Abstrakt: Prevention of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection by vaccination can potentially eliminate HBV-related diseases. PreHevbrio™/PreHevbri® is a 3-antigen (S, preS1, preS2) HBV vaccine (3A-HBV) recently licensed for adults in the US, EU and Canada. This study evaluated antibody persistence in a subset of fully vaccinated and seroprotected (anti-HBs ≥ 10 mIU/mL) Finnish participants from the phase 3 trial (PROTECT) of 3A-HBV versus single-antigen HBV vaccine (1A-HBV). 465/528 eligible subjects were enrolled (3A-HBV: 244; 1A-HBV: 221). Baseline characteristics were balanced. After 2.5 years, more 3A-HBV subjects remained seroprotected (88.1 % [95 %CI: 84.1,92.2]) versus 1A-HBV (72.4 % [95 %CI: 66.6,78.3)], p < 0.0001) and had higher mean anti-HBs [1382.9 mIU/mL (95 %CI: 1013.8,1751.9) versus 252.6 mIU/mL (95 %CI: 127.5,377.6), p < 0.0001]. In multiple variable logistic regression analysis including age, vaccine, initial vaccine response, sex and BMI, only higher post dose 3 (Day 196) antibody titers significantly reduced the odds of losing seroprotection.
