Study Comparing Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF), Emtricitabine/TDF, & Entecavir in the Treatment of Chronic HBV in Subjects w/Decompensated Liver Disease.
Information source: Gilead Sciences
Information obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov on June 20, 2008 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Chronic Hepatitis B
Intervention: tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Drug); emtricitabine / tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Drug); entecavir (Drug)
Phase: Phase 2
Status: Active, not recruiting
Sponsored by: Gilead Sciences Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Elsa Mondou, M.D., Study Chair, Affiliation: Gilead Sciences
Summary
The study is designed to evaluate and compare the safety and tolerability of tenofovir
disoproxil fumarate (DF), emtricitabine/tenofovir DF, and entecavir in the treatment of
hepatitis B patients with decompensated liver disease.
Clinical Details
Official title: Phase 2, Double-Blind, Multi-Center, Randomized Study Comparing Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate, Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate, and Entecavir in the Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis B Subjects With Decompensated Liver Disease and in the Prevention of Hepatitis B Recurrence Post-Transplantation.
Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Primary outcome: Safety (adverse events and laboratory tests, discontinuations due to adverse events)
Detailed description:
Safety will be assessed by evaluating adverse events, laboratory abnormalities and the
development of drug-resistant mutations. Efficacy will be evaluated for reductions in
Child-Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) and Model for End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores, reductions in
HBV DNA, changes in liver enzymes, and the generation of antibody to virus.
Eligibility
Minimum age: 18 Years.
Maximum age: 69 Years.
Gender(s): Both.

Inclusion Criteria:
A patient must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for
participation in the study.
