Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and antiviral efficacy of telbivudine by maintained suppression of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA (\<=300 copies/ml or 60IU/ml, undetectable by current polymerase chain reaction (PCR) - based assays) in HBeAg positive/negative patients at physician's general practice.

You may qualify if:
- Male or female, at least 18 years of age.
- Documented chronic hepatitis B defined by all of the following:
- Clinical history compatible with chronic hepatitis B.
- Detectable serum hepatitis B surface antigen \>= 6 months at screening visit, with either HBeAg positive or negative.

- Willing and able to provide written informed consent to participate in the study.
You may not qualify if:
- Females who are pregnant,intending to become pregnant or breast feeding.
- Patients with co-infection with hepatitis C virus, hepatitis D virus or human immunodeficiency virus.

- One or more known primary or secondary causes of liver disease other than hepatitis B (e.g., alcoholism, steatohepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, hemochromatosis, alpha-1 anti-trypsin deficiency, Wilson's disease, other congenital or metabolic conditions affecting the liver, congestive heart failure or other severe cardiopulmonary disease). Gilbert's syndrome and Dubin-Johnson syndrome will not exclude patients from participation in this trial.
