pubmed:abstractText |
A recombinant yeast-derived pre-S2 + S-containing hepatitis B vaccine (TGP-943) was clinically evaluated through three phases of testing in a total of 2137 volunteers. We observed the immunogenic purity of TGP-943 (phase 1), the inter-lot reproducibility of both safety and immunogenicity (phase 2), no significant side-effects, a high capability of inducing both anti-HBs and anti-pre-S2 antibodies (phases 1, 2 and 3), and an ability to induce seroconversion in the majority of vaccines who had been non-responsive to conventional hepatitis B vaccines (phases 2 and 3). In conclusion, TGP-943 is a safe and tolerable vaccine, with special merits: the ability to induce an early anti-pre-S2 response that circumvents the problem of delayed appearance of anti-HBs, and efficacy in non-responders to previous vaccination.
