Immunogenicity of hepatitis B vaccine (HEVAC B) in children with advanced renal failure

et al. 1990

The immune response after hepatitis B (HB) vaccine HEVAC B was studied in 33 children (mean age 10 +/- 4 years) with advanced renal failure. Responders and protected patients were defined by antibody titres to HB surface antigen (anti-HBs) of greater than 10 and 50 mIU/ml, respectively. All received the initial recommended three injections at monthly intervals, and 23 received a booster injection (IB) 11 +/- 1 months after the third injection (I3). Loss of protection after I3 led to additional injections in 8 patients (25%). Vaccine was well tolerated and no HB infection occurred during the follow-up period (19 +/- 10 months). The percentage of responders was 91% 2 +/- 1 months after I3, and 100% 1 month, 13 +/- 1 months and 26 +/- 2 months after IB. The percentages of protected patients at these dates were 91%, 95%, 100% and 100%. Anti-HBs titres 1-3 months after I3 were useful for indicating those patients likely to have a rapid decline in anti-HBs titres, thus requiring serial anti-HBs determinations and additional injections to prevent a loss of protection. We conclude that at the expense of a reinforced vaccination schedule in 25% of patients, HEV AC B vaccine can safely achieve a sustained protection in more than 90% of uraemic children.

Twenty four subjects were simultaneously administered DT toxoids, OPV and HBV vaccines at the age of 3, 4-5 and 11 months and then followed up for 2 and 4 years in order to evaluate the duration of the immune response and the need and the timing of HBV revaccination. A fall in anti-HBs titre below 10 mIU/ml was observed at the follow up in 4/24 (16.7%) of the subjects. In other 5 children (20.8%) anti-HBs titre was found to be just above 10 mIU/ml. This would suggest that a revaccination is indicated and it could be performed at the age of 5-6 years when children enter school. This schedule is simple, effective and money saving since it reduces the cost/benefit ratio and the number of visits for immunisations, and it is expected to improve the compliance for the vaccination.
