About this trial

The investigators aim to perform a randomized clinical trial to determine the optimal timing of hepatitis B vaccination after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) through evaluating the immunity effect of two different vaccination schedules (initiated at 3 or 6 months after transplantation) in patients with different immune reconstitution status.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients must be ≥ 16 years old;

Patients receiving hematopoietic cell transplantation;

Patients achieving complete molecular remission;

Patients or their guardians have to sign an informed consent form before the start of the research procedure.

Disqualifiers

Multiple transplantations;

Donors' HBV-DNA or HBsAg are positive;

Patients' HBV-DNA or HBsAg are positive before transplantation or < 3 months after transplantation;

Patients who are unable to comply with the research treatments and monitoring requirements due to mental or other medical conditions;

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Titer of hepatitis B surface antibodies (HBsAb).

The investigators will compare the titer of HBsAb one month after the completion of 3 doses of hepatitis B vaccine in transplants with different timing of hepatitis B vaccination, different donor type and different immune reconstitution status.

Time frame
One month after the completion of 3 doses of hepatitis B vaccine.

Secondary outcomes

1

HBV infection

HBV-DNA or HBsAg are positive

Time frame
Through study completion, an average of 1 year
