Filter by: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.
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.
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.
The objective of this 96-week study was to evaluate the safety and antiviral efficacy of emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/TDF, coformulated; Truvada®) with or without hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIg) in preventing the recurrence of chronic hepatitis B following liver transplantation, in participants who were chronically infected with hepatitis B prior to transplantation. Prior to enrollment, participants were required to have received at least 12 weeks of HBIg therapy following liver transplantation. Enrolled participants then received FTC/TDF plus HBIg for an initial 24-week pre-randomization treatment period. Participants who completed the pre-randomization period and who achieved sustained viral suppression were randomized to continue treatment with FTC/TDF with or without HBIg for an additional 72 weeks (randomized period). The antiviral efficacy of treatment was assessed by measuring hepatitis B virus levels in the blood (HBV DNA). Safety and tolerability was monitored by assessing adverse events and various laboratory parameters.
The main objective of the study was to evaluate the antiviral activity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF) monotherapy versus emtricitabine (FTC) plus tenofovir DF combination therapy for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (HBV) in participants in the immune tolerant phase of HBV infection. The efficacy of tenofovir DF monotherapy versus FTC plus tenofovir DF combination therapy was evaluated for suppression of the virus (decrease in HBV DNA), serological response (generation of antibodies to the virus), biochemical response (changes in liver enzymes), and the development of drug-resistant mutations. The safety and tolerability of both tenofovir DF monotherapy and FTC plus tenofovir DF were evaluated by routine monitoring for adverse events and changes in laboratory parameters. Participants were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive tenofovir DF monotherapy or FTC plus tenofovir DF. All subjects were to continue on blinded study medication until the last subject reached Week 192. Participants who permanently discontinued study drug (on or before Week 192) were followed for a 24-week treatment-free follow-up period, or until initiation of alternative HBV therapy, whichever occurred first. Subjects who discontinued study drug on or after Week 48 because of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss or seroconversion to antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs), however, were to have returned for their regularly scheduled through Week 192 and every 16 weeks thereafter until the last subject reached Week 192.
This study is to evaluate the safety of telbivudine for up to 21 months of open-label treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis B who have completed the CLDT600A2407 trial. Patients treated with telbivudine during core phase will continue telbivudine and patients treated with entecavir during core phase will be switched to telbivudine if the patient is willing to enroll this study.
This 48-week open-label study of local manufactured adefovir dipivoxil Tablet evaluates the efficacy and safety of adefovir 10mg once daily in Chinese subjects with compensated CHB. Primary endpoint is proportion of subjects achieving HBV DNA undetectable (<=1000 copies/mL by by Roche COBAS AMPLICOR HBV MONITOR Test) at week 48. Approximately 1250 patients will be recruited in 30 study centers in China. The subjects are offered 48 weeks of open label adefovir dipivoxil treatment, with assessments every three months, after with is a 12-week post study treatment follow-up prior to study completion.
This exploratory study is designed to determine the early viral kinetic profile during treatment with telbivudine or entecavir at multiple time points over 12 weeks.
