About this study

The study aimed to evaluate the relationship between hepatitis B virus genotype and treatment response in children with chronic hepatitis B with specific treatment indications. This is a prospective cohort study, with a follow-up period of at least 12 months, conducted at Children's Hospital 1 and City Children's Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The patient's blood was taken to be tested for hepatitis B virus genotyping using Sanger sequencing at the Center for Molecular Biomedicine Ho Chi Minh City. The research hypothesis is that genotype is related to treatment response.

What is being measured

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

  1. Serological response for HBeAg

    Serological response for HBeAg applies only to patients with HBeAg-positive Chronic Hepatitis B and is defined as HBeAg loss and seroconversion to anti-HBe.

    Measured: 12 months after treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Virological response

    Virological response is defined as undetectable HBV DNA by a sensitive PCR assay.

    Measured: 12 months after treatment

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

Contact Minh Hoa Anh Ly ((+84) 902352622, lhaminh.ncs.nhi23@ump.edu.vn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serological response for HBeAg (time frame: 12 months after treatment). 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 NCT06289725, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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?
