Filter by:This is a non-interventional retrospective multi-center study for the patients received Entekavir or TDF for Hepatitis B prophylaxis.
Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has been approved to prevent HBV reactivation for HBsAg-positive cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. However, the real-world effectiveness and safety of TAF for cancer patients was lacing. Therefore, we conduct a prospective single arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TAF as a prophylactic antiviral agent for HBsAg-positive cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.
We will conduct a phase 4, multicenter, open-label trial at 7 academic centers in Taiwan. Chronic hepatitis B patients receiving oral antiviral therapy (entecavir [ETV], tenofovir disoproxil fumarate [TDF]) for at least 2 years, and fulfil the following nucleos(t)ide analogs discontinuation criteria. After nucleos(t)ide analogs discontinuation, patients had a clinical relapse and retreatment regimen switches to TAF. The protocol will be approved by Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Research ethic committee (REC) of each site and will be conducted in accordance with the principles of Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization for Good Clinical Practice. Each patient provides written informed consent before enrollment.
Anti-HBc positive liver donors frequently have occult HBV infection, and several studies in HBsAg-negative subjects have shown that there is often the detection in the liver of covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA). In the setting of liver transplantation and immunosuppresion, grafts from antiHBc positive donors may cause de novo HBV infection (defined by the development of positive HBsAg and/or detectable serum or liver HBV DNA in previously HBsAg recipients). Active immunization may be successful in up to 20% of patients who received an anti-HBc+ liver during transplantation after the first vaccination schedule, and up to 30% after a second vaccination course. Responders to vaccination could safely halt nucleos(t)ide analog prophylactic therapy with no risk of HBV reactivation during follow-up. We also hypothesize that an impaired antigen-specific adaptive cell-mediated immunity at baseline explain the lack of response Primary objective: 1. To investigate the efficacy of HBV vaccination in liver transplant recipients who received a liver from an anti-HBc positive donor. 2. To assess the safety of nucleos(t)ide treatment interruption in those patients achieving a response to HBV vaccination
The aim of this study is to prove the superiority of entecavir over lamivudine for preventing the risk of hepatitis B virus reactivation in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma on CHOP/R-CHOP.
