  • Other names: Hecolin®

Senior group(over 65 years old)-HE Experimental

Anti-HEV IgG seronegative participants over 65 years old were enrolled. Hepatitis E vaccine, containing 30mcg of HEV239 recombinant antigen adsorbed to alum adjuvant suspended in 0.5ml phosphate buffer, was given at 0, 1, 6m for three doses.

Younger groups(16-65 years old) Active Comparator

Participants aged 16-65 years old were enrolled. Hepatitis E vaccine, containing 30mcg of HEV239 recombinant antigen adsorbed to alum adjuvant suspended in 0.5ml phosphate buffer, was given at 0, 1, 6m for three doses.

Senior group(over 65 years old)-Cont No Intervention

Anti-HEV IgG seropositive participants over 65 years old were enrolled. This is the safety control group, without any intervention.
