A Study to Assess the Anamnestic Immune Response in Healthy 4 to 7 Year-old Children After a Primary Vaccination Series With Either HEXAVAC® or INFANRIX®-HEXA

Primary objective:

* To describe in subjects vaccinated with 3 doses of HEXAVAC® or 3 doses of INFANRIX®-HEXA during the first two years of life the percentage of subjects with an anti-HBs antibody titre ≥10 mIU/mL 1 month after a booster dose of either HBVaxPRO® 5 µg or Engerix B® 10 µg .

Secondary objectives:

* Additional immunogenicity assessments * Standard safety assessment.
