post vaccination with the complete series of Havrix (2 doses) and the partial series completion (1 dose).

Detailed Description

The study comprises of two independent cross-sectional surveys (Year 8 and Year 10). The first cross-sectional serosurvey will evaluate the long term persistence of immunity approximately 8 years post vaccine administration and the second cross-sectional study will evaluate long term persistence, approximately 10 years post vaccine administration.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Subjects With Anti-hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Seropositivity Status at Approximately 8 Years Following Last Administered Havrix DoseAt approximately 8 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 milli-international unit/milliliter (mIU/mL).

Number of Subjects With Anti-HAV Seropositivity Status at Approximately 10 Years Following Last Administered Havrix DoseAt approximately 10 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Anti-HAV Antibody Concentrations at Approximately 8 Years Following Last Administered Havrix DoseAt approximately 8 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Anti-HAV antibody concentrations were measured by ELISA, expressed as GMCs, in mIU/mL. The cut-off of the assay was an anti-HAV antibody concentration equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

Anti-HAV Antibody Concentrations at Approximately 10 Years Following Last Administered Havrix DoseAt approximately 10 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Anti-HAV antibody concentrations were measured by ELISA, expressed as GMCs, in mIU/mL. The cut-off of the assay was an anti-HAV antibody concentration equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

Number of Subjects With Anti-HAV Antibody Concentration ≥ 15 mIU/mL at Approximately 8 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose - Exploration of Non-inferiority of the 1-dose Schedule Compared to the 2-dose Schedule of HavrixAt approximately 8 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

Number of Subjects With Anti-HAV Antibody Concentrations ≥ 15 mIU/mL at Approximately 10 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose - Exploration of Non-inferiority of the 1-dose Schedule Compared to the 2-dose Schedule of HavrixAt approximately 10 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.
