Study Details

Study Description

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.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: inactivated hepatitis A vaccine
  • Biological: Havrix Inj
Phase 3

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.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: inactivated hepatitis A vaccine

Inactivated hepatitis A virus antigen 500U(Name of viral strain: TZ84)

Biological: inactivated hepatitis A vaccine
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.

Active Comparator: Havrix Inj

1440 ELISA/mL_Adult Inj.(Name of Viral strain: HM175 Inj)

Biological: Havrix Inj
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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Seroconversion rate [1 month after the second vaccination]

    Seroconversion criteria: Anti-HAV 20 IU/L or above

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Seroconversion rate [1 month after the first vaccination]

    Seroconversion rate at 1 month after the first vaccination

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Safety endpoint (Adverse events) [Approximately 12 months after a consent to the participation]

    Adverse events observed within 30 minutes after vaccination, solicited adverse events/adverse drug reactions, and unsolicited adverse events/adverse drug reactions through a diary, serious adverse events/adverse drug reactions
