Trial summary

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major global health issue with 257 million chronically infected individuals. Of note, China has the largest population accounting for one third of the world's infected population. Approximately, about 300 000 people die each year due to the consequences of HBV.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 79 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The chronic HBV-infected patients with differential antiviral strategies were recruited and separated to peg-IFN-alpha alone, NAs alone or combination treatment groups according to their antiviral therapies. The clinical outcomes of patients with differential treatments were compared during the follow-up management.

Who may be able to join

  • patients with evidence of chronic HBV infection

Who cannot join

  • chronic liver injury mainly caused by other reasons, such as autoimmune diseases, alcohol, drugs and so on.

About this study

Official title: Study on the Antiviral Therapy and Prognosis of Patients With Chronic HBV Infection

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major global health issue with 257 million chronically infected individuals. Of note, China has the largest population accounting for one third of the world's infected population. Approximately, about 300 000 people die each year due to the consequences of HBV. In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) proposed the goal for elimination of hepatitis B as public health threat by 2030 and China will be a major contributor towards this global goal. Currently, two approved therapeutic strategies are available including pegylated interferon (IFN) or nucleos (t) ide analogues (NA), which could suppress HBV replication and slow disease progression. Here, investigators hope to launch a cohort study to reveal the clinical features relating to therapeutic efficacy of antiviral therapy and the prognosis of patients with differential therapeutic strategies.

Read the detailed description

Patients with chronic HBV infection were recruited in the current study and divided in to peg-IFN-alpha alone group, NAs alone group and the combination therapy group. The serum HBV DNA level, HBV serological test and biochemical examination including serum transaminase level and AFP were recorded every three or six months. The serum, feces, urine and liver (if necessary) samples were collected during follow-up. And the clinical outcomes of patients were evaluated. The clinical and biological features of patients with different clinical outcomes will be compared to explore the factors affecting the antiviral therapeutic efficacy.

What is being measured

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

  1. virological response

    serum HBV DNA level below the detection limit

    Measured: 3 years

  2. HBeAg seroconversion

    Loss of HBeAg and presence of anti-hepatitis B e antibody (anti-HBe) in a person who was previously HBeAg-positive and anti-HBe-negative

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Clinical cure

    Sustained virological response and HBsAg clearance or with anti-HBs seroconversion, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) within the normal range, and mild or no lesions in the liver

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. HBV DNA

    The serum HBV DNA level will be detected and reported every 3 to 6 months

    Measured: 3 years

  2. HBV serological test

    HBV serological markers include HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe, hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) were detected and reported every 3 months

    Measured: 3 years

  3. liver function

    The serum levels of transaminase including ALT and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) will be collected and reported every 3 months

    Measured: 3 years

  4. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)

    The serum AFP level will be detected and reported every 3 to 6 months

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatitis B Virus Infection, run by Xiangya Hospital of Central South University 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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 May 2022. 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 China. 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 Yan Huang (+86 13874854142, ganrankedrhyan@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

virological response (time frame: 3 years). 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 26 May 2022.
