Safety and Efficacy Study of LB80380 in the Treatment-naive Patients of Chronic Hepatitis B

October 4, 2012 updated by: LG Life Sciences

A Phase IIb, Open, Multinational, Multi-center, Randomised, Comparative, Parallel Study to Assess the Safety and Antiviral Activity of LB80380 Compared to Entecavir 0.5 mg in Chronic Hepatitis B Patients for 48 Weeks With a Planned Analysis of Efficacy and Safety at Week 24 of the Treatment for Selecting Optimal Dose

The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and the antiviral activity of two doses of LB80380 for 48 weeks in treatment-naive patients with chronic hepatitis B infection compared to entecavir 0.5 mg.

Study Overview
