Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (7)
Efficacy:
Antiviral activity (change from baseline in HBV DNA (log 10))
Safety:
Laboratory tests
Adverse Events

Secondary Outcomes (3)
Efficacy
Antiviral activity: proportion of patients with HBV DNA below the assay limit of detection (<4,700 copies/mL by Digene Hybrid Capture II assay)
Biochemical improvement (e.g. ALT normalization )
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients who were between 18 and 60, inclusive
- Patients with HBV DNA levels 1 x 105 copies/mL within 30 days of baseline.
- Patients who were documented to be HBsAg positive for \> 6 months (documentation of positive HBsAg for the previous 6 months included previous laboratory reports showing HBsAg positive at least 6 month ago OR lab results showing IgM anti-HBc negative and IgG anti-HBc positive at screening).
- Patients who were HBeAg negative and HBeAb positive.
- Patients with ALT levels which were in the range of ≥1.2 and \< 15 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) and bilirubin levels less than 2.0 mg/dL, prothrombin time of less than 1.7 (INR), a serum albumin level of at least 3.5 g/dL.
- Women of childbearing potential with a negative serum (β-HCG) pregnancy test taken 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.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who were currently receiving antiviral, immunomodulatory or corticosteroid therapy.
- Patients previously treated with lamivudine, lobucavir, famciclovir, adefovir or any other investigational nucleoside for HBV infection. Previous treatment with interferon that had ended less than 6 months prior to the screening visit.
- Patients with a history of ascites, variceal hemorrhage or hepatic encephalopathy.
- Patients coinfected with HCV, HDV or HIV.
- Patients with clinical evidence of liver mass or with alfa-fetoprotein \> 50 ng/mL
- Patients who were pregnant or breast-feeding.
- Patients who were unwilling to use an "effective" method of contraception during the treatment period and for up to 3 months after cessation of therapy. For males, condoms should be used. Females had to be surgically sterile (via hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation) or post-menopausal or using at least medically acceptable barrier method of contraception (i.e. IUD, barrier methods with spermicide or abstinence)
- Patients with a clinically relevant history of abuse of alcohol or drugs.
- Patients with a significant gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic (decompensated), broncho-pulmonary, biliary diseases except asymptomatic GB stone, neurological, cardiovascular, oncologic or allergic disease. The patient with a benign tumor was excluded if judged by an investigator that the continuation of study would be interfered by benign tumor.
- Patients with creatinine clearance less than 60mL/min as estimated by the following formula:
- (140-age in years) (body weight \[kg\])/(72) (serum creatinine \[mg/dL\]) \[Note: multiply estimates by 0.85 for women\]
