Compare the Immune Response & Safety Elicited by Henogen's Adjuvanted Hepatitis B Vaccine vs Aventis Pasteur MSD's Hepatitis B Vaccine in Pre-Dialysis & Dialysis Patients Who Did Not Respond to Previous Hepatitis B Vaccination

August 27, 2008 updated by: Henogen

A Multicentric, Randomised Study Comparing the Immunogenicity and Safety of Henogen's Adjuvanted Hepatitis B Vaccine Given at 0, 1months to That of Aventis Pasteur MSD's Hepatitis B Given at 0, 1 Months in Pre-Dialysis, and Dialysis Patients Did Not Respond to Previous Hepatitis B Vaccination

Hepatitis B prevention in non-responders uraemic patients is currently based on both HBsAg surveillance and the isolation from HBsAg carriers. A more immunogenic vaccine would be a benefit for this population.
