Hepatitis A Vaccine
Brief summary
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity after one primary dose and one additional dose (administered twice at an interval of 6 months) of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine are administered in adolescents (16 years of age or older) or adults.
Detailed description
For this, a two-group comparison study will be conducted using a previously approved inactivated hepatitis A vaccine (Havrix Inj., manufactured by GSK) as the control vaccine to prove that the immunogenicity of the test vaccine treatment group is not inferior to the control vaccine treatment group and to statistically confirm that there is no difference in safety.
Interventions
A single dose of the test vaccine or the control vaccine in the form of pre-filled syringe is injected intramuscularly into the deltoid muscle (not to be injected into the gluteal region), and additional vaccination is performed using the same vaccine and the same method at 6 months after the first vaccination.
