  • Gilead may allow enrollment of subjects with values available from
  • Minimally elevated ALT is defined as between lower limit of normal (LLN) and 1.2 times upper limit of normal (ULN) for HBeAg-positive and between lower limit of normal (LLN) and 1.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN) for HBeAg-negative patients. Child-Turcotte-Pugh score less than 7 and no evidence of ascites, variceal bleeding, or hepatic encephalopathy or impaired clotting function within 12 months prior to the Enrollment Visit.

  • History or evidence of HIV, hepatitic C, or hepatitis D. Other causes for liver disease other than hepatitis B, including but not limited to: hemochromatosis, Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, Wilson's disease, Drug-related liver disease, Autoimmune hepatitis, Alcoholic liver disease, Obesity-induced liver disease (nonalcoholic seatohepatitis, NASH). History of, or current alcohol or substance abuse judged by the investigator to potentially interfere with laboratory or biopsy results.
