EXPERIMENTALPlacebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORInterventions
The assignment will be as follows: (Each DCB-BO1202 300mg capsule contains 150mg active ingredient) DCB-BO1202: 4 DCB-BO1202 300mg capsules, t.i.d., orally. Duration of Administration: 96 weeks ((11 treatment weeks + 1 observation week) \* 8 cycles)
The assignment will be as follows: Placebo: 4 matched placebo, t.i.d., orally. Duration of Administration: 96 weeks ((11 treatment weeks + 1 observation week) \* 8 cycles)
The assignment will be as follows: (Each DCB-BO1202 300mg capsule contains 150mg active ingredient) DCB-BO1202+Placebo: 2 DCB-BO1202 300mg capsules plus 2 matched placebo, t.i.d., orally. Duration of Administration: 96 weeks ((11 treatment weeks + 1 observation week) \* 8 cycles)
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Aged 20-65 years (inclusive) of either gender
- With evidence of HBV infection confirmed by positive for Hepatitis B virus antigen (HBsAg)
- With Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) intermediate stage (BCLC-B) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
- Having received radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or transarterial embolization (TAE) for hepatitis B virus (HBV) related hepatocellular carcinoma at least 4 weeks before Screening
- With liver stiffness measurement (assessed by Fibroscan®) of 7-20 kPa
- Able to understand and willing to sign the informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Evidence or history of chronic hepatitis caused by Hepatitis C virus (HCV)
- With abnormal organ functions such as absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \< 1500 /μL, hemoglobin \< 9 gm/dL, platelets \< 50,000 /μL, creatinine \> 2 mg/dL, alanine aminotransferase (AST) or ALT \> 5 X upper normal limit of the current institution; bilirubin \> 2.5 mg/dL, prothrombin time (PT) prolongation \> 4 sec above upper limit of normal
- With uncontrolled infection or serious infection within the past 4 weeks
- With any other carcinoma except skin cancer
- Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding or with child-bearing potential but unable or unwilling to practice a highly effective means of contraception
- Active substance abuse, including alcohol, which, in the opinion of the investigator, risks impairing the ability of the patient to comply with the protocol
- History of allergy to any substance of investigational products
- With known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
- Judged to be not applicable to this study by investigator such as difficulty of follow-up observation
- With any other serious diseases/medical history considered by the investigator not in the condition to enter the trial
- Administered with any anti-HBV drugs within 4 weeks of entering this study. (Note: Anti-HBV treatments are allowed to be taken during study period when necessary.)
- Having participated other investigational study within 4 weeks of entering this study
