摘要
A 20-μg dose of a recombinant hepatitis B vaccine was given at 0, 1, 2 and 6 months to 24 hemodialysis patients. From month 7 (i.e., 1 month after the fourth injection), 58.3% (14/24) of the patients had developed protective levels of antibodies against hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs). In patients responding to vaccination, the fourth injection led to an abrupt rise of the anti-HBs titres which reached their maximum 2 months later, that is, in month 8. At that time, the geometric mean titre of anti-HBs was 145.79 mlU/ml. Eighteen months after the start of vaccination, 50% (12/24) of the patients were maintaining protective levels of anti-HBs antibodies. It is noteworthy that these results could be obtained with a considerably lower dosage than previously recommended.
