About this trial

This is an interventional basic science trial for Hepatitis B focused on measuring Heplisav

Eligibility Criteria

50 Years - 70 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 50 to 70 years of age, inclusive
  • In good health in the opinion of the principal investigator, based upon medical history and physical examination
  • Serum negative for HBsAg, anti-HBs, antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  • If female of childbearing potential, agree to consistently use a highly effective method of birth control from the screening visit through Week 12/Visit 10

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning a pregnancy
  • Known history of an autoimmune disease
  • Previously received any hepatitis B vaccine (approved or investigational)
  • Body-mass index (BMI) >30 kg/m2, diabetes mellitus (type 1 or 2), or other chronic medical condition that in the opinion of the principal investigator might interfere with the immune response to hepatitis B vaccination

Sites / Locations

  • Johnson County Clinical Trials

HEPLISAV

Arm Description

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Evaluate the changes in cellular responses and gene expression patterns in serial blood samples collected from healthy older adults after vaccination with HEPLISAV.
Determine which of these changes correlate with the development of protective levels of antibody (anti-HBs >/= 10 milli-international unit (mIU)/mL) to hepatitis B virus (HBV).
