Filter by:BACKGROUND: Finite nucleos(t)ide analogue (Nuc) therapy was proposed as an alternative strategy in the management of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) but there remained not data from randomized controlled trials to clarify safety and efficacy of this treatment strategy. AIMS: The investigators aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of finite Nuc therapy versus continuous treatment in CHB patients without liver cirrhosis and also to identify factors that may predict therapeutic responses and clinical outcomes after withdrawal of Nuc treatment for CHB MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial conducted in Taiwan. Eligible patients are adults (age≥20 years) with CHB (chronic infection ≥ 6 months) who fulfill the APASL guideline 2016 to stop NA therapy. Those with cirrhosis, malignancy, organ transplant, autoimmune disorder, or serious underlying diseases including renal impairment were excluded. A total of 360 patients will be enrolled. Enrolled patients are randomly allocated with a 1:1 ratio to continue viral suppression with entecavir (0.5mg once daily) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (300mg once daily) or stop the treatment. All patients will be followed up according to the protocol recommended by a panel of APASL experts. The primary analysis for study outcomes is scheduled at 3 years after randomization and the primary outcome is seroclearance of HBsAg. There will be interim analyses scheduled at one- and two-years following randomization of the first 200 patients, and also one-and two years following randomization of the planned 360 patients, to determine whether early termination of the trial may be justified by attainment of the efficacy endpoint (10% vs 1% of HBsAg seroclearance) or concerns of the safety outcomes (significant between-group difference in mortality, acute on chronic liver failure, or acute flares with hepatic decompensation).
This is a two-way (retrospective and prospective) study of COVID-19 infection in an observational cohort of patients with chronic hepatitis B treated with antiviral therapy. Patients with chronic hepatitis B who received anti-HBV treatment in the Second Department of Hepatology, Beijing Ditan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from February 2022 to December 2023 were enrolled. After enrollment, demographic data of patients, information on antiviral treatment of chronic hepatitis B, COVID-19 vaccination, COVID-19 infection and COVID-19 incidence and treatment from January 2022 to pre enrollment, and data on HBV virus and serology, clinical biochemistry, liver and lung imaging, COVID-19 nucleic acid and COVID-19 antibody examination of patients were collected. After enrollment, prospective anti-HBV treatment, HBV virology, clinical biochemistry, liver imaging and COVID-19 infection and morbidity were observed. The patients with COVID-19 infection during the prospective observation period were observed for COVID-19 infection, onset and treatment, including body temperature, clinical symptoms, signs, cardiac examination, pulmonary imaging, COVID-19, clinical biochemistry, disease severity, time of virus negative conversion, hospital stay and outcome. The influence of COVID-19 infection on liver disease and the influence of interferon anti-HBV treatment on COVID-19 infection, its pathogenesis and prognosis were studied.
Totals of 400 chronic hepatitis B or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients with or without cirrhosis will be enrolled. Patients' clinical characteristics, including alanine aminotransferase, aspartic aminotransferase, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubin, triglyceride and total cholesterol, hepatitis B surface antigen, steatosis, and liver stiffness measurement will be collected. The consistence of liver fibrosis and steatosis assessment between Hepatus and FibroScan will be evaluated in this study.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major public health threat in China. At present, a functional cure, also known as clinical cure or sustained Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss, is recommended as the ideal endpoint of HBV treatment. However, HBsAg loss can be achieved in less than 10% of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients treated with current available antiviral drug interferon (IFNα) or nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) monotherapy. With the support of the national major special funding for infectious diseases from "11th Five-Year Plan" to "13th Five-Year Plan", we have implemented a pioneer clinical study of sequential combination of IFNα therapy on NAs to treat NAs-treated CHB patients (ie. New Switch Study). This is the world's first clinical trial aiming to functional cure, which increased the rate of HBsAg loss to 15% in the overall population in our study, and to 30-50% among those with lower baseline HBsAg levels. How to further improve the HBsAg loss rate is an urgent issue for us. The key point of achieving functional cure is to reverse the HBV-specific T cell exhaustion and establish the long-term immune control against HBV infection. (Programmed death-1) PD-1/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) axis blockade has been demonstrated to reinvigorate exhausted CD8+ T cells, and would be a potential strategy to treat chronic HBV infection. In this study, a large multicenter prospective study will be performed to explore the safety and efficacy of a novel combination strategy involving immune checkpoint inhibitor (anti-PD-1 antibody) and IFNα in CHB patients, observe the HBsAg loss rate in NA-treated CHB patients receiving this combination strategy, evaluate the potential of breaking immune tolerance by this strategy, and further assess its efficacy to further improve the clinical cure rate on the basis of New Switch Study. Based on New Switch Study, this study further attempts to reverse T cell exhaustion in CHB patients, explore a novel platform of combination therapy development for clinical cure, and ultimately increase the HBsAg loss rate to higher than 50% in overall patients. The implementation of the project is expected to reduce the burden of HBV infection in China and contribute to the goal of global elimination of hepatitis B and C by 2030 (WHO 2030).
The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about GS-2829 and GS-6779 in healthy participants and participants with CHB.

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) affects an estimated 292 million people, and causes approximately 800,000 people deaths per year from liver-related complications including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, remaining a major global public health issue.Meanwhile, with the improvement of living standards and changes in lifestyle and dietary habits, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become another important cause of liver cirrhosis and HCC.HBV combined with NAFLD inevitably develops into continuous or intermittent liver inflammation and fibrosis, which greatly increases the risk of cirrhosis, liver cancer and even end-stage liver disease. We aimed to investigate the risk factors and establish diagnostic models for hepatic inflammation, fibrosis in patients with CHB associated NAFLD. In addition, to find risk factors for liver cirrhosis, liver cancer or liver failure in patients with CHB-related NAFLD.
