Last Updated: 2019-03-21

Results Overview

The primary outcome measure is the number of participants who have residual HB immunity 10 or 15 years after infant HB immunization, defined by a persistent anti-HBs titer \>12 IU/L.

Participant Flow

Screening for eligibility will be part of volunteer identification, with confirmation of eligibility to follow at the first in-person visit. A component of volunteer screening will be initiating a review of individual HBV immunization records.

Initially, 359 volunteers who met inclusion criteria where recruited, of whom 6 were deemed ineligible due to late disclosure of neonatal HBV vaccination (n=3), ineligible medical condition (n=2) or additional doses of HBV vaccine (n=1). Three early consent withdrawals resulted in 350 participants who underwent baseline testing.
