- Target Recruitment
- Not specified
- Patients who received placebo in L-FMAU-201 study
- Female of childbearing potential with a negative serum (beta-HCG) pregnancy test within 14 days of starting therapy.
- Patients who were able to give written informed consent prior to study start and to comply with the study requirements.
- Patients who met the following criteria after completion of the Week 48 visit were to have additional follow-up visits at Weeks 54 and 60:
1)had received no additional therapy since completion of 24-week treatment of clevudine and 2)experienced a >= 1 log10 decrease from baseline in HBV DNA at Week 48
- Patient with HBeAg seroconverted to anti-HBe at the last 2 consecutive visits (one month apart) in L-FMAU-201 study.
- Patient who was currently receiving antiviral, immunomodulatory or corticosteroid therapy.
- Patient who was treated with lamivudine, lobucavir, famciclovir, adefovir or any other investigational nucleoside for HBV infection after cessation of treatment in L-FMAU-201 study.
- Patient who had a history of ascites, variceal hemorrhage or hepatic encephalopathy.
- Patient who was co-infected with HCV, HDV or HIV.
- Patient with clinical evidence of cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma (®-Fetoprotein)Evaluation was based on alpha-fetoprotein primarily. If alpha-fetoprotein level was suggestive of cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma, confirmation was made with ultrasonography etc.
- Patient who was pregnant or breast-feeding.
- Patient who was unwilling to use an "effective" method of contraception during treatment period and for up to 3 months after cessation of therapy. For males, condoms should be used. Females must be surgically sterile (via hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation), post-menopausal or using at least a medically acceptable barrier method of contraception (i.e., IUD, barrier methods with supermicide or abstinence)
- Patient who had a clinically relevant history of abuse of alcohol or drugs.
- Patient who had a significant gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic (decompensated), bronchopulmonary, neurological, cardiovascular, oncologic or allergic disease.
- Patient who had creatinine clearance less than 60mL/min as estimated by the following formula:
(140-age in years) (body weight [kg])/(72) (serum creatinine [mg/dL]) [Note: multiply estimates by 0.85 for women]
