Brief summary

This study will evaluate the persistence of the immune response to HAV (hepatitis A virus) antigens and HBs (hepatitis B surface) antigens in healthy adults previously vaccinated with Twinrix Adult in the primary study, HAB-032 (208127/022). The subjects will be invited for blood sampling 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 years after the primary vaccination to evaluate the antibody persistence. For subjects in whom low circulating antibodies are detected, the presence of immune memory against hepatitis A & B antigens will be investigated by the administration of a challenge dose of the appropriate vaccine (Havrix and/or Engerix-B) at the next planned visit. No new subjects will be recruited during this study.

Interventions

PROCEDUREBlood sampling

Blood sampling at Year 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 and at the time of challenge dose administration and 14 days and one month after challenge dose administration (if challenge dose needed).

BIOLOGICALEngerix-B

Engerix-B will be administered to subjects who are not seroprotected against hepatitis B.

BIOLOGICALHavrix

Havrix will be administered to subjects who are seronegative for anti-HAV antibodies.

Subjects who received 3 doses of Twinrix (lot A, B or C) in the primary study. As lot to lot consistency was assessed during the primary study, the 3 groups (lot A, B or C) were pooled into the Twinrix Group for data analyses during the first long-term follow-up NCT00289718 and this long-term follow-up. A challenge dose of the Havrix or Engerix-B vaccines can be administered in this study based on serology results at each time point.
