چکیده
OBJECTIVES To assess immunogenicity of a single dose of live attenuated hepatitis A vaccine in Indian children, ten years after immunization. METHODS Of 143 children vaccinated in 2004, 121 children were evaluated in 2014, clinically and for anti-HAV antibodies. RESULTS 13 children were early vaccine failures who received two doses of HAV vaccine subsequently. 106 (98%) of 108 remaining children had seroprotective levels with a geometric mean titer of 100.5 mIU/mL. On analysis of all 121 children, the immunogenicity was 87.6%. CONCLUSION Single dose of live attenuated hepatitis A vaccine provides long-term immunity in Indian children.

A review of immunogenicity and tolerability of live attenuated Hepatitis A vaccine in children
Changing epidemiology of Hepatitis A virus (HAV) has led to an increased susceptibility of adolescents and adults to the infection. Vaccination can remarkably reduce the incidence and associated morbidity of HAV infection. This review is focused on the safety and efficacy of H2 strain derived live attenuated Hepatitis A vaccine. We found the vaccine to be highly immunogenic with minimal or negl...

An open non comparative study of a live attenuated H2 strain Hepatitis A vaccine of Chinese origin was carried out in 143 healthy Indian children aged 1 to 12 years (mean age 4.87 2.76 years; 88 boys, 55 girls). At baseline, all were negative for IgG HAV antibodies and had normal hematological and biochemical indices. Two months after a single dose of the vaccine (given subcutaneously), 137 chi...

Worldwide, viral hepatitis continues to be a cause of considerable morbidity and mortality. Mass immunization with a single dose of live attenuated HAV has been shown to significantly reduce disease burden in the community. This was a phase IV, 5-year follow up study carried out at 4 centers (Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai) across India. The subjects with antibody titer <20 mIU/mL at baseli...

UNLABELLED A randomized clinical trial of hepatitis A vaccines (1 or 2 doses of inactivated vaccine [Healive] or 1 dose of live attenuated vaccine [Biovac]) was conducted among adults to evaluate seroprotection rates and geometric mean concentrations of antibody against hepatitis A virus for 36 months. High rates of seroprotection persisted for at least 36 months among adults who received 1 or ...
