Phase III, Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Two Different HBV Vaccination Schemes in Patients With Hepatic Cirrhosis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The objective of this clinical trial is to compare the response rate obtained with two different vaccination schemes against HBV in cirrhotic patients. These patients must be candidates for liver transplantation, who have failed seroconversion (anti-HBs < 10 IU/ml) after three intramuscular doses of 40 µg.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Post-vaccination serological response [At 35 ± 5 days after administration]
