Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis B, Chronic"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antiviral activity and safety of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in Asian-American adults (self-reported Asian descent, living in the United States) with chronic hepatitis B infection. All participants will receive active treatment with TDF for 48 weeks.

To provide open-label entecavir to subjects who have completed previous blinded entecavir trials in Japan and are assessed by the investigator as likely to benefit from additional anti-hepatitis B therapy

The objectives are to demonstrate that entecavir has antiviral activity undetectable HBV DNA measured, the Roche AmplicorTM PCR at Week 48, and to assess the safety and the pharmacokinetic of entecavir in Japanese patients with hepatitis B who have an incomplete response to current lamivudine therapy

The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of peginterferon alfa-2b 1.5 mcg/kg/week administered for 52 weeks (wk) in previously untreated participants coinfected with hepatitis virus B and D. After 52-week treatment and 52-week follow-up, the virologic, biochemical, and histological response will be evaluated.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of 12 weeks of treatment with telbivudine 600 mg daily plus tenofovir DF 300 mg once daily (QD) taken together versus tenofovir DF 300 mg once daily (QD) or versus telbivudine 600 mg monotherapy daily (QD). This is an open-labeled, active controlled, viral kinetics study which means the subjects and study doctor will know what study drug subjects have been assigned. This study is open to male and female subjects, <40 years of age, who have been infected with HBV for at least 6 months and have not received oral treatment for HBV.

Compare the safety of four oral doses of pradefovir after 48 weeks of treatment Select the dose of pradefovir for Phase 3 studies

This 3 arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of PEGASYS + entecavir combination therapy in treatment-naive patients with HBeAg positive chronic hepatitis B. Patients will be randomized to receive 1)PEGASYS 180 micrograms s.c./week for 48 weeks, 2)PEGASYS 180 micrograms s.c./week for 48 weeks + entecavir 0.5mg p.o. once daily from week 13 to week 36 or 3) entecavir 0.5mg p.o. once daily for 24 weeks + PEGASYS 180 micrograms s.c./week from week 21 to 68. Treatment will be followed by 24 weeks treatment-free follow up. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months for groups 1 and 2, and 1-2 years for group 3, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.

This is a phase IV, 2-year, multi-center, single arm and open-label study, evaluating the efficacy and safety with using local manufactured adefovir dipivoxil in Chinese subjects with HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B

This is a multi-center phase 3, open-label, parallel-group study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of adefovir dipivoxil liquid suspension in patients with chronic hepatitis B and varying degrees of renal impairment.

This trial is being done to see if the investigational drug, LdT (Telbivudine), is safe and effective in the treatment of hepatitis B infection. In addition to this, we will be looking at the comparison of the effects (good and bad) of LdT and lamivudine.
