Clin Infect Dis. 2023 Aug 14;77(3):414-418. doi: 10.1093/cid/ciad201.

Abstract

In this international, multicenter open-label study (ACTG A5379) of HepB-CpG vaccine in people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) without prior hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination, all 68 participants achieved HBV seroprotective titers after the 3-dose series in the primary analysis. No unexpected safety issues were observed.

Keywords: HIV; HepB-CpG; Heplisav-B; hepatitis B; vaccine.
