About this study

Official title: A Multi-centre, One-arm Prospective Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Switching From Entecavir (ETV) to Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) in Japanese Chronic Hepatitis B HBeAg-positive and HBV-DNA Undetectable Subjects

Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate is a nucleos(t)ide analogue that inhibits Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) growth, and is marketed in Japan with an indication for inhibition of HBV growth in subjects with chronic hepatitis B associated with HBV growth and abnormal liver function. This study has been planned to evaluate the virological effects and safety of switching from ETV to TDF in chronic hepatitis B (hepatitis B e-antigen [HBeAg])-positive and HBV- deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) undetectable subjects. This study is designed as a multi-center, one-arm, post-marketing clinical study to investigate the HBsAg reduction in subjects who have not achieved the long-term goal, the loss of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). The study will be conducted in HBeAg-positive and HBV-DNA undetectable subjects treated with ETV. After switching ETV to TDF, TDF will be administered for 96 weeks. Approximately 80 subjects will be screened to achieve 65 evaluable subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved 0.25 Logarithm to the Base 10 (Log10) Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) Reduction From the Baseline at Week 48

    Blood samples were collected to evaluate the HBsAg reduction from Baseline at Week 48. HBsAg reduction potential was obtained by evaluating log10 observation values minus log10 Baseline values. The HBsAg responder values were<=-0.25 log10 and non-responder values were >-0.25 log10 . Baseline is defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits. Full analysis set (FAS) Population is defined as population of all participants enrolled in the study, excluding those who meet either of the following criteria: who have not received any dose of study treatment and who have no efficacy data (HBsAg, HBV-DNA, hepatitis B core-related antigen [HBcrAg], HBeAg, hepatitis B surface antibody [HBsAb],Hepatitis B envelope antibody [HBeAb], alanine aminotransferase [ALT]) from at least 15 days after the start of study treatment.
