Filter by:Antiviral treatment on Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) patients with liver cirrhosis is compulsory and effective. Telbivudine, which is superior to lamivudine in the treatment of CHB,is considered to be appropriate for the antiviral treatment on CHB patients with liver cirrhosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety following the Roadmap Concept strategy with an initial monotherapy using either telbivudine or tenofovir in HBeAg negative CHB patients. The data from the study should allow for the validation of the Roadmap concept in a prospective manner, for both telbivudine and tenofovir treated HBeAg negative CHB patients. As part of a post-approval commitment to the European Health Authorities, the data will also be used to provide an optimized clinical treatment strategy for better clinical use of telbivudine in European HBeAg negative patients. Furthermore, the data from the study will contribute to a better scientific understanding, disease management and treatment of HBeAg negative CHB patients.
The purpose of this study is to confirm efficacy and safety when administering lamivudine tablet alone in subjects with hepatitis B virus-induced liver cirrhosis.
The general objective of the present clinical trial is to compare the therapeutic efficacy of a combination therapeutic vaccine containing hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg) [later called NASVAC] with a commonly used antiviral drug, pegylated interferon in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).
This study intends to investigate whether addition of PEG-IFN alfa-2a in HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B patients who are pretreated with nucleos(t)ide analogues enhances the degree of HBsAg decline.
This clinical trial compares the efficacy of peginterferon plus tenofovir for 24 weeks followed by monotherapy with tenofovir for a further 3.5 years to the efficacy of tenofovir alone given for 4 years in patients with chronic hepatitis B. The primary measure of outcome will be HBsAg loss in serum at 48 weeks after stopping all antiviral therapy (sustained off-treatment response).
The investigators evaluated the safety and efficacy of a short lead-in course (8 weeks) of entecavir followed by combination of entecavir plus peginterferon alfa-2a for 40 weeks.
This is a multi-center cohort study in which the Real-time Tissue Elastography® measurements will predict prospectively the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma, the incidence and severity of gastroesophageal varices ascites and decompensated cirrhosis in hepatitis B or C patients.
This is a multi-center cross-sectional study in which the Real-time Tissue Elastography® measurements will be collected prospectively from patients with chronic hepatitis B or C virus presenting for liver biopsy.
The purpose of this observational study is to measure the real-life persistence, adherence and clinical effectiveness of entecavir in patients with chronic Hepatitis B viral infection.
