What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Anti-hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs) antibody concentrations

    Measured: One month after the full primary vaccination course and one month after the booster vaccination at 70 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Anti-HBs antibody concentrations

    Measured: Months 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 13, 42

  2. Serious adverse experiences (SAE).

    Measured: Throughout the study period

  3. Occurrence and intensity of solicited local symptoms

    Measured: 8-day follow-up after vaccination

  4. Occurrence, intensity and relationship of solicited general symptoms

    Measured: 8-day follow-up after vaccination

  5. Incidence of unsolicited symptoms

    Measured: During the 30-day follow-up after vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Engerix™-B and HBV-MPL vaccine in people with Hepatitis B, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jun 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Anti-hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs) antibody concentrations (time frame: One month after the full primary vaccination course and one month after the booster vaccination at 70 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Jun 2008.
