Abstract
Vaccination remains the most effective and cost-saving measure to protect against hepatitis B, a global health problem. It is crucial to characterize the persistence of the immune response after booster vaccination. This study aimed to quantify the persistence through mathematical modeling. Booster vaccination against hepatitis B was conducted in children 5-15 years in 2009-10 in Zhejiang Province. There were four dosage formulations of hepatitis B vaccines [Shenzhenkangtai Biotechnology Co. Ltd. Dalianhanxin Biotechnology Co. Ltd. NCPC GeneTech Biotechnology Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. Sinovac Biotech Co. LTD. China]: 5, 10, and 20 μg hepatitis B vaccines or 5 μg hepatitis A and B (HAB) combination vaccine with a 0-1-6-month schedule. These were randomly administered to children negative for all hepatitis B markers, named as the schedule 2 group. Anti-HBs positive subjects were given one dose of booster, named as the schedule 1 group. Anti-HBs antibody was measured 1, 7, 18, 66, and 102 months after the first booster dose. A linear mixed-effects model was proposed to predict long-term persistence. One hundred two months after the booster dose, the mean anti-HBs levels were 33.8 mIU/mL, with 73.7 mIU/mL for the schedule 1 group and 20.2 mIU/mL for the schedule 2 group. The model predicted that 99.5% of subjects would remain seropositive (≥10mIU/mL) at year 20 post booster vaccination, with 100.0% and 98.8% for the schedule 1 group and the schedule 2 group, respectively, whereas at year 30, the seropositivity rates would decrease to 76.8%, with 99.4% for the schedule 1 group and 62.5% for the schedule 2 group. The immunogenicity of the booster vaccination could persist for at least 8 years. Mathematical modeling may predict even longer, up to 30 years of protection.

Abstract
Vaccination is the most effective way to control and prevent acute and chronic hepatitis B, including cirrhosis and HCC, on a global scale. According to WHO recommendations, 190 countries in the world have introduced hepatitis B vaccination into their national childhood immunization programs with an excellent profile of safety, immunogenicity, and effectiveness. Following vaccination, seroprotection rates are close to 100% in healthy children and over 95% in healthy adults. Persistence of anti-HBs is related to the antibody peak achieved after vaccination. The peak is higher the longer the antibody duration is. Loss of anti-HBs does not necessarily mean loss of immunity since most vaccinated individuals retain immune memory for HBsAg and rapidly develop strong anamnestic responses when boosted. Evidence indicates that the duration of protection can persist for at least 35 years after priming. Hence, booster doses of vaccines are currently not recommended to sustain long-term immunity in healthy vaccinated individuals. In Italy, vaccination against hepatitis B is met with success. In 2020, Italy became one of the first countries in Europe to be validated for achieving the WHO regional hepatitis B control targets.

Abstract
Objectives We sought to assess the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) seroprotection among vaccinated children in the Assiut governorate, Egypt, and assess a booster dose immune memory response among non-seroprotected children. Methods Using a multistage cluster sample, 566 children were recruited from three clusters: one urban and two rural. Children were aged from nine months to 16 years old. All participants received the full three doses of the compulsory HBV vaccine during infancy. Serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), total anti-hepatitis B core (anti-HBc) antibodies, and quantitative detection of anti-HBs were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Repeatedly positive samples for HBsAg/anti-HBc were submitted for quantitative HBV DNA detection using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Non-seroprotective participants (anti-HBs < 10 IU/L) were given a booster dose of HBV vaccine. Two weeks later, a blood sample was taken from each child to assess an anamnestic response. Results The seroprotection rate was 53.2%, and only two children had HBV breakthrough infection (0.4%) with positive serum anti-HBc and HBV DNA. Age was the only significant predictor for non-seroprotection with an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 3.2, 9.4, and 9.9 among children aged 5-10, 11-15, and > 15 years, respectively, compared to younger children (p < 0.001). About 85% of non-seroprotected children developed an anamnestic response after receiving the booster dose, and 84.3% of responders had a good response (3 100 IU/L). Undetectable pre-booster titer was found to be the only risk factor for non-response to booster with OR = 3.2 (p < 0.010). About 95.7% of children who were not responding to booster dose developed immune response after receiving the three doses of HBV vaccine. Conclusions Older age of children was the only significant predictor for HBV non-seroprotection. High anamnestic response rate signifies the presence of immune memory with long-term protection despite the waning of anti-HBs over time. However, some children with pre-booster undetectable anti-HBs titers may be unable to develop anamnestic response, and a second vaccination series might be necessary for HBV protection for these children.

Abstract
Debate continues regarding the need for a booster vaccination in children who received a universal infant hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination. The aim was to explore the need and the strategies for the booster HBV vaccination. 8-year prospective cohort study was conducted among children aged 5-15 years in 2009-2010 in Zhejiang Province. The participants were divided into groups A (<0.1 mIU/mL), B (0.1 to < 1 mIU/mL) and C (1 to <10 mIU/mL) according to the pre-booster anti-HBs antibody levels. 5 μg (group I), 10 μg (group II), 20 μg hepatitis B vaccines (group III) or 5 μg hepatitis A and B (HAB) vaccines (group IV) with 0-1-6-month schedule were randomly administered to children negative for all markers. Blood samples were collected at baseline HBV marker testing, 1 month after the first dose, 1 month, 1 year, 5 years and 8 years after the third dose. Among 4170 children, 2326 (55.8%) were negative for all HBV markers. Group II showed the highest seropositive rates of 92.8%, 99.7%, 97.6%, 90.3% and 83.4% with GMTs of 4194.5 mIU/ml, 4163.9 mIU/ml, 466.9 mIU/ml, 190.6 mIU/ml, 122.6 mIU/ml from 1 month after dose 1 to 8 years after dose 3, respectively (P < .01). Participants in group C showed seropositive rates of 98.9%, 99.9%, 99.5%, 95.5%, 92.8% after the revaccination with GMTs of 6519.6 mIU/ml, 5267.4 mIU/ml, 547.1 mIU/ml, 249.5 mIU/ml, 155.3 mIU/ml, respectively, higher than group A and B (P < .001), except 1 month after the third dose. The 10 μg of HBV vaccine with a 0-1-6-month booster regimen may elicit robust responses and persist for 8 years or longer. Additionally, 1-dose revaccination maybe suitable for children with 1 to < 10 mIU/ml anti-HBs titers.

Abstract
Whether the primary Hepatitis B vaccination confers lifelong protection is debated. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of booster doses in mounting a protective HBV immune response in subjects vaccinated 18-20 years earlier. The study population consisted of vaccinated students attending medical and healthcare professions schools. A booster dose was offered to subjects with a <10 mIU/mL anti-HBs titer. The post-booster anti-HBs titer was evaluated after four weeks. The subjects with a <10 mIU/mL post-booster anti-HBs titer, received a second and third dose of the vaccine and after one month they were retested. A <10 mIU/mL anti-HBs titer was found in 35.1% of the participants and 92.2% of subjects that were boosted had a ≥10 mIU/mL post-booster anti-HBs titer, whereas 7.8% did not mount an anamnestic response. A low post-booster response (10-100 mIU/mL anti-HBs) was significantly more likely in subjects with a <2.00 mIU/mL pre-booster titer compared to those with a 2.00-9.99 mIU/mL pre-booster titer. The anamnestic response was significantly related to the baseline anti-HBs levels. A booster dose of the HBV vaccine may be insufficient to induce an immunological response in subjects with undetectable anti-HBs titers. A booster dose might be implemented when an anamnestic response is still present.

Abstract
Healthcare workers (HCWs) are considered high-risk subjects for Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection due to occupational exposure to blood and body fluids. Vaccination represents the core strategy for HBV infection prevention. Following our previous publication on this topic, we aimed to assess the effectiveness of booster vaccine doses in eliciting the immunological response in seronegative (<10 mIU/mL) HCWs and students of Careggi Teaching Hospital, Florence (Italy). All subjects received primary vaccination course, and they were tested for serum anti-HBs antibodies. In seronegative subjects, a challenge dose of vaccine was administered and the test was repeated 1 month later. Six hundred and ninety-eight (87.8%) of 795 HCWs and students tested responded to the challenge dose. After this challenge dose, males more often had negative anti-HBs titer compared with females (15.9% vs 10.2%; p < .05). The completion of the second vaccination course was offered to subjects with persistently negative anti-HBs titer. 76.2% (32) of those who accepted the fifth dose, and 3 of the 5 who accepted the sixth dose seroconverted. This report shows the importance to convey a strong message to negative subjects at the initial anti-HBs dosage: accepting all the three additional vaccine doses allows the vast majority of them to obtain protection.

Abstract
Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) is a major obstacle in the elimination of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Telbivudine (LdT) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) are the two most common antiviral medicines for preventing MTCT. However, the efficacy and safety of LdT and TDF in preventing HBV vertical transmission during the second to third trimester have not been compared rigorously. Therefore, we carried out a prospective multicentre cohort study of chronic hepatitis B in mothers with HBV DNA > 106 IU/mL, receiving LdT or TDF during the second to third trimester. Among the 893 mothers enrolled, 857 (LdT/TDF/untreated group (NTx) = 396/325/136) completed consecutive follow-up with 854 infants (LdT/TDF/NTx = 395/323/136). LdT and TDF treatment resulted in a similar decrease of HBV DNA in mothers at delivery. Multivariate analysis indicated that only HBsAg titre at the baseline correlated with viral DNA decrease (P = 0.015). With intention-to-treat analysis, MTCT rates in the LdT, TDF and NTx group were 4.41%, 2.42% and 22.08%, respectively. An increasing vertical transmission rate was found to be closely associated with higher HBsAg titre, 5.32% and 17.65% infection rate was estimated in infants born to mothers with HBsAg > 4 and >5 log10 IU/mL, respectively. No serious side effects were reported in either mothers or infants. LdT and TDF treatments were well tolerated and showed comparable efficacy in reducing MTCT. Higher risk of MTCT was shown in pregnant women with HBsAg > 4 log10 IU/mL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long-term persistence of anti-hepatitis B surface (HBs) antibodies and the response to a HB challenge re-vaccination in children who had received a primary series of DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP∼T (Hexaxim™) or DTaP-IPV-HB/PRP∼T (Infanrix hexa™). METHODS Two cohorts of participants who had previously received HB vaccine at birth followed by either DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP∼T or DTaP-IPV-HB/PRP∼T co-administered with PCV7 at 2, 4, 6 months of age in a randomized, Phase III, observer-blind study in Thailand, were followed up for anti-HBs antibodies (geometric mean concentrations [GMCs] and seroprotection [SP] rate [% of participants with a titer ≥10 mIU/mL]) at 12-18 months of age and 9-10 years of age. A monovalent HB challenge re-vaccination was administered at 9-10 years of age and the anamnestic response was evaluated. RESULTS Anti-HBs GMCs and SP rates in the DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP∼T and DTaP-IPV-HB/PRP∼T groups were high and similar post-primary vaccination series (2477 mIU/mL and 99.5% and 2442 mIU/mL and 99.5%, respectively) and declined to a similar extent in each group at 12-18 months (154.5 mIU/mL and 90.8% and 162.3 mIU/mL and 96.5%, respectively). Antibody levels further declined at 9-10 years of age (13.3 mIU/mL and 49.3% and 8.0 mIU/mL and 42.9%) and a strong anamnestic response occurred in each group post-HB challenge re-vaccination (92.8% and 98.7%, respectively). CONCLUSION The kinetics of long-term anti-HBs antibody persistence were similar following a primary series of DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP∼T or DTaP-IPV-HB/PRP∼T. The response to a subsequent HB challenge re-vaccination was strong and similar in each group, demonstrating persisting immune memory.

Abstract
With the increase in the number of routine vaccinations the development of pentavalent and hexavalent combination vaccines fitting the routine vaccination schedules became a necessity. In this respect, Europe has taken the lead in comparison with other world regions, and routine vaccination with pentavalent and hexavalent combinations including DTPa, Hib, HepB and IPV has been on European vaccination programs for >15years. Since the marketing authorization of Hexavac® and Infanrix Hexa® in 2000, immunization schedules in most European countries have included hexavalent vaccines. In the last years, two new hexavalent vaccines have been licensed and commercialized worldwide. This paper presents a review of the pharmaceutical profiles of the three hexavalent vaccines currently available. In addition, we aim to review safety, co-administration, tolerability and other practical concerns of their use.
