Extrait

The immune response of uraemic patients to hepatitis B vaccination is impaired compared to healthy subjects. After vaccination, anti-HBs peak antibody concentrations are reduced. As the persistence of anti-HBs is closely related to the initial anti-HBs peak, a more immunogenic vaccine, allowing higher antibody concentrations, would be a benefit for this population.
