Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis B, Chronic"

Conduct in Chinese healthy adult subjects:1.To observe the safety and tolerability of multiple-dose oral administration of different doses of PNA;2.By measuring the changing drug concentration in the plasma and urine after a single oral administration of different doses of PNA on the condition of fasting, the pharmacokinetic parameters of the single dose are estimated;3.By measuring the changing drug concentration in the plasma of PNA after a multiple-dose oral administration on the condition of fasting, the pharmacokinetic parameters of multiple-dose are estimated, and a basis for dosage regimens of the clinical research phase Ⅱ is provided;4.To study the effects of diet on the pharmacokinetic parameters via the changes of concentration of PNA in plasma after high-fat and high-calorie food.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability and virologic response of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) in virologically suppressed chronic hepatitis B participants with renal and/or hepatic impairment.

Treatment of CHB patients with genotypic resistance to NUCs has been problematic due to the lack of data from randomized trials. Recently, two randomized trials comparing the efficacy of TDF monotherapy versus TDF and ETV combination therapy in CHB patients with documented genotypic resistance to adefovir (ADV) or ETV demonstrated TDF monotherapy was not statistically different in viral suppression at week 48 of treatment.1,2 The extension study based on the above two trials merged study subjects from these trials with changing from TDF and ETV combination group to TDF monotherapy to evaluate long-term efficacy and safety of TDF monotherapy for multidrug-resistant patients. At the time of merging of 192 subjects, by intention-to-treat analysis, 66.3% of TDF group and 68.0% of TDF-ETV group had virological response as determined by serum HBV DNA <15 IU/mL. (in press) Three year long-term follow up study showed that the proportion of virologic suppression increased to 76.8% and 72.2% in TDF-TDF and TDF/TDF-ETV groups, respectively( P=0.46). (in press) TAF, a novel prodrug of tenofovir was developed to have greater stability in plasma than TDF, thereby enabling more efficient delivery of the active metabolite to target cells at a substantially lower dose. The reduced systemic exposure of tenofovir offers the potential for an improved safety profile compared to TDF a benefit that demonstrated in a recent clinical trial in patients with HIV infection. In a recent double-blind randomized phase 3 noninferiority trial with 873 treatment naive patients who were positive for HBeAg, the proportion of patients receiving TAF who had HBV DNA <29 IU/mL at week 48 was 64%, which was non-inferior to the rate of 67% in patients receiving TDF (P=0.25).3 In the safety profile, TAF group had significantly smaller decrease in BMD than TDF group in the hip and spine, as well as significantly smaller increases in serum creatinine at week 48.3 For treatment naive HBeAg negative patients, a recent study with 425 subjects applied the same methodology and showed noninferiority in efficacy of TAF compared to TDF at week 48.4 Considering noninferiority in efficacy and superior bone and renal safety from TAF, TAF might be considered preferred choice of NUC instead of TDF. However, it is still unknown whether TAF would show similar efficacy and safety profile in patients with multidrug-resistant CHB.

The study is an open-label, randomized, comparative, multicenter clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of ABX203, a new chronic hepatitis B therapeutic vaccine administered as an adjunct therapy to nucleos(t)ide analogs (NUCs), in maintaining control of Hepatitis B disease after cessation of treatment with NUCs in subjects with HBeAg negative chronic Hepatitis B.

Telbivudine reduces DNA and normalizes alanine aminotransferase levels (ALT) in chronic hepatitis B patients with few adverse effects, but its use during pregnancy has not been explored. In this open-label, prospective study from the second trimester to post-partum week 28. This trial is to study the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Telbivudine in HBeAg Positive Chronic Hepatitis B Pregnant Women with high level of serum HBV DNA and elevated alanine aminotransferase levels.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) plus peginterferon α-2a (Peg-IFN) combination therapy for 48 weeks versus standard of care TDF monotherapy or Peg-IFN monotherapy for 48 weeks in non-cirrhotic adults with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) as determined by loss of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). The study will consist of 2 phases for participants in the TDF+Peg-IFN 48 Weeks, TDF 48 Weeks + Peg-IFN 16 Weeks, and Peg-IFN 48 Weeks groups. Following an initial 48 weeks of treatment, participants in these groups will be monitored for 24 weeks for signs of worsening HBV, and those meeting TDF retreatment and flare management criteria will be eligible to receive TDF monotherapy during a retreatment phase, up to Week 120.

This study will provide a rationale for switch from lamivudine plus adefovir to tenofovir monotherapy in Lamivudine plus Adefovir Treated Lamivudine-resistant chronic hepatitis B patients with Undetectable Hepatitis B Virus DNA

With the availability of potent nucloes(t)ide analogues (NA), such as tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and entecavir (ETV), suppression of serum HBV DNA to undetectable levels by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays became achievable in most NA treatment-naïve patients. Until recently, however, many patients commenced antiviral treatment with inferior NAs prior to the availability of TDF or ETV, such as lamivudine (LAM) or adefovir (ADV) which has a low genetic barrier to resistance. For patients who developed genotypic resistance against ADV, the efficacy of TDF monotherapy is controversial. In recent studies, TDF monotherapy produced significant suppression of HBV replication. However, only half of patients with initial ADV resistance achieved an undetectable viral load (<15 IU/ml) with 48 weeks of therapy. On the other hand, there was a retrospective cohort study reporting that, with the combination of TDF and ETV, most of patients became HBV DNA undetectable after median 6 months of treatment. Probability of reaching complete HBV DNA suppression was not decreased in patients with ADV or ETV resistance. Together, these observations indicate that there is a controversy about the efficacy of TDF monotherapy in patients with genotypic resistance to ADV. Thus, in this clinical trial, the investigators will clarify whether tenofovir monotherapy is effective in inducing complete virologic response compared with tenofovir plus entecavir in CHB patients with genotypic resistance to ADV and partial virologic response to ongoing treatment.

Patients with spontaneous decline of HBV DNA were non-randomly assigned to accept peginterferon alfa-2a or entecavir therapy, or didn't accept any antiviral regiment.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of medical ozone in treatment of chronic hepatitis B patients.
