Abstract

In this open study, 20 toddlers and 80 schoolchildren received an intramuscular dose of Epaxal and a booster dose 12 mo later to assess the efficacy and safety of this aluminium-free, virosomal hepatitis A vaccine. Four weeks after primary vaccination, 94% of toddlers and 99% of schoolchildren had seroconverted, and all toddlers and 94% of schoolchildren remained seroprotected for 12 mo. After vaccination with Epaxal and booster, all subjects were seroprotected. Epaxal was very well tolerated by both age groups.
