About this study

Official title: A Study to Compare the Immunogenicity and Safety of GSK Biologicals Adjuvanted HBV Vaccine to Engerix™-B, in a Non-responder Population ≥ 15 Years of Age, When Administered Intramuscularly, According to a 0, 1, 2, 12 Month Schedule

Subjects who had not responded to previous hepatitis B vaccination were vaccinated with either the adjuvanted HBV-MPL vaccine or Engerix™-B vaccine according to a three-dose vaccination schedule (0, 1, 2 months) and boosted at Month 12 as per their group allocation. The immunogenicity and safety of the HBV-MPL vaccine were compared with the control vaccine, Engerix™-B.

What is being measured

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

  1. Anti-HBs antibody concentrations

    Measured: Months 1, 2 and 3

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Occurrence, intensity and relationship to vaccination of solicited local and general signs and symptoms

    Measured: During a 4 day follow-up period after vaccination

  2. Occurrence, intensity and relationship to vaccination of unsolicited signs and symptoms

    Measured: During a 30 day follow-up period after vaccination

  3. Occurrence, intensity and relationship to vaccination of serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: During the study period, up to and including 6 months post-vaccination

  4. Anti-HBs antibody concentrations in all subjects

    Measured: Months 1, 2, 3, 12 and 13

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing HBV-MPL vaccine 208129 and Engerix™-B in people with Hepatitis B, run by GlaxoSmithKline.

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 9 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 30 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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-HBs antibody concentrations (time frame: Months 1, 2 and 3). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00698061, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 30 May 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
