What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) DNA at Week 52

    Change from baseline was the difference of the HBV DNA copy numbers (log10) in serum collected by blood draw between baseline and Week 52

    Measured: Baseline and Week 52

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Percentage of Participants With HBV DNA Loss (<400 Copies/mL) at Week 52

    The percentages of participants with an HBV DNA level in serum of less than 400 copies/mL, which is the lower limit of detection (HBV DNA loss) at Week 52

    Measured: Week 52

  2. Time to Onset of HBV DNA Loss (< 400 Copies/mL)

    Time to onset of an HBV DNA level in serum of less than 400 copies/mL was summarized using the Kaplan-Meier method. Regarding the Measured Values, the median time to onset and its upper limit for the ADV group and the upper limit of the median time to onset for the LAM group are non-estimable because they are not observed until the end of the study. The lower limit of the median time to onset for the ADV and LAM groups are 36.0 and 20.0, respectively. The median time to onset for the LAM group is 28.0

    Measured: From Baseline to Week 52

  3. Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis B e Antigen (HBeAg) Loss at Week 52

    Participants with loss of Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) in serum collected by blood draw: Cheminoluminescent Immuno Assay (CLIA) method

    Measured: Week 52

  4. Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis B e Antigen/Antibody (HBeAg/Ab) Seroconversion at Week 52

    Participants with loss of Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and positive for anti-Hepatitis B e antibody (HBeAb) in serum collected by blood draw: CLIA method

    Measured: Week 52

  5. Time to Onset of HBeAg Loss

    Time to onset with loss of HBeAg in serum collected by blood draw was summarized using the Kaplan-Meier method.: CLIA method. Regarding the Measured Values, the median time to onset and its lower limit and its upper limit for all groups are non-estimable because they are not observed until the end of the study.

    Measured: From Baseline to Week 52

  6. Time to Onset of HBeAg/Ab Seroconversion

    Time to onset of HBeAg/Ab seroconversion in serum collected by blood draw was summarized using the Kaplan-Meier method.: CLIA method. Regarding the Measured Values, the median time to onset and its lower limit and its upper limit for all groups are non-estimable because they are not observed until the end of the study.

    Measured: From Baseline to Week 52

  7. Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis B s Antigen (HBsAg) Loss at Week 52

    Participants with loss of Hepatitis B s antigen (HBsAg) in serum collected by blood draw: CLIA method

    Measured: Week 52

  8. Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis B s Antigen/ Antibody (HBsAg/Ab) Seroconversion at Week 52

    Participants with loss of Hepatitis B s antigen (HBsAg) and positive for anti-Hepatitis B s antibody (HBsAb) in serum collected by blood draw: CLIA method

    Measured: Week 52

  9. Mean Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) Level at Week 52

    Summary statistics were displayed for serum ALT.

    Measured: Week 52

  10. Percentage of Participants With Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) Normalization at Week 52

    ALT normalization was defined as an ALT value that was in the normal range (<= 45IU/L; upper limit of normal [ULN]) at Week 52 of the participants whose ALT values were abnormal (>45IU/L) at baseline

    Measured: Week 52

  11. Time to Onset of ALT Normalization

    Time to onset of ALT normalization was summarized using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: From Baseline to Week 52

  12. Rate of Emergence of Resistant Virus at Week 52

    Participants with resistant mutation at Week 52. LAM resistant mutation (enzyme-linked mini-sequencing assay): rtM204I/V; ADV resistant mutation (direct sequencing assay): rtN236T or rtA181T/V in HBV DNA ; rt: reverse transcriptase gene

    Measured: Week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing LAM group and ADV group in people with Chronic Hepatitis B, run by GlaxoSmithKline.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Aug 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean Change From Baseline in Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) DNA at Week 52 (time frame: Baseline and Week 52). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Oct 2009.
