Filter by:This is a randomized, open-labelled, prospective 96-week study comparing the antiviral efficacy and safety of switching to entecavir 1 mg QD from lamivudine versus maintaining lamivudine 100 mg QD treatment in HBV-infected subjects currently receiving lamivudine monotherapy.
This is a randomized, open-labelled, prospective 96-week study comparing the antiviral efficacy and safety of switching to entecavir 0.5mg QD from lamivudine versus maintaining lamivudine 100mg QD treatment in CHB patients currently receiving lamivudine monotherapy.
This 3 arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of PEGASYS + entecavir combination therapy in treatment-naive patients with HBeAg positive chronic hepatitis B. Patients will be randomized to receive 1)PEGASYS 180 micrograms s.c./week for 48 weeks, 2)PEGASYS 180 micrograms s.c./week for 48 weeks + entecavir 0.5mg p.o. once daily from week 13 to week 36 or 3) entecavir 0.5mg p.o. once daily for 24 weeks + PEGASYS 180 micrograms s.c./week from week 21 to 68. Treatment will be followed by 24 weeks treatment-free follow up. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months for groups 1 and 2, and 1-2 years for group 3, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
A open-labeled phase lV study with 96 weeks of treatment period. The purpose of this study is to investigate safety and efficacy of clevudine in patients chronically infected with hepatitis B virus, HBeAg positive or negative.
A multi-center and open study to compare the safety and effectiveness of switching treatment from lamivudine to clevudine for 24 weeks.
This study is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy of add-on adefovir to telbivudine in non-responders to telbivudine monotherapy after 24 and 36 initial weeks. Antiviral efficacy is assessed by hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA non-detectability (PCR <300 copies/ml) by week 104 with CHB.
The purpose of this study is to determine if DNA vaccination of chronic HBV patients under treatment with NRTI can restore T-cell responsiveness and delay virologic reactivation after treatment discontinuation.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of two dosages of PegIntron for treating hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) positive chronic hepatitis B compared with the approved dosage, which is PegIntron 1.0 microgram (mcg)/kg given once a week for 24 weeks. This study compares dosages of (1) 1.5 mcg/kg once a week for 24 weeks and (2) 1.5 mcg/kg once a week for 48 weeks with the approved dosage. All subjects are followed for 24 weeks after their treatment ends.
Antiviral resistance mutations limit the efficacy of therapy for chronic hepatitis B. At year 2, resistance to adefovir may occur as high as 25% in patients with history of lamivudine resistance. Resistance to entecavir is reported to be 10% in lamivudine refractory patients during the same period. However, combination of lamivudine and adefovir decreased the adefovir resistance rate as low as 0% in the recent studies. By overcoming the antiviral resistance, the efficacy of therapy will be maximized. This study is intended to compare the efficacy of two strategies, combination of lamivudine and adefovir vs. entecavir monotherapy in patients with lamivudine resistance.
This study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a novel mixed plasmid DNA (HB-110) combined with an antiviral agent (Adefovir) for the patients with chronic Hepatitis B infection.
