About this study

Official title: An Exploratory Evaluation of Interleukin 28B (IL28B) Genotype, Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) of rs12356193, Protein and RNA Biomarkers in Serum Samples (Stored, Already Obtained From Completed Studies) From Subjects With HBe-antigen Positive or Negative Chronic Hepatitis B, Who Have Completed Therapy for Hepatitis B With Pegasys ± Lamivudine.

This retrospective study will evaluate the association of biomarkers and the treatment response of patients with chronic hepatitis B, who have completed therapy with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) ± lamivudine. For the analysis stored serum samples obtained from patients will be used; no actual patients are involved.

What is being measured

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

  1. Interleukin-28B (IL-28B) genotype in stored serum samples of patients with chronic hepatitis B, who have completed therapy with Pegasys +/- lamivudine

    Measured: Samples up to 72 weeks of treatment

  2. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of rs12356193 in stored serum samples of patients with chronic hepatitis B, who have completed therapy with Pegasys +/- lamivudine

    Measured: Samples up to 72 weeks of treatment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. IL-28B concentration at baseline and during treatment with Pegasys +/- lamivudine from stored serum samples of patients with chronic hepatitis B

    Measured: Samples up to 72 weeks of treatment

  2. Protein/RNA biomarker evaluation from stored serum samples of patients with chronic hepatitis B, who have completed therapy with Pegasys +/- lamivudine

    Measured: Samples up to 72 weeks of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatitis B, Chronic, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 27 sites in 10 countries.

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 1 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 2 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites in Thailand, Italy, Russia, South Korea, Taiwan and 5 more countries. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Interleukin-28B (IL-28B) genotype in stored serum samples of patients with chronic hepatitis B, who have completed therapy with Pegasys +/- lamivudine (time frame: Samples up to 72 weeks of treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01705704, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2 Nov 2016.
