Could fewer shots protect kids just as well?
NCT ID NCT04294433
Summary
This study tested whether giving children fewer hepatitis B vaccine doses provides the same level of protection as the standard three-dose schedule. Researchers compared the immune response in 431 children who received either two or three vaccine doses starting at 2 months old. The goal was to see if simplifying the vaccination schedule could still effectively prevent hepatitis B infection.
