Comparison of the immunogenicity and safety of 3 inactivated hepatitis A vaccines in Korean children aged 12 to 18 months: An open-label, randomized, prospective, multicenter study.

Hong Seung Soo SS, Choi Ui Yoon UY, Ma Sang Hyuk SH, Lee Soo Young SY et al.

Several approved inactivated hepatitis A (HA) vaccines are available in Korea. These have been shown to be immunogenic and safe in European children; however, their immunogenicity and safety have not been investigated among Korean children. We aimed to compare the immunogenicity and safety of the most commonly used HA vaccines in ethnic Korean children aged 12 to 18 months.In this open-label, randomized, prospective, multicenter study, 108 children were enrolled and randomized to receive a pediatric form of Avaxim, Epaxal, or Havrix. The 2nd dose was administered after an interval of 6 months. Anti-HA virus (HAV) immunoglobulin (Ig) G was measured to assess geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) and seropositvity rates (≥20 mIU/mL anti-HAV IgG). To assess safety, local solicited adverse events (AEs), systemic solicited AEs, unsolicited AEs, and serious AEs (SAEs) were graded.Among the 108 participants enrolled, 37, 34, and 37 received Avaxim, Epaxal, and Havrix, respectively. After administration of 2 doses, the seropositivity rates in the Avaxim, Epaxal, and Havrix groups were all 100% (95% confidence intervals [CIs]: 99.0-100, 98.9-100, and 99.0-100, respectively; P < .001). The anti-HAV GMCs in the Avaxim, Epaxal, and Havrix groups were 5868.4 (95% CI: 4237.2-8126.6), 1962.1 (95% CI: 1298.0-2965.9), and 2232.9 mIU/mL (95% CI: 1428.4-3490.4), respectively, after administration of 2 doses (P < .001). There were no significant differences in the proportions of participants reporting local solicited AEs, systemic solicited AEs, unsolicited AEs, and SAEs among the 3 vaccine groups after the 1st and 2nd doses. All local solicited and unsolicited AEs were grade 1 or 2. Grade 3 systemic solicited AE occurred in 5.4% and 2.9% of the participants in the Havrix group after the 1st and 2nd doses, respectively. SAEs after the 1st and 2nd doses were reported in 2 participants and 1 participant, respectively, but none was assessed as being related to vaccination.The results indicate that these vaccines were safe and immunogenic in ethnic Korean children. The results have contributed to the establishing of an HA vaccination policy in Korea and will be informative to countries that plan to initiate vaccination programs against HAV.

Immunogenicity and estimation of antibody persistence following vaccination with an inactivated virosomal hepatitis A vaccine in adults: A 20-year follow-up study.

Chappuis Francois F, Farinelli Tiziana T, Deckx Henri H, Sarnecki Michal M et al.

This was a 20-year follow-up study to assess long-term persistence of protective antibody levels against the hepatitis A virus (HAV) in healthy participants vaccinated with 2 doses of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine (Epaxal®) between 1992 and 1995. Blood samples for anti-HAV antibody concentrations were obtained during a follow-up visit 20years after vaccination and were analyzed in parallel with samples still available from previous visits using AxSYM® HAVAB 2.0 assay. Mean (SD) age of the participants was 44.71 (3.905) years at year 20 follow-up (N=95). Participants completing 0/12-month Epaxal® immunization regimen (N=94) had seroprotection rate of 100% (95% CI: 96.2, 100.0) with ⩾10mIU/mL seropositivity cut-off and 98.9% (95% CI: 94.2, 100.0) with ⩾20mIU/mL cut-off. With ⩾10mIU/mL cut-off, the estimated median duration of protection was 77.3years (95% CI: 71.8, 83.5) with 95% of the vaccinated participants predicted to be protected for at least 41.5years. At ⩾20mIU/mL cut-off, the estimated median duration of protection was 64.8years (95% CI: 60.1, 68.4) with 95% of the vaccinated participants predicted to be protected for at least 33years. Anti-HAV antibody geometric mean concentrations were higher in women (277.9; 95% CI: 217.7, 354.7) than in men (167.7; 95% CI: 125.2, 224.6). The data from this 20-year follow-up study confirm previous observations that two doses of Epaxal® provide protection against hepatitis A infection for at least 30years in over 95% of healthy participants.

Long-term Serologic Follow-up of Children Vaccinated with a Pediatric Formulation of Virosomal Hepatitis A Vaccine Administered With Routine Childhood Vaccines at 12-15 Months of Age.

Dagan Ron R, Ashkenazi Shai S, Livni Gilat G, Go Oscar O et al.

The aim of this open-label, active-controlled, parallel group, phase 2 follow-up study was to assess the long-term immunogenicity of Epaxal Junior, the pediatric dose of an aluminum-free virosomal inactivated hepatitis A virus (HAV) vaccine, in children receiving routine childhood vaccines (RCV). Healthy children (12-15 months old, ≥8 kg weight) were randomized (1:1:1) to group A: Epaxal Junior + RCV (day 1); group B: Epaxal Junior (day 1) + RCV (day 29) and group C: Havrix 720 + RCV (day 1). All 3 groups received 2 doses of HAV vaccines 6 months apart. Children who completed the primary study were followed up from 18 months to 7.5 years post booster. Of 291/327 randomized children who had completed the primary study, 157 were followed for the 7.5-year analysis (group A: 50; group B: 54; and group C: 53). Of these, 152 children had protective levels of anti-HAV antibodies [≥10 mIU/mL; 98% (group A); 96.3% (group B); 96.2% (group C)]. Anti-HAV geometric mean concentrations were similar in groups A and B at all the time points (1.5-, 2.5-, 3.5-, 5.25- and 7.5-year time point) but slightly lower in group C. Predictions of the median duration of persistence of seroprotective antibody levels, using the linear mixed model were similar in all groups: (group A: 19.1 years, group B: 18.7 years, group C: 17.3 years). Immunization with Epaxal Junior administered with RCVs at 12 months elicited protective response beyond 7.5 years in almost all children. Assessing the kinetic of anti-HAV antibody titers decline over time, the moment to reach antibody concentrations below the accepted protective level may occur earlier than previously estimated.

Reappraisal of the Immunogenicity and Safety of Three Hepatitis A Vaccines in Adolescents.

Yoon Seo Hee SH, Kim Han Wool HW, Ahn Jong Gyun JG, Kim In Tae IT et al.

Although the overall incidence of hepatitis A in Korea has been decreasing, adolescents remain highly vulnerable to its outbreaks. This study was conducted to compare the immunogenicity and safety of three hepatitis A vaccines in Korean adolescents. Healthy anti-hepatitis A virus seronegative subjects aged 13 to 19 yr were randomized in three equal groups to receive two doses of Avaxim™, Epaxal®, or Havrix®, 6 to 12 months apart. Seroconversion rates one month after the first dose were 98%, 95%, and 93% for Avaxim™, Epaxal®, and Havrix®, respectively. Seroconversion rates reached 100% for all vaccine groups one month after the second dose. Anti-HAV geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) were 7,207.7 mIU/mL (95% CI, 6023.1-8684.7), 1,750.5 mIU/mL (95% CI, 1362.9-2248.3), and 1,953.5 mIU/mL (95% CI, 1459.4-2614.7) after two doses of Avaxim™, Epaxal®, and Havrix® respectively. Avaxim™ was significantly more immunogenic than Epaxal® and Havrix®, whereas there were no significant differences in antibody responses between Epaxal® and Havrix®. Local and systemic solicited adverse events (AEs) were mostly of mild-to-moderate intensity and resolved within 5 days. No serious AEs were reported. In conclusion, all three vaccines are highly immunogenic and well-tolerated in Korean adolescents. (Clinical Trial Registry NCT00483470).

Seropositivity among Korean Young Adults Approximately 2 Years after a Single-Dose Vaccination against Hepatitis A Virus.

Song Yeong-Jun YJ, Lim Jiseun J, Park Woong-Sub WS, Sohn Haesook H et al.

We previously observed 80.7% seropositivity and a significant interaction between gender and hepatitis A virus (HAV) vaccine type (Havrix vs. Epaxal) on the seropositivity approximately 11 months after single-dose HAV vaccinations in Korean young adults. Our objective was to evaluate seropositivity approximately 2 years after a single-dose HAV vaccination and the influence of demographic characteristics on seropositivity, including the interaction between gender and vaccine type. Seronegative medical school students were randomly vaccinated with Havrix or Epaxal. Based on a total serum anti-HAV antibody titer cutoff of 20 IU/mL, 338 participants (76.0%) of the 445 vaccinees were seropositive 20-25 months after a single-dose HAV vaccination. The seropositive rates were similar after vaccination with Havrix (77.0%) and Epaxal (74.9%). Univariate analysis indicated that female (p = 0.052) and less obese (p < 0.001) participants had a higher seropositive rate, whereas other characteristics such as age, alcohol use, smoking history, vaccine type, and follow-up duration were not associated with seropositivity. Multivariate analysis indicated that women (p = 0.026) and participants with moderate alcohol use (p < 0.001) showed significantly higher seropositive rates than men and participants with no or low alcohol use, respectively. The seropositive rates after vaccination with Havrix and Epaxal were 70.9% and 67.5% in men and 87.7% and 91.3% in women, respectively (p for interaction = 0.304). Compared with the seropositive rate approximately 11 months after vaccination, the seropositive rate decreased substantially only in men in the Havrix group (11.0% points), and consequently, the interaction between gender and vaccine type disappeared while seropositivity remained high (87.7% and 91.3% in Havrix and Epaxal groups, respectively) among women approximately 2 years after vaccination. Further studies are needed to assess whether the seropositive rate would be maintained in all groups more than 2 years after a single-dose HAV vaccination.

Long-term antibody persistence in children after vaccination with the pediatric formulation of an aluminum-free virosomal hepatitis A vaccine.

Van Herck Koen K, Hens Annick A, De Coster Ilse I, Vertruyen André A et al.

The pediatric dose of the virosomal hepatitis A vaccine Epaxal, Epaxal Junior, is safe and immunogenic in children from 1 to 17 years of age. The present study investigated the long-term immunogenicity of Epaxal Junior. The standard doses of Epaxal and aluminum-adsorbed hepatitis A vaccine (Havrix Junior) were used as comparators. A total of 271 children who had completed a 0/6-month immunization schedule (priming and booster dose) participated in this follow-up study. Anti-hepatitis A virus (HAV) antibody levels were measured using a microparticle enzyme immunoassay (HAVAB 2.0 Quantitative; Abbott Diagnostics, Wiesbaden, Germany) starting at 18 months following the second dose, and then yearly until 66 months (ie, 5.5 years) after the second dose. All subjects tested at Month 66 still had protective anti-HAV antibodies (≥10 mIU/mL). Antibody titers were generally lower in subjects 1-7 years old than in subjects 8-17 years old and higher in females 11-17 years old than in males 11-17 years old. In addition, an age-dependent decay was observed, that is, antibody decreased more rapidly in younger than in older children. Vaccination of children with two doses of Epaxal Junior confers a real-time protection of at least 5.5 years. This protection is estimated to last approximately 25 years. Younger children showed lower antibody titers and a faster antibody decline than older children. Additional follow-up studies are needed beyond 5.5 years to further assess the long-term immunogenicity of Epaxal Junior.
