About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of Intradermal Compare to Intramuscular Hepatitis B Vaccination in HIV Children

The purpose of this study is :

  • To evaluate prevalence of protective hepatitis B antibody comparing intradermal (ID) and intramuscular (IM) route in antiHbsAb negative HIV infected children treated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)
  • To revaccinate the HBV vaccine in the children who didn't have protective HBV Ab
Read the detailed description

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and HIV share the same route of transmission and can have co-infection. The prevalence of this co-infection was 8.7% in Thai adult[1, 2] and 12.1% in African HIV vertically transmitted children[3]. Occurrence of HBV has effects to treatment due to having the same medication, lamivudine, tenofovir, emtricitabine or entecavir, to anti HIV medication. HBV can cause chronic liver disease, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

In Thailand, the routine HBV vaccination program was started since 1992. Few reports in severe immune compromise HIV children has been shown to lose their expected preventive measles and hepatitis B antibody from history of scheduled vaccination even after the immune recovery by HAART[4, 5]. Limited data in of prevalence of protective hepatitis B antibody response after immune recovery in Thai HIV infected children treated with highly active antiretroviral therapy. In addition, HBV revaccination in this group of children should be considered[6].

The response of HBV revaccination intramuscularly (IM) at 0, 2 and 6 months in 63 HIV children shown response rates 17.4, 82.5, and 92.1% at 2, 6 and 7 months respectively[6]. Protective anti-HBs were shown in the majority of non-responders to IM HBV vaccine health care workers [21/23 (91.3%)] by two doses of intradermal route (ID)[7].

We hypothesize to see the faster and higher response of antiHBs after first dose of ID compare to IM in anti HBsAb negative HIV infected children. No randomized control trial compare antibody response between IM and ID route in HIV children after immune recovery. The benefit from this trial would be decreased the vaccine cost for resourced limited country.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Intradermal HBV 1 courseBiological

    Dosage: 2 microgram (mcg), 0.1 ml per dose

    Location: left deltoid area x 1 injection

    Common reactions: local pain, low grade fever, small hyperpigmented induration (granulomatous reaction) which may last up to 6-12 months

  • Intramuscular HBV I courseBiological

    Dosage: 2 microgram (mcg), 0.1 ml per dose

    Location: left deltoid area x 1 injection

    Common reactions: local pain, low grade fever, small hyperpigmented induration (granulomatous reaction) which may last up to 6-12 months

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of children with protective antiHBs at 8 weeks after first dose of HBV ID is superior to HBV IM

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Proportion of children with positive antiHBs at 4 weeks after second and third dose of HBV

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Number of adverse events in HBV ID group and HBV IM group

    Measured: 7 months

  3. Proportion of protective antiHBs in HIV children after protocol defining immune recovery

    Measured: 7 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Intradermal HBV 1 course and Intramuscular HBV I course in people with HIV Infections, run by The HIV Netherlands Australia Thailand Research Collaboration at 2 sites in Thailand.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 17 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Thailand. 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?

Proportion of children with protective antiHBs at 8 weeks after first dose of HBV ID is superior to HBV IM (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 17 Jul 2020.
