Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Senior group(over 65 years old)-HE
Anti-HEV IgG seronegative participants over 65 years old were enrolled. Hepatitis E vaccine, containing 30mcg of HEV239 recombinant antigen adsorbed to alum adjuvant suspended in 0.5ml phosphate buffer, was given at 0, 1, 6m for three doses.
 Biological: Recombinant (E. Coli) Hepatitis E Vaccine
Other Name: Hecolin®
Active Comparator: Younger groups(16-65 years old)
Participants aged 16-65 years old were enrolled. Hepatitis E vaccine, containing 30mcg of HEV239 recombinant antigen adsorbed to alum adjuvant suspended in 0.5ml phosphate buffer, was given at 0, 1, 6m for three doses.
 Biological: Recombinant (E. Coli) Hepatitis E Vaccine
Other Name: Hecolin®
No Intervention: Senior group(over 65 years old)-Cont
Anti-HEV IgG seropositive participants over 65 years old were enrolled. This is the safety control group, without any intervention.


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants with Serious and Non-Serious Adverse Events [ Time Frame: From month 0-7 ]
    Any adverse events reported within one month post each vaccination would be recorded, any serious adverse events reported throughout the study would be recorded.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. anti-HEV IgG seropositive rate [ Time Frame: at month 7 ]
  2. GMT of anti-HEV IgG [ Time Frame: 7 month after first vaccination ]
    Serum sample would be collected at month 7, and geometric mean titer of anti-HEV IgG would be tested
