Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Twinrix Group
Subjects who received 2 doses of Twinrix (lot A, B or C) in the primary study. As lot to lot consistency was assessed during the primary study, the 3 groups (lot A, B or C) were pooled into the Twinrix Group for data analyses during the first long-term follow-up NCT00289718 and this long-term follow-up. A challenge dose of the Havrix or Engerix-B vaccines can be administered in this study based on serology results at each time point.
