May 18, 2020 updated by: Zhongguo Zhou, Sun Yat-sen University

A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of Tenofovir and Entecavir in the Treatment of Long-term Prognosis in Patients With Hepatitis B-related Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Curative Resection

This study evaluates the addition of Tenofovir and Entecavir in the treatment of Hepatitis B-related hepatocellular carcinoma after curative resection in adults. Half of participants will receive Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, while the other half will receive Entecavir.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Antiviral potency significantly differs among various antiviral agents，Entecavir and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate are equally recommendedas first-line treatments for patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). However, it is unclear whether treatment with these drugs is associated with equivalent clinical outcomes,especially impacts the risk of HCC recurrence. Entecavir and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate have comparable efficacy in achieving surrogate end points, including virologic response,but they do by different mechanisms .

Entecavir, a guanosine nucleoside analogue with activity against HBV reverse transcriptase (rt),is efficiently phosphorylated to the active triphosphate form, which has an intracellular half-life of 15 hours. By competing with the natural substrate deoxyguanosine triphosphate, entecavir triphosphate functionally inhibits all three activities of the HBV reverse transcriptase: (1) basepriming, (2) reverse transcription of the negative strand from the pregenomic messenger RNA,and (3) synthesis of the positive strand of HBV DNA.

Tenofovir fumarate is a cyclic nucleoside phosphine diester structural analog of adenosine monophosphate. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate first needs to be converted to tenofovir by hydrolysis of the diester, followed by phosphorylation of cellular enzymes to form tenofovir diphosphate. Tenofovir diphosphate competes with the natural substrate 5'-deoxyadenosine triphosphate for its involvement in the synthesis of viral DNA, which, after entering the viral DNA strand, can cause DNA elongation to be blocked due to its lack of 3'-OH groups,thereby blocking the replication of the virus. Tenofovir diphosphate is a weak inhibitor of mammalian DNA polymerase alpha, beta and mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
