Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percentage of Seroresponders Before and After the Challenge Vaccination
Predose (Day 1) and 1 month after challenge dose (Month 1)

A seroresponder was a participant with an anti-hepatitis B surface antibody titer \>=10 milli Merck U/mL. The percentage of seroresponders was assessed before and after the challenge dose.

Antibody Response to Hepatitis B Surface Antigen in Subjects Who Received a 3-dose Primary Series of RECOMBIVAX HB in Infancy
4 weeks after vaccination with either modified process hepatitis B vaccine or ENGERIX-B

Number of subjects who received a 3-dose primary series of RECOMBIVAX HB™ in infancy and who demonstrated antibodies to hepatitis B surface antigen ≥10 mIU/mL at 4 weeks after receiving a booster dose of modified process hepatitis B vaccine or ENGERIX-B™.

Secondary Endpoints
Percentage of Participants With One or More Adverse Experiences
Up to Day 15 after challenge dose
Percentage of Participants Who Discontinued the Study Due to an Adverse Experience
