研究概览
简要总结
This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, entecavir basic treatment, multicentre clinical study.
The main objective of this study was to confirm the efficacy and safety of hydronidone in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B liver fibrosis.
详细描述
248 patients with chronic viral hepatitis B liver fibrosis were enrolled in this 52-week study, and randomized into hydronidone or placebo group. Each group has 124 patients. Both groups were treated with entecavir antiviral basic therapy.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Ishak stage score of liver fibrosis by greater than or equal to 1 point after 52 weeks of treatment relative to baseline.
时间窗: 52 weeks
Clinically, the liver pathology scoring system, Ishak system, is widely used make a detailed and accurate assessment of the degree of parenchymal fibrosis or cirrhosis of the nontumorous liver. Ishak system uses a scale of 7 stages (scores 0-6) for the degree of fibrosis; the higher the score, the higher degree the severity of the disease.
次要结局
- Change in liver inflammation grade by greater than or equal to 1 grade after 52 weeks of treatment relative to baseline but with no progression of fibrosis.(52 weeks)
- Change in liver tissue inflammation grade by greater than or equal to 1 grade after 52 weeks of treatment relative to baseline.(52 weeks)
- Change in liver stiffness measurement values via transient elastography LSM (kPa)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment .)
- Negative conversion (below the lower limit of detection) and the extent of decrease in HBV DNA(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Normalization and the degree of improvement of the indicators of liver function ALT after 52 weeks of treatment.(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Safety endpoints:Laboratory examination(AFP test)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Safety endpoints:AE(52 weeks)
- Safety endpoints:Laboratory examination(Metabolic panel-AST)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Safety endpoints:Laboratory examination(Metabolic panel-GGT)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Safety endpoints:Laboratory examination(Metabolic panel-ALP)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Safety endpoints:Laboratory examination(Metabolic panel-TP)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Safety endpoints:Laboratory examination(Metabolic panel-A)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
- Safety endpoints:Laboratory examination(Metabolic panel-TBiL)(Screening period/baseline and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 52 after treatment.)
