Trial of Telbivudine Combination Therapy vs. Continued Adefovir Monotherapy

March 5, 2015 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A Prospective, Randomized, Trial to Investigate the Effect of Continued Adefovir Versus Combination Regimens of Telbivudine Plus Adefovir, and Telbivudine Plus Tenofovir in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B and Suboptimal Viral Suppression (PROACTIV Study)

The purpose of this study is to find out if taking a combination of telbivudine and adefovir or tenofovir and telbivudine can lower the amount of Hepatitis B virus in patients that have been taking adefovir alone for at least 5 months and have had less than optimal responses. The safety of taking telbivudine and adefovir together or tenofovir and telbivudine together will also be studied.
