Abstract:
Objective To investigate the revaccination efficacy of different dosages of hepatitis B vaccine among adult non-and hyporesponders so as to improve the protection rate of hepatitis B vaccination.Methods The healthy adults who were immunized with hepatitis B vaccine at least one standard scheme in two years and negative for hepatitis B markers were enrolled in this randomized and open-label study.The hepatitis B vaccine was injected intramuscularly in the deltoid muscle on an upper arm according to routine schedule (month 0,1,6).The adults were randomly given four different dosages:73 in group A were given hepatitis B vaccine 10 μg (made in China) each time;69 in group B were given hepatitis B vaccine (made in China) 20 μg each time;70 in group C were given gene recombinant yeast hepatitis B vaccine (Engerix) 20 μg each time and 48 in group D were given gene recombinant yeast hepatitis B vaccine 40 μg each time.The serum anti-HBs was tested before and 1,2,8,12 months after the first injection.The comparison of means was done by one-factor analysis of variance and the comparison of rates was done by chi square test.Results The anti-HBs positive rates were the highest at months 8 of re-immunization in group B,C and D,which were 68.1%,70.0% and 77.1%,respectively,and were all higher than that in group A (53.4%)(χ2=21.465,P<0.01).The anti-HBs positive rate increased in group B,C and D with increasing immunized times and over time,but there was no significant difference;it went down at 12 months after re-immunization.The anti-HBs positive rates at 1,2,8 and 12 months after re-immunization in group A were 8.2%,19.2%,53.4% and 43.8%,respectively and differences were significant (χ2=53.07,P<0.01).The anti-HBs levels in group B,C and D were all higher than that of group A(F=7.551,P<0.05) at month 12 of re-immunization.There were no significant differences of anti-HBs levels at different re-immunization time points in group B,C and D.Conclusion Revaecination of hepatitis B vaccine can induce immune responses and increasing dosages can improve the immune efficacy in non- and hyporesponders.
