Trial overview
Official title: A multi-centre, one-arm prospective study to evaluate efficacy and safety of switching from Entecavir (ETV) to Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) in Japanese chronic hepatitis B HBeAg-positive and HBV-DNA undetectable subjects
Trial description: Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate is a nucleos(t)ide analogue that inhibits Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) growth, and is marketed in Japan with an indication for inhibition of HBV growth in subjects with chronic hepatitis B associated with HBV growth and abnormal liver function. This study has been planned to evaluate the virological effects and safety of switching from ETV to TDF in chronic hepatitis B (hepatitis B e-antigen [HBeAg])-positive and HBV- deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) undetectable subjects. This study is designed as a multi-center, one-arm, post-marketing clinical study to investigate the HBsAg reduction in subjects who have not achieved the long-term goal, the loss of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). The study will be conducted in HBeAg-positive and HBV-DNA undetectable subjects treated with ETV. After switching ETV to TDF, TDF will be administered for 96 weeks. Approximately 80 subjects will be screened to achieve 65 evaluable subjects.

Accepts healthy volunteers
No
- Subjects must be 20 to 69 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent
- Male and female subjects. A female subject is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant and not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies:
- QTc > 450 millisecond (msec) or > 480 msec for subjects with bundle branch block
- Received any interferon or Hepatitis B vaccine therapy within 24 weeks prior to initiation of the study treatment.
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Subjects must be 20 to 69 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent
- Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP), OR
- A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance during the treatment period and for at least 4 days after the last dose of study treatment
- Capable of giving signed informed consent form (ICF)

- Subjects treated with ETV for at least 2 years prior to initiation of study treatment.
- The serum HBV-DNA level at screening is below the limit of quantitation (< 2.1 Log10 copies/milliliter [mL] or < 20 international unit [IU]/mL).
