About this study

Official title: A Phase IV, Blood Sample Collection Study For Exploratory Evaluation of the Association of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms With Treatment Responses From Subjects With HBe-Antigen Positive or Negative Chronic Hepatitis B, Who Received Therapy for Hepatitis B With Peginterferon Alfa-2a 40kD (Peg-IFN) ± Nucleos(t)Ide Analogue

This Phase 4 study is designed for the collection of blood biomarker samples from participants who have completed CHB treatment with at least 24 weeks of a pegylated interferon alfa-2a (Peg-IFN alfa-2a) containing regimen and at least 24 weeks post-treatment follow-up. Participants may be enrolled from historical studies supported or sponsored by Roche, ongoing studies supported or sponsored by Roche, or from general medical practice. The follow-up of individuals who choose to participate in this study will be in accordance with the ongoing studies or with the general medical practice of the physician. Data from whole blood deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples collected in the GV28555 study or available from previously collected Roche Clinical Repository (RCR) samples will be used for combined analysis with data from other applicable studies. Procedures will include blood sample collection (not applicable for participants who previously have consented and donated RCR DNA samples) and medical record capture.

What is being measured

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

  1. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) Associated With HBeAg Seroconversion or Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) Clearance ≥24 Weeks Post-Treatment in HBeAg-Positive East Asian (CN) Population: Additive Model

    Genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach was used to evaluate the association of SNPs with treatment response. HBeAg seroconversion was defined as the loss of HBeAg and detection of the antibody to HBeAg (anti-HBe). HBsAg clearance was defined as the loss of HBsAg, with or without detection of the antibody to HBsAg (anti-HBs). Associations with treatment response were analyzed using logistic regression and adjusted for covariates. Markers were coded according to additive models of inheritance. Markers surpassing p-value thresholds of p<10^-5 and p<5x10^-8 were considered suggestive and genome-wide significant, respectively. Larger beta coefficients correspond to greater likelihood of treatment response.

    Measured: Single blood sample ≥24 weeks post-treatment

  20. SNPs Associated With HBeAg Seroconversion, HBsAg Clearance, or Undetectable HBV DNA ≥24 Weeks Post-Treatment: Dominant Model

    GWAS approach was used to evaluate the association of SNPs with treatment response. HBeAg seroconversion was defined as the loss of HBeAg and detection of anti-HBe. HBsAg clearance was defined as the loss of HBsAg, with or without detection of anti-HBs. Undetectable HBV DNA was defined as an HBV DNA level below the LLD of 2000 IU/mL. Associations with treatment response were analyzed using logistic regression and adjusted for covariates. Markers were coded according to dominant models of inheritance. Markers surpassing p-value thresholds of p<10^-5 and p<5x10^-8 were considered suggestive and genome-wide significant, respectively. Larger beta coefficients correspond to greater likelihood of treatment response.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatitis B, Chronic, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 84 sites in 15 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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 84 sites in China, Italy, Taiwan, Poland, Germany and 10 more countries. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Apr 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) Associated With HBeAg Seroconversion or Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) Clearance ≥24 Weeks Post-Treatment in HBeAg-Positive East Asian (CN) Population: Additive Model (time frame: Single blood sample ≥24 weeks post-treatment). The study lists 32 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01855997, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Apr 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
