## Abstract It is important to monitor the longβterm persistence of antibodies induced by vaccination. Four cohorts were followed for their longβterm immunity after vaccination with a combined hepatitis A and B vaccine (Twinrix; SmithKline Beecham Biologicals, Rixsenart, Belgium). Two cohorts of ad

## Abstract This trial evaluated the reactogenicity, kinetics of antibody induction, and longβterm immunogenicity of a 720 enzymeβlinked immunosorbent assay units (EL. U.) antigen dose of an inactivated hepatitis A vaccine (Havrix(tm), SmithKline Beecham Biologicals, Rixensart, Belgium). One hundre
To estimate the long-term persistence of anti-HAV antibodies, 120 (schedule 0-6) and 194 (schedule 0-12) adults were vaccinated and followed-up annually for 6 years. Shortly after the last dose, anti-HAV levels fell sharply (annual decline rate delta > 65%). Thereafter, delta diminished to 10-15%. G
