Long-Term Follow-Up Studies at Year 6, 7, 8, 9, 10: 2 Formulations of Combined Hepatitis A/B Vaccine Compared in Subjects Aged 12-15 Years
- Conditions
- Hepatitis BHepatitis A
- Interventions
- Biological: Twinrix™ AdultBiological: Twinrix™ Junior
- Registration Number
- NCT00197119
- Lead Sponsor
- GlaxoSmithKline
- Brief Summary
To evaluate the persistence of anti-hepatitis A virus (anti-HAV) and anti-hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) antibodies up to 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 years after administration of the first dose of the study vaccine.
- Detailed Description
Open, randomized, long-term antibody persistence studies. Immune persistence was compared between subjects who received one of the two formulations of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' combined hepatitis A and hepatitis B vaccine according to a two-dose or three-dose schedule. These long-term follow-up studies involved taking blood samples at approximately 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 years after the primary vaccination of combined hepatitis A and B vaccine, to assess antibody persistence and a retrospective safety follow-up.
The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Subjects With Anti-Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBs) Antibody Concentrations Above the Cut-Off Value Year 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 after the first vaccine dose of a two-dose or three-dose primary vaccination Anti-HBs antibody concentration cut-off value assessed was ≥ 3.3 mIU/mL.
Number of Subjects With Anti-hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Antibody Concentrations Above the Cut-off Value Year 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 after the first vaccine dose of a two-dose or three-dose primary vaccination Anti-HAV antibody concentration cut-off value assessed was ≥ 15 milli-International Units per milliliter (mIU/mL).
Serious Adverse Events (SAE) Causally Related to Primary Vaccination or Related to Hepatitis A or B Infection or Related to Study Participation (Blood Sampling) From Year 6 through to Year 10 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.
