About this study

Official title: A 3-year, Open-label, Multi-center Extension Trial of Telbivudine Therapy for Patients Previously Treated in EFFORT Clinical Trial

  • The purpose of this study is to to prove that the long-term efficacy of strategy of treatment adjustment at W24 according to virological response based on ROADMAP concept is better than standard of care strategy.
  • To evaluate the off-treatment durability of HBeAg seroconversion in patients who discontinued treatment due to sustained HBeAg seroconversion and HBV DNA<300copies/ml with over 12 months consolidation treatment
Being tested
telbivudine (ROADMAP), Telbivudine (Standard of Care)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • telbivudine (ROADMAP)Drug

    Patients will receive oral telbivudine 600mg, daily for 104 weeks, if HBV DNA breakthrough, add on oral adefovir 10mg daily

    Stopping rules:

    The participants who achieve HBeAg seroconversion and HBV DNA<300copies/ml with over 12 months consolidation treatment in EFFORT study will discontinue treatment.

    The participants who don't meet the rules above will continue their previous treatment and follow up at the interval of 12 weeks until they finish the 156 weeks therapy or achieve the stopping rules.

    Follow up: The participants who stopped treatment will follow up at the interval of 12 weeks for 52 weeks. Of these patients, if they have confirmed virologic relapse during follow-up period, they will be excluded from the trial.

  • Telbivudine (Standard of Care)Drug

    Patients will receive oral telbivudine 600mg, daily for 104 weeks, if HBV DNA breakthrough, add on oral adefovir 10mg daily

    Stopping rules:

    The participants who achieve HBeAg seroconversion and HBV DNA<300copies/ml with over 12 months consolidation treatment in EFFORT study will discontinue treatment.

    The participants who don't meet the rules above will continue their previous treatment and follow up at the interval of 12 weeks until they finish the 156 weeks therapy or achieve the stopping rules.

    Follow up: The participants who stopped treatment will follow up at the interval of 12 weeks for 52 weeks. Of these patients, if they have confirmed virologic relapse during follow-up period, they will be excluded from the trial.

What is being measured

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

  1. The difference of percentage of patients achieving HBV DNA< 300copies/mL at week 48 in Group I and Group II

    Measured: Week 48

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Percentage of patients achieving HBV DNA <300copies/mL at week 156

    Measured: Week 156

  2. The log10 reduction in HBV DNA from baseline of EFFORT study at week 156

    Measured: Week 156

  3. Percentage of patients with HBeAg loss or HBeAg seroconversion at week 156

    Measured: Week 156

  4. Percentage of patients with HBsAg loss or HBsAg seroconversion at week 156

    Measured: Week 156

  5. The percentage of patients with ALT normalization at week 156

    Measured: Week 156

  6. Percentage of patients with HBV DNA breakthrough at week 156

    Measured: Week 156

  7. Percentage of patients with genotypic resistance among the patients with HBV DNA breakthrough at week 156

    Measured: Week 156

  8. sustained response rate of durability of HBeAg seroconversion at week 52 of off-treatment duration

    Measured: week 52 of off-treatment

  9. percentage of hepatitis flare at week 52 of off-treatment duration

    Measured: week 52 of off-treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing telbivudine (ROADMAP) in people with Hepatitis B, Chronic, run by Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University at 24 sites 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 3 inclusion and 1 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 19 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 sites 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

The difference of percentage of patients achieving HBV DNA< 300copies/mL at week 48 in Group I and Group II (time frame: Week 48). 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 Jun 2014.
