Study population: Population that receive TDF-TAF switch therapy

Who may be able to join

  • Must have the ability to understand and sign a written informed consent form, which must be obtained prior to initiation of study procedures.
  • Adult male and non-pregnant, non-lactating female subjects, 18 years of age and older, based on the date of the screening visit. A negative serum pregnancy test at Screening is required for female subjects of childbearing potential (unless surgically sterile or greater than 2 years post-menopausal).
  • Documented evidence of chronic HBV infection (e.g. HBsAg positive for more than 6 months)
  • Previous TDF naïve treatment (more than 96 weeks) baseline status including chronic hepatitis B with the following:
  • HBeAg-positive and HBeAb negative at Screening
  • Screening HBV DNA ≥ 1x 105 copies/mL
Show all 16Show fewer
  • Screening serum ALT level ≥2×ULN(80 IU/L) and ≤ 10 ×ULN (by center laboratory range) OR
  • HBeAg-negative and HBeAb positive at Screening
  • Screening HBV DNA ≥ 1x 104 copies/mL

  • Screening HBV DNA ≥ 1x 104 copies/mL regardless of HBeAg status
  • Treatment naïve subjects defined as no history of antiviral therapy or < 12 weeks of oral antiviral treatment with any nucleoside or nucleotide analogue, including lamivudine or adefovir, clevudine, telbivudine, entecavir
  • The decision is made by the provider and patient to switch from TDF to TAF prior to discussion of the study of enrollment
  • Following the decision to switch therapy, signed written informed consent after being instructed about the objective and procedure of the clinical study
  • Must be willing and able to comply with all study requirements

Who cannot join

  • Subjects who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not to be enrolled in the study.
  • Pregnant women, women who are breastfeeding or who believe they may wish to become pregnant during the course of the study.
  • Co-infection with HCV, HIV
  • Evidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (e.g. α-fetoprotein> 50 ng/mL or as evidenced by recent ultrasound or other standard of care measure)
  • Malignancy within 5 years prior to screening, with the exception of specific cancers that are cured by surgical resection (basal cell skin cancer, etc). Subjects under evaluation for possible malignancy are not eligible
  • Current alcohol or substance abuse judged by the investigator to potentially interfere with subject compliance
  • Currently receiving therapy with cytotoxic agent, nephrotoxic agents, or agents capable of modifying renal excretion
  • Any other clinical condition or prior therapy that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for the study or unable to comply with dosing requirements.

About this study

Official title: Treatment Efficacy and Safety of Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) Switch Therapy in Patients Who Have Been Treated With Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) in naïve Chronic Hepatitis B: a Real Life Multicenter Cohort Study in Korea

Recent TAF has introduced to have more safe profiles than TDF in clinical trials. Especially, TDF has the renal safety issue in high risk group including HIV, decompensated cirrhosis (ascites), uncontrolled DM etc.

However, there is no available cohort data for treatment efficacy and safety in TDF-TAF switch therapy in treatment-naïve chronic hepatitis B.

The aim of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of TAF switch therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B who have been treated with TDF.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • tenofovir alafenamideDrug

    To evaluate of efficacy and safety in patients with TDF-TAF switch therapy

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete Virological response

    Portion of subjects with plasma HBV DNA levels below 116 copies/mL

    Measured: at Week 96.

  2. Incidence of of elevation of serum creatinine as a measure of renal safety

    Incidence of elevation of serum creatinine (>0.5mg/dL) from baseline creatinine

    Measured: at Week 96

  3. Incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis as a measure of bone safety

    Incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis according to Bone Mineral Density

    Measured: at Week 96

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Biochemical response

    ALT normalization (Male <30 IU/L, Female <19 IU/L)

    Measured: at Week 48 and 96

  2. Serologic response

    loss rate of HBeAg in HBeAg positive patients

    Measured: at Week 48 and 96

  3. Serologic response

    seroconversion rate in HBeAg positive patients

    Measured: at Week 48 and 96

  4. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events

    all adverse events during tenofovir treatment

    Measured: at Week 48 and 96

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2019. 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Myeong Jun Song, Ph D (0422209291, mjsong95@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete Virological response (time frame: at Week 96.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 30 Jan 2019.
