Evaluation of Antibody Persistence and Immune Memory Against the Hepatitis B Antigen in Previously Vaccinated Children

This study will evaluate the persistence of immunity to hepatitis B 10 to 11 years after vaccination with Infanrix hexa™ or Engerix™-B and also the ability to mount an immune response to the challenge dose of Engerix™-B.
