Filter by:This is a nonrandomized, open-label, no-control, dose-escalation Phase 1b trial in 18 patients with chronic HBV infection to determine the safety, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of QL-007 after administration over 28 days of multiple oral doses in a fasted state at the following planned dose levels: 200 mg/day (100 mg two times a day (BID)), 400 mg/day (200 mg BID), then 600 mg once daily (QD), with 6 patients for each cohort.
Treatment of CHB patients with genotypic resistance to NUCs has been problematic due to the lack of data from randomized trials. Recently, two randomized trials comparing the efficacy of TDF monotherapy versus TDF and ETV combination therapy in CHB patients with documented genotypic resistance to adefovir (ADV) or ETV demonstrated TDF monotherapy was not statistically different in viral suppression at week 48 of treatment.1,2 The extension study based on the above two trials merged study subjects from these trials with changing from TDF and ETV combination group to TDF monotherapy to evaluate long-term efficacy and safety of TDF monotherapy for multidrug-resistant patients. At the time of merging of 192 subjects, by intention-to-treat analysis, 66.3% of TDF group and 68.0% of TDF-ETV group had virological response as determined by serum HBV DNA <15 IU/mL. (in press) Three year long-term follow up study showed that the proportion of virologic suppression increased to 76.8% and 72.2% in TDF-TDF and TDF/TDF-ETV groups, respectively( P=0.46). (in press) TAF, a novel prodrug of tenofovir was developed to have greater stability in plasma than TDF, thereby enabling more efficient delivery of the active metabolite to target cells at a substantially lower dose. The reduced systemic exposure of tenofovir offers the potential for an improved safety profile compared to TDF a benefit that demonstrated in a recent clinical trial in patients with HIV infection. In a recent double-blind randomized phase 3 noninferiority trial with 873 treatment naive patients who were positive for HBeAg, the proportion of patients receiving TAF who had HBV DNA <29 IU/mL at week 48 was 64%, which was non-inferior to the rate of 67% in patients receiving TDF (P=0.25).3 In the safety profile, TAF group had significantly smaller decrease in BMD than TDF group in the hip and spine, as well as significantly smaller increases in serum creatinine at week 48.3 For treatment naive HBeAg negative patients, a recent study with 425 subjects applied the same methodology and showed noninferiority in efficacy of TAF compared to TDF at week 48.4 Considering noninferiority in efficacy and superior bone and renal safety from TAF, TAF might be considered preferred choice of NUC instead of TDF. However, it is still unknown whether TAF would show similar efficacy and safety profile in patients with multidrug-resistant CHB.
This study aims at estimating the prevalence of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in rural Senegal (area of Niakhar) and at evaluating the associated burden in terms of both health-related and socio-economic consequences.
The majority of childbearing age women with hepatitis B virus infection were still in the immune tolerance period. Our recent research had shown that most puerperae after delivery had elevated ALT level. However, there is no withdrawal time recommendations after childbirth at present.Through the study of hepatitis occurrence after delivery and drug withdrawal, the investigators explore the withdrawal time of antiviral treatment during pregnancy.
Pregnant women carry high HBV DNA loads before delivery, which is the most important factor leading to mother-to-child transmission of HBV. Nucleoside analogue antiviral treatment during late pregnancy can significantly reduce the incidence of HBV MTCT, but security problems of using NA treatment during pregnancy has not been eliminated, Therefore, the aim of our study is to explore the effect of starting to use Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate(TDF) antiviral treatment from the 32 weeks of gestation to block mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus(HBV MTCT).
Mother-to-Child-Transmission (MTCT) of HBV is the most important route in high endemic countries. Although active-passive immune prophylaxis is generally administrated to infants delivered by HBsAg positive women, there are a lot of people infected with HBV in China. High HBV DNA load (>10^5IU/ml) is the vital cause of MTCT. So some researchers used TDF (tenofovir) or LDT(telbivudine) to treat patients with high HBV DNA load during middle, late pregnancy, in order to decrease MTCT. As a result, some data about it were gradually reported in late years. Recently, American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, European Association for the Study of Liver Diseases and China guidelines for CHB (chronic hepatitis B) suggest that pregnant women with high HBV DNA load be treated with TDF or LDT at 24-28 weeks of gestation to lower MTCT of HBV. Although TDF or LDT is classified as pregnancy B drugs by FDA, and many studies report that MTCT rate of HBV decreases after women with high HBV DNA load are administrated with TDF or LDT at 24-28 weeks of gestation, a few birth defects are reported. Furthermore, the long-effect of TDF or LDT on infants remains unclear thoroughly. Some CHB women had severe liver dysfunction before pregnancy or during pregnancy, and routine liver protection therapy could not effect. Some of them could develop into liver failure, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and even died. Moreover, severe liver dysfunction often leads to adverse effects to pregnant women and fetuses, such as pregnancy failure, lower weight, premature birth, etc. As a result, these women have to accept TDF or LDT before pregnancy, or during early pregnancy. So the long-effect of TDF or LDT on infants needs thoroughly investigating. Taken together, the investigators will enroll women with chronic HBV infection and evaluate their state of illness. Then the investigators treat participants with TDF or LDT or routine liver protection therapy, and follow up the participants for a long period. The investigators' objectives are as follows: A, To clarify efficacy and adverse effects of TDF/LDT in preventing MTCT between immune-tolerant and immune-active CHB patients. B, To clarify efficacy and adverse effects of TDF/LDT in preventing MTCT during different trimesters of pregnancy. C, To compare MTCT rate between patients received TDF/LDT therapy and patients without TDF/LDT therapy. D, To compare MTCT rate and adverse effects between LDT and TDF.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability and virologic response of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) in virologically suppressed chronic hepatitis B participants with renal and/or hepatic impairment.
Conduct in Chinese healthy adult subjects:1.To observe the safety and tolerability of multiple-dose oral administration of different doses of PNA;2.By measuring the changing drug concentration in the plasma and urine after a single oral administration of different doses of PNA on the condition of fasting, the pharmacokinetic parameters of the single dose are estimated;3.By measuring the changing drug concentration in the plasma of PNA after a multiple-dose oral administration on the condition of fasting, the pharmacokinetic parameters of multiple-dose are estimated, and a basis for dosage regimens of the clinical research phase Ⅱ is provided;4.To study the effects of diet on the pharmacokinetic parameters via the changes of concentration of PNA in plasma after high-fat and high-calorie food.
