3. 05/11/2010 Rates of Symptomatic and Chronic HBV Infection by Age at Infection
4. What is immunoprophylaxis ? A form of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) using hepatitis B vaccine and high titer hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) to prevent perinatal and postnatal transmission of hepatitis B virus infection
Hepatitis B infection has a long incubation period* between exposure and disease; provides window for protecting against infection 05/11/2010
5. 05/11/2010 Risk of Perinatal HBV Transmission Varies by Degree of Virus Replication amongPregnant Women with Chronic Infection HBsAg = Hepatitis B surface antigen, marker of acute or chronic infection (infectious)
HBeAg =Hepatitis B e antigen, marker of high level active HBV replication (highly infectious)
6. 05/11/2010 Overview ACIP recommendations for immunoprophylaxis to prevent perinatal hepatitis B infection
Hepatitis B vaccines for infants
Safety
Efficacy with and without HBIG
Efficacy in preterm infants
Revaccinating non-responders

05/11/2010
Case Management toPrevent Perinatal HBV Infection-1(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Identify all HBsAg-positive women and case manage their infants
Ensure their infants receive hepatitis B vaccine and HBIG = 12 hours of birth
8.
05/11/2010
Case Management toPrevent Perinatal HBV Infection-2(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Complete the recommended primary series of hepatitis B vaccine
BW > 2000 gm: 3-4 total doses of hepatitis B vaccine
BW = 2000 gm (preterm infants): 4 total doses hepatitis B vaccine
9. 05/11/2010 Case Management to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections-3(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) 1- 2 months after last dose, obtain post-vaccination serology (# 1)
Wait at least 1 month after last dose: antigen from last dose of vaccine can give positive result (~18 days)
Obtain serology as soon as possible but at least 9 months after last dose: some infants will be susceptible and will benefit from revaccination
10. 05/11/2010 Case Management to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections-4(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Post-vaccination serologic tests and their interpretation
Anti-HBs =10 mIU/ml = immune
HBsAg, if positive = HBV infected
Educate to prevent HBV transmission and complete contact management for members of the household (screening, vaccination, referring for evaluation, care)
11. 05/11/2010 Case Management to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections-5(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Post-vaccination serology #1, Ctd
If HBsAg-negative and anti-HBs <10 mIU/ml, the infant is still susceptible
Revaccinate with 3 more doses hepatitis B vaccine (starting as soon as possible)
12. 05/11/2010 Case Management to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections- 6(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) 1-2 months after last revaccination dose, check another post-vaccination serology (# 2)
Immune - Anti-HBs =10 mIU/ml,
Infected HBsAg-positive, or
Remains susceptible (non-responder) - anti-HBs <10 mIU/ml, HBsAg-negative
13. 05/11/2010 Case Management to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections- 7(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Complete education and contact management for members of the household (how to prevent transmission of HBV, screening, vaccination, referring for evaluation, care)

Immunoprophylaxis to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections-8(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Identify infants born to woman with unknown HBsAg status at delivery
Ensure HBsAg test is ordered (ASAP) and case manage their infants
15. 05/11/2010 Immunoprophylaxis to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections-9(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Hepatitis B vaccine = 12 hours of birth, and
BW = 2000 gm (preterm infants): HBIG = 12 hours unless mothers HBsAg is now known to be negative
BW >2000 gm: HBIG = 7 days if mothers HBsAg test positive
Case manage infant unless HBsAg-negative
16.
05/11/2010
Immunoprophylaxis to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infections-8(Post-exposure Prophylaxis-PEP) Infants born to woman with negative HBsAg at birthing hospital
Encourage hospitals to adopt universal birth dose policy
First dose hepatitis B vaccine before hospital discharge
Safety net HBsAg-positive contacts, errors
17. First Generation Hepatitis B Vaccines Plasma Derived Commercially available in 1982
Consisted of purified HBsAg (protein) from adults with chronic HBV infection; vaccine preparations treated to inactivate viruses
Highly effective (>90%)
Concerns about transmitting blood borne pathogens; discontinued 1990
18. Second Generation Hepatitis B Vaccines Recombinant DNA Introduced 1986

26. Background for Recommended Case Management to Prevent Perinatal Hepatitis B Infection Hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG)
Hepatitis B vaccine with and without HBIG
Hepatitis B vaccine responses in preterm infants
Protection for non-responders by revaccination 05/11/2010
27. HBIG (alone) to Prevent Perinatal HBV Infection among Infants born to HBeAg-Positive Women, Taiwan, 1978-1982 05/11/2010
28. 05/11/2010
29. HBIG Prophylaxis for Infants Born to HBeAg-positive Women HBIG temporarily protected infants from hepatitis B virus infection
More infected infants developed active response (immunity) to HBV infection than chronic infection
Reduced chronic infections by ~50%-75% before age 15 months
New infections continued 05/11/2010
30. Hepatitis B Vaccine Trials Infants Born to HBsAg-Positive Women Vaccine efficacy defined as percent protected against chronic HBV infection in first year of life
Historical controls for rates chronic infection, ~70%, 90%
Rates of seroprotection (anti-HBsAg =10 mIU/ml) after 3 doses, measured at age 9-12 months; geometric mean titers anti-HBsAg
31. Hepatitis B Vaccine Trials Infants Born to HBeAg-Positive Women Plasma and recombinant vaccines
Dosages 2.5 - 20 g HBsAg protein
Regimens
First dose <24 hours (3-5 days) of life
Many schedules: 0, 1, 6 months; 0,1,2,12 months; 0, 1.5, 9 months, etc)
With/without HBIG < 24 hours after birth
32. Recombinant Hepatitis B Vaccine Efficacy Infants Born to HBeAg-Positive Women 05/11/2010
33. Meta-analysis of 4 Trials (A, B, C, D)HBIG plus Hepatitis B Vaccine vs. Hepatitis B Vaccine Alone 05/11/2010
34. Rates Chronic HBV Infection among Infants Born to HBeAg Positive Women 05/11/2010
35. Vaccine Efficacy of Hepatitis B Vaccine among Highest Risk Infants (HBeAg-positive Mother) Vaccination series without HBIG prevents ~70% 90% chronic HBV infections among infants at highest risk
Vaccination series with HBIG (both administered = 12 hours of birth) prevents 85% - 95% chronic HBV infections among infants at highest risk
2%-10% (~5%) chronic infections not prevented 05/11/2010
36. Seroprotection Anti-HBs =10 mIU/ml after vaccination correlates best with long-term protection, even as antibody wanes or no longer detected
Vaccine responders protected 20+ years; studies in Asia and Alaska (HBV endemic)
Breakthrough infections occur
No symptomatic infection
No chronic infection* 05/11/2010
37. Seroprotection Rates and Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) of Anti-HBsAg among InfantsBorn to HBeAg-Positive Women 05/11/2010
38. Seroprotection and Immunogenicity Immunogenicity and seroprotection rates improve with booster dose (# 3)
Higher geometric mean titer (GMT) extends period of measureable antibody
Seroprotection achieved among ~90+% infants after 3 doses hepatitis B vaccine
~5-10% infants non-responding; benefit from revaccination
05/11/2010
39. Infant Seroprotection (SP) Rates after Revaccination with Hepatitis B Vaccine(HBsAg-Positive or -Negative Women) 05/11/2010
40. Seroprotection Rates among Infant Non-respondersafter Revaccination Seroprotection rates achieved among 85%-95% of infant vaccine non-responders after revaccination
Improved response likely tied to older age
Use monovalent hepatitis B vaccine and routine dosage; effective, and avoids unnecessary doses of other components in combination vaccines
05/11/2010
41. Hepatitis B Vaccine for Low Birth Weight (Preterm) Infants No special adverse reactions (monitor for apnea as needed)
LBW infants (BW <2000 gm), especially ill preterm infants may have decreased immune response to hepatitis B vaccination starting at birth
For low risk LBW (preterm) infants, ACIP recommends hepatitis B vaccine starting at age 1 month or hospital discharge
05/11/2010
42. 05/11/2010
43. Hepatitis B Vaccine for High RiskLow Birth Weight (Preterm) Infants LBW infants born to HBsAg-positive or HBsAg-unknown status women should receive vaccine and HBIG = 12 hours of birth
Dose 1 (not counted); 2nd dose-1 given at age 1 month for infants born to HBsAg-positive women
High risk LBW infants non-responders respond to revaccination (similar to normal BW infants)
05/11/2010
44. Timing of Hepatitis B Vaccine Doses Makes a Difference HBIG >12 hr associated with higher rates perinatal HBV infection
Dose 2 delayed to age =10 weeks, associated with higher rate perinatal hepatitis B infection
Dose 3 (booster) at age =24 weeks improves long-term protection
Dose 1 before hospital discharge associated with higher vaccination coverage for other vaccines
05/11/2010
45. Immunoprophylaxis against Hepatitis B Virus Infection-Summary Hepatitis B vaccines are safe and very effective for infants and children
Timely completion of case management with hepatitis B vaccine and HBIG prevents 90% - 95% chronic HBV infections acquired in the first year of life
Revaccination effectively induces protection in 85% - 95% of non-responding infants
05/11/2010
46. Immunoprophylaxis to Prevent Perinatal Hepatitis B Infection (PEP)-Conclusion Preventing chronic HBV infection prevents development of debilitating liver cirrhosis, hepatocellular cancer, and reduces the reservoir of persons transmitting hepatitis B infection
Immunoprophylaxis for perinatal infections is life saving and cost-effective
