简要总结
Infants of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected mothers with positive hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) have an increased risk of becoming infected with HBV. This study will determine whether telbivudine among both hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBeAg positive pregnant women during the third trimester, in addition to standard immunoprophylaxis in infants, will be more effective than standard immunoprophylaxis alone at preventing HBV infections in these infants.
详细描述
Infants of HBV-infected mothers with positive HBeAg have an increased risk of becoming infected with HBV. Standard immunoprophylaxis against mother-to-infant transmission of HBV includes administration of hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) and hepatitis B vaccine; however, approximately 5-15% of the infants are not protected despite having received these preventive measures. It is reported that antiviral prophylaxis among HBV-infected pregnant women can reduce mother-to-infant transmission of HBV. However, more research is needed to obtain the definite conclusion. This study will determine whether telbivudine among HBsAg- and HBeAg-positive pregnant women during the third trimester, in addition to standard immunoprophylaxis in infants, will be more effective than standard immunoprophylaxis alone at preventing HBV infections in these infants.

研究组 & 干预措施
Telbivudine
HBsAg- and HBeAg-positive pregnant women at 28-32 weeks of gestation start to orally take telbivudine (600 mg/day) until 4 weeks after delivery. Newborn infants receive standard immunoprophylaxis.
干预措施: Telbivudine (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
HBV serologic markers and alanine transaminase (ALT) levels in infants
时间窗: 10 months after birth
HBsAg and HBeAg are tested in umbilical blood and peripheral blood collected at the age of 10 months respectively. ALT is measured at 10 months old.
次要结局
- Women and infants with adverse events(Up to 10 months after delivery/birth)
