Summary

HIV infected patients exposed to Hepatitis B virus are more susceptible to develop a chronic and severe liver disease, with a major risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer.

However, immune response to standard Hepatitis B vaccination is decreased in HIV-infected patients, compared to non HIV-infected individuals, and, in case of response, its durability has to be carefully followed up. This study compares the efficacy of two strategies of revaccination in HIV-infected patients who didn't respond to previous hepatitis B vaccination. Failure is defined by two conditions: non response to the primary immunization (2 to 4 single-dose injections received before the screening visit) and failure to a single 20 µg boost before being included in the study.
