研究概览

简要总结

This study will examine whether 12 month treatment with entecavir(Baraclude®) has an effect on changes of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and of hyaluronan measurement in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection.

详细描述

Patients with chronic hepatitis B infection and relevant liver fibrosis will be treated with entecavir during 5 years or until anti-HBs seroconversion or 6-12 months after anti-HBe seroconversion and HBeAg loss. There are 9 visits during treatment for each patient. At all visits, each patient will consent to give 20 ml blood sample for study examination and 40 ml blood sample for research purposes.

  • Participation of patients in another clinical study within last 4 weeks prior to the inclusion or simultaneous participation in another clinical study
  • anamnestic known substance dependance or another diseases, which not allowed persons to understand essence and importance and possible consequences of the trial
  • lack of cooperation and informed consent
  • co-infection with hepatitis C, hepatitis D or HIV
  • detection of hepatocellular carcinoma
  • serious, chronic disease with an estimated prognosis for survival shorter than the study period of 5 years
  • every previous therapy with lamivudine or telbivudine or previous therapy with other antiviral substance within last 6 months before study inclusion

结局指标

主要结局

Changes of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and hyaluronan measurement in blood

时间窗: 12 Month

Changes of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and hyaluronan measurement in blood will be checked as markers of fibrous tissue in the liver after treatment with entecavir(Baraclude®) within 12 month.

次要结局

  • Changes on Pro-Collagen-III-N-Peptid, Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases (TIMP-1) and Chitinase-3-like protein 1(YKL-40) in serum(12 Month)
  • Sensitivity and specificity of non-invasive marker at the baseline in comparison to liver biopsy as a gold standard(12 Month)
  • Changes on FibroScan-measurement (LSM) and serum parameter(6,12,18,24,36,48 and 60 month)
  • Quota of patients with normalization of Alanine transaminase(ALT)-measurement in blood at separate timepoints(6,12, 18, 24, 32, 48 and 60 month)
  • Decrease of hepatitis B virus-DNA and quota of patients with non-detectable hepatitis B virus-DNA at separate timepoints.(6, 12, 18, 24, 32, 48 and 60 month)
  • Incidence of side effects(60 month)
  • Quota of patients with hepatitis B viral protein loss, antibodies to the the hepatitis B 'e' antigen seroconversion, surface antigen of the Hepatitis-B-Virus loss and antibodies to the hepatitis B core antigen seroconversion at separate timepoints(6,12, 18, 24, 32, 48 and 60 month)
