About this study

Official title: A Phase IIa Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ZM-H1505R in Combination With Entecavir (ETV) Compared With ETV Monotherapy in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B Who Have Received ETV Monotherapy for at Least 12 Months

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase IIa study, designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ZM-H1505R in combination with Baraclude versus Baraclude monotherapy in adult CHB subjects with HBV DNA <2000 IU/mL but ≥ 50 IU/mL and who have received ETV (0.5 mg, once daily [QD)] monotherapy for at least 12 months.

The study is planned to enroll 90 adult CHB subjects who have received ETV monotherapy for at least 12 months and are still receiving ETV monotherapy (0.5 mg, QD) continuously. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio into 3 treatment groups. Both HBeAg positive and negative subjects will be included. There will be 20 HBeAg positive subjects and 10 HBeAg negative subjects in each treatment group.

After 48 weeks of treatment with the corresponding regimen, subjects will continue to take Baraclude 0.5 mg QD, as a monotherapy for a 12-week follow-up period for observation of efficacy and safety of ZM-H1505R.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ZM-H1505R and Baraclude in people with Hepatitis B, Chronic, run by Shanghai Zhimeng Biopharma, Inc. 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 5 inclusion and 29 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 8 May 2023. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

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 Project Manager (15800984667, adeng@corebiopharma.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of subjects who achieves complete virologic response (CVR) at week 24 of treatment period. (time frame: 24 weeks). The study lists 2 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 8 May 2023.
