Abstract
Background and Aims
Though, various experimental therapeutic approaches for chronic hepatitis B infection have been reported, few have been verified by clinical trials. We have developed an antigen-antibody (HBsAg-HBIG) immunogenic complex therapeutic vaccine candidate with alum as adjuvant (YIC), aimed at breaking immune tolerance to HBV by modulating viral antigen processing and presentation. A double-blind placebo controlled phase II B clinical trial of YIC has been reported previously, and herein results of phase III clinical trial among 450 patients are presented.
Methods
Twelve doses of either YIC or alum alone as the placebo was administrated randomly to 450 CHB patients and followed for 24 weeks after the completion of immunization. The primary endpoint was HBeAg seroconversion, and the secondary endpoints were decrease in viral load, improvement of liver function and histology.
Results
In contrast to previous phase II B trial using six doses of YIC and alum as placebo, six more injections of YIC or alum resulted in decrease of HBeAg seroconversion rate from 21.8% to 14.0% in YIC group, but increase from 9% to 21.9% in the alum group. Decrease in serum HBV DNA and normalization of liver function were similar in both groups (p>0.05).
Conclusions
Over stimulation with YIC did not increase but decreased its efficacy due to immune fatigue in hosts. Appropriate immunization protocol should be explored and is crucial for therapeutic vaccination. Multiple injections of alum alone could have stimulated potent inflammatory and innate immune responses contributing to its therapeutic efficacy, and needs further investigation。
