Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator), Primary Purpose: Prevention

Primary outcome: Immunogenicity and interchangeability of two inactivated hepatitis A vaccines

Secondary outcome: safety of two inactivated hepatitis A vaccines

Detailed description: This was a monocenter, comparative trial in which healthy children were randomized to receive two doses of hepatitis A vaccine 6 months apart. The trial was conducted in accordance with the Edinburgh version of the Declaration of Helsinki. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee.
