What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of subjects who have newly reported hepatitis B-related complications during AI463049 (reported by Phase III treatment groups)

    defined as follows:

    • Hepatic cirrhosis (Diagnosis requires biopsy or imaging study)
    • Esophageal Varices (Grade 1 or higher on endoscopy or barium swallow)
    • Bleeding esophageal varices
    • Ascites (Present on physical exam or imaging study)
    • Hepatic encephalopathy (≥ Stage 2)
    • Hepatocellular carcinoma
    • Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis
    • Gastric varices
    • Bleeding gastric varices
    • Hepatorenal syndrome

    Measured: data is collected every 6 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. To determine the proportion of subjects who have a HBV Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of < 300 copies/mL over the AI463049 follow-up period by the phase III treatment group

    Measured: Every 6 months

  2. To determine the proportion of subjects who have Alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 1.0 x Upper limit of normal (ULN) over the AI463049 follow-up period by the phase III treatment group

    Measured: Every 6 months

  3. To determine the proportion of subjects who were Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) positive at the beginning of Phase III trials who have HBeAg loss or HBe seroconversion over the AI463049 follow-up period by the phase III treatment group

    Measured: Every 6 months

  4. To determine the number of anti-HBV medications following enrollment in AI463049 by the phase III treatment group

    Measured: Every 6 months

  5. To determine all cause mortality by the phase III treatment group

    Measured: Every 6 months

  6. To determine HBV-related mortality by the phase III treatment group

    Measured: Every 6 months

  7. To determine Non-hepatic malignancies by the phase III treatment group

    Measured: Every 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatitis B, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb.

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 0 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 19 Apr 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The proportion of subjects who have newly reported hepatitis B-related complications during AI463049 (reported by Phase III treatment groups) (time frame: data is collected every 6 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 19 Apr 2011.
