Emtricitabine for Naive Chinese Chronic Hepatitis B Patients

December 29, 2014 updated by: Jun Cheng, Asian-Pacific Alliance of Liver Disease, Beijing
This study evaluates generic emtricitabine(FTC) in Chinese naive chronic hepatitis B patients. Patients were divided into 2 groups: HBeAg positive Chronic hepatitis B(CHB)group and HBeAg negative Chronic hepatitis B(CHB)group.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Generic emtricitabine(FTC) has been approved for treatment of naive chronic hepatitis B(CHB) patients in China. Yet data are limited for this agent. The investigators design this trial to test the effect of FTC in Chinese CHB which including naive HBeAg positive and Negative CHB patients. Response guided therapy strategy is adopted for patients who can not achieve HBV DNA negativity at week 24 FTC treatment, which means FTC and adefovir are combined for these patients.

Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: HBeAg positive CHB group
1000 patients take generic emtricitabine capsule(200 mg one time per day) for 96 weeks,and for patients who have HBV DNA > 500 copies/ml, adefovir dipivoxil were combined
emtricitabine were given to each patients at baseline and respoonse guided therapy was adopted according HBV DNA level at week 24
