Filter by:This study will evaluate the immune response against Hepatitis-A (HAV) and Hepatitis B surface (HBs) antigen in healthy subjects aged 12 to 15 years (at the time of primary vaccination), who received vaccination course with GSK Biologicals' Twinrix Adult and Twinrix Junior vaccine, approximately 10 years ago in the primary study. The subjects will be invited for blood sampling at 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 years after primary vaccination to evaluate the persistence of immune response. For subjects detected with decreased immunity, the presence of immune memory against hepatitis A & B antigens will be investigated by the administration of a challenge dose of the appropriate vaccine 6 to 12 months after the Year 15 follow-up time-point. No new subjects will be recruited during this booster phase of the study.
The UK immunisation guidelines recommend that children immunised with an accelerated course of hepatitis B vaccine (i.e. vaccination at 0, 1, 2 and 12 months) receive an additional booster dose of vaccine in later childhood (usually at 3 1/2 years of age). The primary objective of this study is to to assess what proportion of these children have 'protective' concentrations (10mIU/ml) of hepatitis B specific antibodies before and after the booster dose of hepatitis B vaccine.
The purpose is to evaluate efficacy and safety of therapeutic Hepatitis B Virus（HBV） vaccine (mimogen-based) treatment in chronic hepatitis B patients and to explore the most effective dosage and provide the rational for optimal dosing schedule.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Adefovir Dipivoxil is effective and safe in treatment of Chinese Patients with HBeAg positive Chronic Hepatitis B for 5 years.
The goal of the proposed study is to use the HBV vaccine as a model for a future HIV vaccine trial, examining the efficacy of community-based outreach intervention as well as an accelerated vaccine schedule as a method for increasing acceptance/adherence with HBV vaccination protocols among not-in-treatment drug users. This study will also examine the effect of HBV vaccination coupled with community-based outreach intervention on reducing the incidence of HIV, HBV and HCV infections and the frequency of needle use and sexual risk behaviors related to these viral transmissions. A secondary purpose will be to assess the antibody response after HBV vaccination as a measurement of immunological response in drug users.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether protective anti-HB serum levels are maintained after 6 months of uninterrupted treatment with IGIV-HB Grifols, a new specific hepatitis B immune globulin, in patients having previously undergone liver transplantation.
A primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is generally regarded as unresectable if the future liver remnant (FLR)≤40％ of total liver volume in patient with underlying liver disease, such as hepatitis B. In China, TACE is the most common treatment for these unresectable HCC. Recently, PVE has been employed to enlarge the FLR of the patients so as to increase the resectability and surgical safety of major hepatectomies. In order to shut the arterio-portal shunt in the liver and control the tumor progress TACE sometimes is performed before PVE. In this study we design a randomized control trial to investigate the efficacy of sequential TACE and PVE on increasing the resectability of hepatitis B related HCC compared with TACE alone.
The study aims to confirm that, in Peruvian infants, the investigational DTaP-IPV Hep B-PRP~T vaccine has immunological and safety profiles that are comparable to those of the control vaccine that is already marketed (Infanrix®Hexa) Primary Objective: To demonstrate that the hexavalent DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T combined vaccine induces an immune response that is at least as good as the response following Infanrix®Hexa in terms of seroprotection rates to HB, one month after a three-dose primary series (2, 4 and 6 months) Secondary Objectives: - To describe in each group the immunogenicity to vaccine components (for DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T and Infanrix®Hexa) one month after the third dose of the primary series. - To assess the overall safety in each group one month after each dose of the primary series and through the entire study.
This study is working to research the efficacy and significant of the anti-virus therapy in the unresectable Hepatitis B virus (HBV) related primary liver cancer(PLC) so as to establish treatment standards of anti-virus therapy in PLC.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of 12 weeks of treatment with telbivudine 600 mg daily plus tenofovir DF 300 mg one daily (OD) taken together vs. tenofovir DF 300 mg once daily (QD) or vs telbivudine 600 mg monotherapy daily (QD). This is an open labeled, active controlled, viral kinetics study which means the subjects and study doctor will know what study drug subjects have been assigned. This study is open to male and female subjects, <40 years of age, who have been infected with HBV for at least 6 months and have not received oral treatment for HBV.
