What is being measured

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

  1. Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) DNA (log10 Copies/mL) Change From Baseline at Week 156 of Adefovir Therapy

    HBV DNA was tested with Roche Cobas Amplicor HBV monitor test, Lower Limit of Detection 300 copies/mL) after 3 years (156 weeks: Weeks 1-52 in Study ADF103814; Weeks 53-156 in Study 108005) of adefovir therapy). Change from baseline was calculated as the Week 156 value minus the Baseline value. Baseline is defined as the first day of study ADF103814, of which Study 108005 is an extension.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 156

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Participants Achieving ALT Normalization at Week 104 & 156

    Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization is defined as a value <= upper limit of normal (ULN) range based on the set of subjects with ALT>ULN at baseline. The normal range for ALT is 0-40 Units/Liter.

    Measured: Week 104, Week 156

  2. Number of Participants Achieving Virological Response at Week 104 & 156

    Virological response is defined as HBV DNA level<300 copies/ml

    Measured: Week 104, Week 156

  3. HBV DNA Levels at Each Collection Time Point From Baseline Through Week 156

    Serum HBV DNA. Baseline is defined as the first day of study ADF103814, of which Study 108005 is an extension.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 68, 80, 92, 104, 120, 132, 144, 156

  4. Number of Participants With HBeAg Loss, HBeAg Seroconversion, HBsAg Loss and HBsAg Seroconversion at Week 104 & 156

    Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) loss, HBeAg seroconversion (defined as HBeAg negative and hepatitis B e antibody [HBeAb] positive), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss and HBsAg seroconversion (defined as HBsAg negative and hepatitis B surface antibody [HBsAb] positive). HBeAg and HBsAg seroconversion are defined as the loss (becoming negative) of HBeAg and the concurrent appearance of antibodies against HBeAg and the loss of HBsAg and the concurrent appearance of antibodies against HBsAg, respectively.

    Measured: Week 104 and 156

  5. Safety Assessment: Number of Participants With a Serious Adverse Event and an Adverse Event

    The number of participants with a serious adverse event and an adverse event is reported. Refer to the adverse event section for details.

    Measured: Treatment Phase (Weeks 53-156)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing adefovir dipivoxil 10mg in people with Hepatitis B, Chronic and Chronic Hepatitis B, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 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 15 Dec 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 24 Nov 2010). 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?

Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) DNA (log10 Copies/mL) Change From Baseline at Week 156 of Adefovir Therapy (time frame: Baseline, Week 156). 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 15 Dec 2010.
