To Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of Inactivated Hepatitis A Vaccine (VITHA-A)

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Hepatitis A Vaccine
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03654677
Lead Sponsor
Boryung Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity after one primary dose and one additional dose (administered twice at an interval of 6 months) of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine are administered in adolescents (16 years of age or older) or adults.

Detailed Description

For this, a two-group comparison study will be conducted using a previously approved inactivated hepatitis A vaccine (Havrix Inj., manufactured by GSK) as the control vaccine to prove that the immunogenicity of the test vaccine treatment group is not inferior to the control vaccine treatment group and to statistically confirm that there is no difference in safety.
