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.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Second HBV vaccination cycle

Second cycle of HBV vaccination (0, 1 and 2 months)will be administered. Three intramuscular doses of 40 µg.

Biological: HBV vaccine
Patients receive a second cycle of vaccination
Other Names:
  • HBVAXPRO 40µg HBV vaccine
  • Active Comparator: Single dose of HBV vaccine

    Single dose (40µg) of HBV vaccine will be administered at 6 months after 1 cycle of HBV vaccination

    Biological: HBV vaccine
    Patients receive vaccination according to the guidelines.
    Other Names:
  • HBVAXPRO 40µg HBV vaccine
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Post-vaccination serological response [At 35 ± 5 days after administration]

      To compare the response rate obtained with two different vaccination schemes against HBV in cirrhotic patients potential candidates for liver transplantation, who have failed seroconversion (anti-HBs < 10 IU/ml) after three intramuscular doses of 40 µg at 0, 1 and 2 months.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Association of serological response to HBV vaccination to etiology and severity of cirrhosis [After 6 months]

      Etiology and severity of cirrhosis

    2. Association of serological response to HBV vaccination to diabetes presence [After 6 months]

      Diabetes

    3. Association of serological response to HBV vaccination to body mass index [At baseline]

      Body mass index

    4. Association of serological response to HBV vaccination to anti-Hepatitis B core antigen positive presence [At baseline]

      Presence of anti-Hepatitis B core antigen positive

    5. Association of serological response to HBV vaccination to obesity [After 6 months]

      Obesity
