What is being measured

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

  1. Results of viral Hepatitis B DNA to be <20 IU/mL

    The proportion of subjects with plasma HBV DNA levels below 20 IU/mL at week 48.

    Measured: 48 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Complete viral suppression at study completion

    The proportion of subjects with complete viral suppression, i.e., plasma HBV DNA level below 20 IU/mL at Week 96.

    Measured: 96 Weeks

  2. Positive eGFR changes at study completion compared to Baseline visit

    Change in eGFR from baseline to Week 96

    Measured: 96 weeks

  3. Improved Bone Mass Density at study completion

    % change from baseline in BMD at the hip and lumbar spine at Week 96.

    Measured: 96 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tenofovir Alafenamide in people with Hepatitis B, run by Thomas Jefferson University at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Results of viral Hepatitis B DNA to be <20 IU/mL (time frame: 48 weeks). 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 25 Jun 2020.
