NCT04970836

Brief Summary

This prospective cohort study aims to provide the evidence-based clinical guide to help decide the revaccination doses of hepatitis B vaccine that the high-risk young adults without hepatitis B seroprotective antibodies (anti-HBs titer\<10 mIU/mL) need to take.

Interventions

Hepatitis B vaccine (Engerix-B) will be administered to the eligible participants by 4 groups. Each case will be tracked for 12 months, at 0, 7-10 days, 28 days, 24-28 weeks, 48-52 weeks anti-HBs titer concentration and 4 follow-up questionnaires.
