a

Immunogenicity data missing for one participant.

b

No participant had a booster at Visit 1. Following Visit 1, 6 participants had low anti-HAV concentrations and received a booster dose – these participants were included in the 1 dose/booster set at Visit 2. Following Visit 3, 1 participant had low anti-HAV concentration and received a booster dose – this participant was included in the 1 dose/booster set at Visit 4. Following Visit 4, 1 participant had low anti-HAV concentration and received a booster dose – this participant was included in the 1 dose/booster set at Visit 5.

c

Sample taken at the indicated visit.

d

Sample taken after the booster regardless of the time window between booster and blood sampling.

n, number of subjects; M, number of participants with available data; CI, confidence interval; GMC, geometric mean concentration (mIU/mL); GMCR, geometric mean concentration ratio against Year 1 (not applicable for Year 7 due to different assays used for Years 1 to 5 [MEIA] and Year 7 [ECLIA]) or post-/pre-booster for Group 3; NC, not calculated (as only 1 participant).
