Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in HBV DNA Concentration

The change from baseline in HBV DNA concentration at Weeks 12 and 24 was analyzed using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with baseline HBV DNA concentration (log10 copies/ml) as a covariate, treatment and country as factors. (NCT00412750)
Timeframe: Weeks 12 and 24

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Virologic Breakthrough at Weeks 48 and 52

The percentage of participants with Virologic breakthrough at Week 48 and 52 by treatment. For the subgroup of patients on treatment who achieve HBV DNA >= 1 log10 copies/mL reduction from baseline on 2 consecutive visits, Virologic Breakthrough is defined as HBV DNA >= 1 log10 copies/mL from nadir on two consecutive visits. (NCT00412750)

Percentage of Participants With HBV DNA Non-detectability and Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) Normalization at Week 12 and Week 24 in Participants With HBeAg-positive Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB)

The percentage of participants who achieved HBV DNA non-detectability using the COBAS Amplicor HBV Monitor assay utilizing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (threshold for detection 300 copies/mL) and Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization defined as ALT within normal limits on two successive visits for a patient with an elevated ALT (>1.0 x upper limit normal) at baseline summarized at Weeks 12 and 24.

Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis B 'e' Antigen (HBeAg) Loss and HBeAg Seroconversion

HBeAg loss is defined as the loss of detectable serum HBeAg in a patient who was HBeAg positive at baseline. HBeAg seroconversion is defined as HBeAg loss with detectable Hepatitis B 'e' antibody (HBeAb). The efficacy was assessed for 18 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 52 weeks and on treatment completion (TC). (NCT00412750)
