Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Percentage of Seroprotected Subjects Against Anti-Hepatitis B (HBs) Antigen
At Month 3, aka at one month post Dose 3 of RTS,S vaccine or Engerix-B

A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with anti-HBs antibody titers greater than or equal to (\>=) the cut-off of 10 mili-international units per mililiter (mIU/mL). A decrease in the specificity of the anti-HBs ELISA assay had been observed in some studies for low levels of antibody (10-100 mIU/mL). The table shows updated results following partial or complete retesting/reanalysis, with study groups pooled by primary vaccine administered (RTS,S vs Engerix -B).

Anti-Hepatitis B (HBs) Antibody Concentrations for RTS,S Group and Engerix B Group
At Month 3, aka at one month post Dose 3 of RTS,S vaccine or Engerix-B

Concentrations, by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), were presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), and expressed in milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL). The assay cut-off was the seropositivity cut-off value of greater than or equal to (\>=) 10 mIU/mL. A decrease in the specificity of the anti-HBs ELISA assay had been observed in some studies for low levels of antibody (10-100 mIU/mL). The table shows updated results following partial or complete retesting/reanalysis, with study groups pooled by primary vaccine administered (RTS,S vs Engerix-B).

Anti-Hepatitis B (HBs) Antibody Concentrations for All Study Groups
At Month 3, aka at one month post Dose 3 of RTS,S vaccine or Engerix-B

Concentrations, by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), were presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), and expressed in milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL). The assay cut-off was the seropositivity cut-off value of greater than or equal to (\>=) 10 mIU/mL. A decrease in the specificity of the anti-HBs ELISA assay had been observed in some studies for low levels of antibody (10-100 mIU/mL). The table shows updated results following partial or complete retesting/reanalysis, for each RTS,S Regimen A, B, C and each Engerix B Regimen A and B study groups.
