About this study

Official title: A Multinational, Multi-center, Open, Comparative, Paralleled, Roll-over Study to Assess the Safety and Antiviral Activity of LB80380 Tablet Compared to Entecavir 0.5 mg After Additional 48 Weeks of Treatment in Chronic Hepatitis B Patients Who Have Completed LG-BVCL007 Study

The purpose of the study is to investigate the long-term safety and the antiviral activity of the optimal doses of LB80380 for additional 48 weeks in treatment-naive patients with chronic hepatitis B infection compared to entecavir 0.5 mg.

Read the detailed description

LB80380, an oral prodrug, is a promising candidate nucleotide analogue with antiviral activity against wild-type hepatitis B virus (HBV). LB80380 is undergoing clinical development by LG Life Sciences for use in the treatment of chronic HBV infection.

This study is an extension study of the Phase IIb (Protocol No. LG-BVCL007), the treatment period of this study is 48-week with 24-week of follow-up period

    Safety assessment including adverse events, laboratory abnormalities and DNA mutation

    Measured: at Week 48

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change of HBV DNA from Baseline of LG-BVCL007 study

    Efficacy assessment including normalization of ALT, HBsAg seroconversion, HBeAg seroconversion

    Measured: at Week 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LB80380 and Entecavir 0.5 mg in people with Chronic Hepatitis B, run by LG Life Sciences at 2 sites in 2 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 1 inclusion and 11 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 16 Apr 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China, 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 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?

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?

Percentage of patients showing HBV DNA mutation (time frame: at Week 48). 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 NCT01242787, which also lists 4 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Apr 2012.
