A proof of concept (POC) study will be conducted in 44 volunteers that have been fully vaccinated against hepatitis B in the past (at least 5 years ago) to assess the safety and immunogenicity of intradermal vaccination with hepatitis B surface vaccine antigen using a newly developed intradermal injection device VAX-ID, compared to intramuscular and intradermal (Mantoux technique) injection.

Intramuscular group Active Comparator

These subjects will receive one intramuscular injection of 1.0cc HBVAXPRO 10mcgr/ml (Sanofi Pasteur-MSD) with syringe and needle in the deltoid region.

Intradermal group (Mantoux) Experimental

These subjects will receive one intradermal injection with mantoux technique in the forearm. 0.1cc of HBVAXPRO 40mcgr/ml (Sanofi Pasteur-MSD) will be injected.

Intradermal group (VAX-ID) A Experimental

These subjects will receive one intradermal injection with the newly developed intradermal injection device VAX-ID in the forearm. 0.1cc of HBVAXPRO 40mcgr/ml (Sanofi Pasteur MSD) will be injected.

Intradermal group (VAX-ID) B Experimental

These subjects will receive two intradermal injections with two newly developed intradermal injection devices VAX-ID in both forearms each 0.1cc of HBVAXPRO 40mcgr/ml (Sanofi Pasteur MSD) will be injected.
