Lamivudine Plus Adefovir Versus Telbivudine Plus Adefovir in Lamivudine Resistant Chronic Hepatitis B

January 31, 2012 updated by: Yonsei University

Antiviral Efficacy of Continuing Lamivudine Plus Adefovir or Switching to Telbivudine Plus Adefovir in HBeAg-positive Lamivudine-refractory Chronic Hepatitis B Patients Who Have Suboptimal Response to Lamivudine Plus Adefovir for at Least 12 Months

No study has reported on the comparative effect of continuing lamivudine plus adefovir versus switching to telbivudine plus adefovir in HBeAg-positive lamivudine-refractory chronic hepatitis B patients who have suboptimal response to lamivudine plus adefovir. The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy of continuing lamivudine plus adefovir versus switching to telbivudine plus adefovir directly in patients with lamivudine-refractory chronic hepatitis B patients who have suboptimal response to lamivudine plus adefovir for at least 12 months.
