Summary
This study was conducted in healthy infants and will provide new immunogenicity and safety data for the modified process hepatitis B vaccine. This study was conducted to address the following: to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety data of the 5 microgram dose of the modified process hepatitis B vaccine compared with a 10 microgram dose of the modified process hepatitis B vaccine, to evaluate another dosing schedule of 2, 4, and 6 months, and to provide descriptive immunogenicity data of another marketed vaccine (ENGERIX-B®).
