NCT02332473

Brief Summary

This study is a multi-center, randomized, prospective open-label study to assess the efficacy and safety of combination of peginterferon alfa-2b (40kD, Y-shape) and GM-CSF in interferon-naïve chronic hepatitis B patients with HBeAg positive. Patients were randomized to one of the 2 groups to receive different antiviral treatment.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • yrs≤age≤65yrs.
  • ≤BMI(body mass index)≤28.
  • HBsAg positive≥6 months.
  • Serum HBV DNA≥20,000IU/ml, HBsAg positive and HBeAg positive at screening.
  • ULN≤ALT≤10ULN(ULN=upper limit of normal) at screening.
  • Pregnancy test must be negative for female patients of childbearing potential. All patients take effective birth control measures during treatment and 6 months after the treatment.

  • Interferon treatment history, or using nucleos(t)ide analogues for chronic hepatitis B treatment within the previous 6 months, or any evidence of nucleosi(t)ide analogues resistance .
  • Receiving strong immunomodulatory agents (e.g., steroids, thymosin) for more than two weeks 6 months prior to screening.
  • Receiving hepatotoxicity agents (e.g., aczone, erythromycin, fluconazole, ketoconazole, rifampicin) for more than two weeks 6 months prior to screening.
  • Co-infected with active hepatitis A, hepatitis C, hepatitis D, and/or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
  • History or evidence of a medical condition associated with chronic liver disease other than viral hepatitis (e.g., autoimmune hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, toxin exposures.
  • Suffering from any other acute or chronic infectious disease.
  • Mental disorder or physical disability, or family history of neurological and psychiatric disorders.
  • Neutrophil count \<1500 cells/mm3, or platelet count \<90000 cells/mm3 at screening.
  • Child-Pugh≥B, or other evidence of liver decompensation (e.g. serum albumin\<35g/L , prothrombin time\>3 seconds prolonged, serum bilirubin\>2ULN, prothrombin activity \<60%, history of liver decompensation).
  • Serum creatinine level \>ULN in screening period.
  • Serum creatine kinase level \>2ULN except for physiological factors (e.g., exercise).
  • AFP\>100ng/L. If 50ng/L\<AFP\<100ng/L at screening, retest 2 weeks later, and if AFP \<50ng/L can enrolled, vs, excluded.
  • Hepatocarcinoma or suffering from any other malignant tumor.
  • Autoimmune disease(e.g., psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus).
