About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Chronic Hepatitis B focused on measuring HBeAg-positive, chronic, Hepatitis B, lamivudine, seroconversion, Chronic Hepatitis B
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion criteria: Untreated chronic hepatitis B patients with evidence of HBV replication as documented by serum HNV-DNA positive within 3 months prior to entry and serum HBeAg positive at screening. Documented presence of abnormal alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (1.3 - 5X upper limit normal (ULN)) within 1 month prior to entry and signs of compensated liver disease. Exclusion criteria: Patients with any cause for liver disease other than chronic hepatitis B and evidence or history of decompensated liver disease.
