Filter by:The purpose of this study is to support the clinical value of entecavir by assessing the relationship between viral load and histological improvement.
To investigate the influence of hepatic steatosis on the anti-viral effect of entecavir in chronic hepatitis B patients.
This study is a multi-center, randomized, open-label and positive controlled Phase II Clinical trial to assess efficacy and safety of Ypeginterferon alfa-2b, once a week, in 3 dose-groups: 90mcg, 135mcg and 180mcg, respectively, for treatment of chronic hepatitis B characterized by HBeAg positivity, with Pegasys 180mcg/week as positive control. It is aimed to establish a dose response and safety relationship sufficient to allow the subsequent design and conduct of Phase III trials, and generate pharmacokinetic data of Ypeginterferon alfa-2b in hepatitis B patients to satisfy regulatory requirements.
This is to evaluate the proportion of subjects who show good responses to LAM treatment in Korea.
This study was designed for changes in endotoxaemia, endotoxin-binding factors, sICAM-1 (soluble intracellular adhesion molecule-1), and cytokines during progression of chronic HBV infection. Patients with chronic HBV infection and healthy control are included. A limulus assay was used to measure plasma endotoxin level and ELISAs were used to measure the concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα), sICAM-1, and soluble CD14 (sCD14).
The purpose of this study is to develop and characterize immunological assays on blood samples.
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of 2 different durations of treatment with PEGASYS, in patients with HBeAg-negative chronic HBV. It will also compare PEGASYS treatment alone and in combination with lamivudine. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This observational long-term follow-up study will evaluate demographic, clinical, histological, biochemical, and virological parameters of patients with chronic hepatitis B and low viremia who do not require antiviral therapy according to current guidelines. Liver stiffness values as detected by FibroScan and ARFI will also be collected if available. All data will be collected at yearly intervals (minimum). Patients included in the study are followed for up to 10 years. The target sample size is <1000.
The purpose of this study is to compare the adefovir early add-on to rescue therapy strategy, and also explore the efficacy of Lamivudine and adefovir de-novo combination therapy.
This open-label, multi-center study will evaluate the effect on the quantitative HBsAg reduction of peginterferon alfa-2a [PEGASYS] in patients with HBeAg positive chronic hepatitis B. Patients will receive PEGASYS 180 mcg sc once weekly. After 24 weeks of treatment, rapid responders will receive another 24 weeks of treatment. After 24 weeks of treatment, slow responders will be randomized to another 24 or 72 weeks of PEGASYS monotherapy, or to 72 weeks PEGASYS plus 36 weeks adefovir (10 mg, po once daily, starting from week 29 of PEGASYS treatment). The anticipated time on study drug is >2 years.
