| Main Objective: Does a course of Fendrix (GSK) as compared to double-dose Engerix B (GSK) hepatitis B (HBV) vaccine result in a higher proportion of individuals serocoverting with Hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) levels >100, in HIV-infected previous non-responders to standard HBV vaccine courses?;Secondary Objective: Are HBV-specific CD4+ T-cell responses of greater magnitude present following vaccination with Fendrix as compared to double-dose Engerix B vaccine, thus potentially providing greater T-cell help to the B-cell mediated antibody response?;Primary end point(s): HBsAb titre at 8 weeks following the completion of the vaccination course (week 16 for double-dose Engerix B and week 32 for Fendrix). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 8 weeks following completion of the vaccination course;Main Objective: Does a course of Fendrix (GSK) as compared to double-dose Engerix B (GSK) hepatitis B (HBV) vaccine result in a higher proportion of individuals serocoverting with Hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) levels >100, in HIV-infected previous non-responders to standard HBV vaccine courses?;Secondary Objective: Are HBV-specific CD4+ T-cell responses of greater magnitude present following vaccination with Fendrix as compared to double-dose Engerix B vaccine, thus potentially providing greater T-cell help to the B-cell mediated antibody response?;Primary end point(s): HBsAb titre at 8 weeks following the completion of the vaccination course (week 16 for double-dose Engerix B and week 32 for Fendrix). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 8 weeks following completion of the vaccination course;Main Objective: Does a course of Fendrix (GSK) as compared to double-dose Engerix B (GSK) hepatitis B (HBV) vaccine result in a higher proportion of individuals serocoverting with Hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) levels >100, in HIV-infected previous non-responders to standard HBV vaccine courses?;Secondary Objective: Are HBV-specific CD4+ T-cell respo | — |
