Filter by:This is an open label, single-arm, multi-centre extension study for Korean patients with chronic hepatitis B and compensated liver disease who have completed one-year adefovir dipivoxil treatment in ADF103814. The objective is to assess clinical efficacy and safety of long term (up to 3 years) adefovir dipivoxil 10mg therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level on intrahepatic recurrence in locally treatable hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) related with HBV.
Entecavir, 0.5 mg daily, will have clinical efficacy (assessed as an undetectable hepatitis B DNA, <300 copies/mL, by Roche Comprehensive Bio-Analytical System Amplicor polymerase chain reaction assay) that is comparable (noninferior) and potentially superior to lamivudine, 100 mg once daily, in adults with hepatitis B e antigen-negative chronic hepatitis B virus infection.
The purpose of this study is to prospectively assess the long-term outcomes (benefits and risks) associated with entecavir (ETV) therapy as compared to other antivirals approved for the treatment of chronic HBV infection. For the China substudy, patients randomized to entecavir will have safety and efficacy assessments performed during the first year of the study.
The efficacy of lamivudine in Hepatitis Be Antigen (HBeAg) positive Asian patients of chronic hepatitis has been well established.The evidence in HBeAg negative patients is limited. Limited sustained response was observed post-treatment following a one year treatment period. Whether these results can be applied to patients in Iran is uncertain. This study is therefore intended to further assess the efficacy profile after two years of open treatment in the adult Iranian population.
This 36-month open-label study of adefovir dipivoxil investigates the clinical benefits of the therapy in chronic hepatitis B patients with advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis confirmed with biopsy. Primary endpoint is histological improvement defined as a decrease of Ishak Fibrosis Score by one point or more from baseline at Month 36 of adefovir dipivoxil treatment. Approximately 150 patients will be recruited in study centres in the Asia Pacific area. The patients are offered 36 months of open label adefovir dipivoxil treatment, with assessments every three months, after which there is a 6-month post study treatment follow-up prior to study completion. After the 36 months of study treatment, it is likely that the patient will benefit from continued treatment with adefovir dipivoxil. If this is the case in the investigators clinical judgement, the investigator should ensure that a routine prescription is available in a timely manner, and that no unnecessary interruption in treatment occurs.
The aim is to investigate whether Lamivudine 100mg daily is effective in the long term treatment of HBeAg negative chronic HBV infected patients with active liver disease in Asia
This is a phase IV, 2-year, multi-center, single arm and open-label study, evaluating the efficacy and safety with using local manufactured adefovir dipivoxil in Chinese subjects with HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B
This study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of adefovir dipivoxil 10 mg with lamivudine 100 mg in Japanese patients with compensated chronic hepatitis B over 52-week periods.
This study explores the efficacy, safety and tolerability of tenofovir DF (TDF) 300 mg once daily monotherapy versus the combination of emtricitabine 200 mg plus tenofovir DF 300 mg (FTC/TDF) once daily in subjects currently being treated with adefovir dipivoxil (Hepsera) for chronic hepatitis B who have persistent viral replication (detectable hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid [HBV DNA]). Subjects with confirmed (within 4 weeks) plasma HBV DNA ≥ 400 copies/mL during double blind treatment at Week 24 or any time thereafter have the option of receiving 12 weeks of open-label FTC/TDF which may be continued through the end of the 168-week treatment period if there is a virologic response (HBV DNA < 400 copies/mL). Alternatively, subjects with confirmed HBV DNA < 400 copies/mL at or any time after Week 24 of double-blind treatment may continue blinded therapy up to Week 168 at the discretion of the investigator. If, in the investigator's opinion, it is felt that continued blinded treatment beyond 24 weeks in subjects with confirmed HBV DNA ≥ 400 copies/mL is not beneficial, the subject may discontinue the study and begin commercially available HBV therapy rather than initiate open-label FTC/TDF.
