Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Senior group(over 65 years old)-HE
Anti-HEV IgG seronegative participants over 65 years old were enrolled. Hepatitis E vaccine, containing 30mcg of HEV239 recombinant antigen adsorbed to alum adjuvant suspended in 0.5ml phosphate buffer, was given at 0, 1, 6m for three doses.
Other Names:
  • Hecolin®
Active Comparator: Younger groups(16-65 years old)
Participants aged 16-65 years old were enrolled. Hepatitis E vaccine, containing 30mcg of HEV239 recombinant antigen adsorbed to alum adjuvant suspended in 0.5ml phosphate buffer, was given at 0, 1, 6m for three doses.
Other Names:
  • Hecolin®
No Intervention: Senior group(over 65 years old)-Cont
Anti-HEV IgG seropositive participants over 65 years old were enrolled. This is the safety control group, without any intervention.
