NCT03168412

Brief Summary

This phase IV clinical study was designed to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the recombinant Hepatitis E vaccine (Hecolin®), manufactured by Xiamen Innovax Biotech CO., LTD., in healthy adults (over 18 years) with accelerated vaccination schedule. The study volunteers will receive the 3 doses of Hecolin® administered intramuscularly according to a 0-7-21 days schedule or a 0-1-6 month schedule.
