Filter by:The current study will evaluate immunological memory to hepatitis B antigen in subjects who received primary neonatal vaccination of hepatitis B vaccine (Engerix™-B ), 20 years ago in the primary study and who have anti-HBs antibody concentrations < pre-defined cut-off values at the previous long-term time point. All participating subjects will receive a challenge dose of hepatitis B vaccine. Subjects will be aged approximately 20-21 years at the time of this study. No new subjects will be recruited in this long-term follow-up study. Blood sampling will be done one month after the administration of the challenge dose. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
The current extension study will assess the persistence of anti-HBs antibodies at Months 12, 24 and 36 after primary vaccination with Henogen's HBV vaccine or Fendrix™. This protocol posting deals with the objectives & outcome measures of the extension phase at Months 12, 24 and 36. The objectives & outcome measures of the primary phase are presented in a separate protocol posting (NCT00291941).
This 2 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of intermittent treatment with PEGASYS in HBeAg negative patients with chronic hepatitis B who have demonstrated virological and biochemical response after treatment with interferon alfa. After 48 weeks therapy with interferon alfa, and 24 weeks treatment-free follow-up, eligible patients will be randomized into the PEGASYS or the observational group. Those in the PEGASYS group will receive 4 therapeutic cycles of long term intermittent treatment with PEGASYS (135 micrograms sc weekly for 12 weeks, followed by a treatment-free period of 12 weeks) and those in the observational arm will receive no specific antiviral treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 100 individuals.
This 48-week open-label study of local manufactured adefovir dipivoxil Tablet evaluates the efficacy and safety of adefovir 10mg once daily in Chinese subjects with compensated CHB. Primary endpoint is proportion of subjects achieving HBV DNA undetectable (<=1000 copies/mL by by Roche COBAS AMPLICOR HBV MONITOR Test) at week 48. Approximately 1250 patients will be recruited in 30 study centers in China. The subjects are offered 48 weeks of open label adefovir dipivoxil treatment, with assessments every three months, after with is a 12-week post study treatment follow-up prior to study completion.
To determine if there is an improvement in the immune response to HBsAg (hepatitis B virus) in healthy infants using a modified process in a combination Haemophilus Influenzae, type b/Hepatitis B vaccine and a currently licensed Haemophilus Influenzae, type b/Hepatitis B vaccine
The purpose of this trial is to determine if there is an improvement in the immune response of older adults over 50 years of age using a modified process hepatitis B vaccine and a currently licensed hepatitis B vaccine (RECOMBIVAX HB™).
To describe the immunogenicity and safety of modified process hepatitis B vaccine administered to renal predialysis and dialysis patients
This single arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of PEGASYS in treatment-naive Baltic patients with HBeAg-positive chronic HBV. All patients will receive PEGASYS 180 micrograms s.c. once weekly. Following 48 weeks of treatment, there will be a 24 week period of treatment-free follow-up. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
This 4 arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of PEGASYS given for 24 or 48 weeks, and at doses of 90 or 180 micrograms weekly, in the treatment of HBeAg positive patients with chronic hepatitis B. Patients will be randomized to one of 4 treatment groups: a)PEGASYS 90 micrograms subcutaneous (sc) weekly for 24 weeks, b)PEGASYS 180 micrograms sc weekly for 24 weeks, c)PEGASYS 90 micrograms sc weekly for 48 weeks or d)PEGASYS 180 micrograms sc weekly for 48 weeks. Following treatment there will be a 24 week period of treatment-free follow-up in all treatment groups for the primary endpoint. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
The purpose of this study is to find out if a new investigational hepatitis B virus vaccine, HEPLISAV™, is safe and effective compared with Engerix-B® vaccine in subjects 11-55 years old. The primary hypothesis is that the seroprotective immune response of HEPLISAV™ is at least as good as that of Engerix-B®.
