NCT ID NCT04674462
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at why some people do not develop enough protection after getting the hepatitis B vaccine. Researchers will compare the standard vaccine with a newer one that seems to work better. By studying the immune responses of 101 adults, they hope to find clues that could help make all vaccines more effective.
