About this study

Official title: Entecavir Versus Lamivudine for Preventing the Risk of Hepatitis B Virus Reactivation in Patients With Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma on CHOP/R-CHOP: a Randomized Phase II Study

The aim of this study is to prove the superiority of entecavir over lamivudine for preventing the risk of hepatitis B virus reactivation in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma on CHOP/R-CHOP.

Read the detailed description

In china, previous studies showed patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) are likely to have hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. The risk of HBV reactivation is high when patients were treated with CHOP, especially in combination with rituximab. The aim of this study is to compare entecavir with lamivudine, 2 commonly used anti-virus agents, for preventing the risk of HBV reactivation in patients with NHL on CHOP/R-CHOP.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence rate of HBV reactivation

    Defined by increased level of HBV DNA

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Incidence rate of hepatitis and HBV reactivation-related hepatitis

    Defined by increased level of alanine transaminase

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Incidence rate and median time of treatment delay due to hepatitis

    Measured by information of treatment delay

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Incidence rate and median time of HBV DNA level normalization

    Measured by information of HBV DNA level normalization

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Entecavir and Lamivudine in people with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and Hepatitis B Reactivation, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2013. 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 China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ye Guo, MD (+86 21 64175590 ext. 8906, pattrick_guo@msn.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence rate of HBV reactivation (time frame: 12 months). 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 2 Aug 2013.
