Hepatitis B
Conditions
Brief summary
This study will assess immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of primary and booster vaccination.
Detailed description
There will be two groups in this study: * one group will receive a birth dose of Pa vaccine and 3 doses of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine as primary vaccination and a dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine as booster vaccination * the control group will receive a birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine and 3 doses of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine as primary vaccination and a dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine as booster vaccination.

Inclusion criteria
For the primary vaccination phase * Healthy newborn male or female infant 2 to 5 days old at the time of the first vaccination & written informed consent taken from the parents/guardians of the subject * Born at term (gestational age 37-42 weeks) after an uncomplicated pregnancy * Birth weight \>= 2.5 kg and 5 minute Apgar \>= 7 * Mother seronegative for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) For the booster vaccination phase * A healthy male or female between, and including, 12 and 23 months of age at the time of booster vaccination who has completed the primary vaccination course in the primary vaccination phase with written informed consent obtained from the parent or guardian of the subject
Exclusion criteria
For the primary vaccination phase * Mother known or suspected to be seropositive for HIV (testing not required for inclusion) * Planned use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug or vaccine) other than the study vaccines during the study * Planned administration of immuno-suppressants or other immune-modifying drugs, administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products since birth or planned administration during the study. * Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products to the mother during pregnancy * Neonatal jaundice requiring parenteral treatment (light therapy for physiological jaundice is allowed) * At risk of pneumococcal disease or planning to receive Prevenar™ during the study period * Administration or planned administration of BCG vaccination during the study period * Acute disease at the time of vaccination. For the booster vaccination phase * Use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug or vaccine) other than the study vaccine within 30 days preceding the booster dose, or planned use during the booster phase. * Evidence of previous diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, hepatitis B and/or Hib booster vaccination since the study conclusion visit of the primary vaccination phase. * Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. * Administration/ planned administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol, administration/ planned administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products during the period starting 30 days before the administration of the booster dose and ending 30 days after the booster dose. * Chronic administration of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within six months prior to the booster vaccine dose.

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of seropositive subjects for anti-pertussis toxoids (PT), anti-filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) and anti-pertactin (PRN) antibodies | At Month 0 | A seropositive subject was defined a subject with antibody concentrations ≥ 5 EL.U/mL. |
| Antibody concentrations for anti-pertussis toxoids (PT), anti-filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) and anti-pertactin (PRN) antibodies | At Month 0 | Concentrations were expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) for the seropositivity cut-off of ≥ 5 EL.U/mL. |
| Modified vaccine response for anti-pertussis toxoids (PT), anti-filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) and anti-pertactin (PRN) antibodies | At Month 7 | Modified vaccine response was defined as: For initially seronegative subjects, antibody concentration 5 EL.U/mL at one month after the third dose of Infanrix hexa™. For initially seropositive subjects: antibody concentration at one month post vaccination 0.25 fold the pre-vaccination antibody concentration. |
| Number of seroprotected subjects for anti-Hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) antibodies | At Month 7 | A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with anti-HBs antibody concentrations ≥ 10 mIU/mL. |
| Antibody concentrations for anti-Hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) antibodies | At Month 7 | Concentrations were expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) for the seroprotection cut-off of ≥ 10 mIU/mL. |
| Number of seroprotected subjects for anti-diphtheria (anti-D) and anti-tetanus (anti-T) antibodies | At Month 7 | A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with anti-D and anti-T antibody concentrations ≥ 0.1 IU/mL. |
| Antibody concentrations for anti-diphtheria (anti-D) and anti-tetanus (anti-T) antibodies | At Month 7 | Concentrations were expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) for the seroprotection cut-off of ≥ 0.1 IU/mL. |
| Number of seroprotected subjects for anti-polyribosyl ribitol phosphate (anti-PRP) | At Month 7 | A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with anti-D and anti-T antibody concentrations ≥ 0.15 g/mL. |
| Antibody concentrations for anti-polyribosyl ribitol phosphate (anti-PRP) | At Month 7 | Concentrations were expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) for the seroprotection cut-off of ≥ 0.15 g/mL. |
| Number of subjects with solicited general symptoms | During the 8-day (Day 0-Day 7) follow-up period after the any dose and booster vaccination | The solicited local symptoms assessed were Drowsiness, Temperature (Fever), Irritability and Loss of appetite. Temperature = Fever ≥ 38.0 °C. Grade 3 drowsiness = drowsiness that prevented normal activity; Grade 3 irritability = crying that could not be comforted/prevented normal activity; Grade 3 loss of appetite = not eating at all; Grade 3 Temperature = \> 39.5 °C. Related = symptoms considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to vaccination. |
| Number of subjects with unsolicited adverse events (AES) | Occurring within Day 0-30 following primary and booster vaccination | An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. |
