Brief Summary:
This is a randomized, open-labelled, prospective 96-week study comparing the antiviral efficacy and safety of switching to entecavir 1 mg QD from lamivudine versus maintaining lamivudine 100 mg QD treatment in HBV-infected subjects currently receiving lamivudine monotherapy.
Detailed Description:
Entecavir has a higher potent antiviral efficacy and a lower drug resistance rate than Lamivudine in nucleoside-naïve CHB patients. The prompt switch from Lamivudine to Entecavir in patients who have insufficient hepatitis B virus suppression (HBV DNA ≥ 60 IU/mL by PCR) may lead to full viral suppression to undetectable level by PCR method. The prompt switch from Lamivudine to Entecavir in patients who have insufficient hepatitis B virus suppression (HBV DNA ≥ 60 IU/mL) may preclude development of drug resistance. The results of this study will provide a rationale for switch treatment from one antiviral to another one, especially from LAM to ETV.
