About this study

Official title: Prospective Study In Noninvasive Evaluation of Hepatic Fibrosis in Chronic

The aim of our study is to evaluate liver fibrosis using biochemical markers, FibroScan, and radiology methods in patients with chronic hepatitis B in mainland China.

Read the detailed description

Up to Nov, 2015, total of 818 patients with chronic HBV infection had been enrolled in the study. Paired blood and liver biopsy specimen had been collected. The serum samples stored at -80 degree Celsius. All the liver biopsy samples were judged by three pathology experts, according to Ishak standard.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Hepatitis B, run by Peking University First Hospital at 1 site 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 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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.

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?

Evaluation of staging fibrosis with a combination of non-invasive parameters compared to liver biopsy (time frame: within two weeks after liver biopsy). 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?
