ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Hepatitis Be Antigen (HBeAg) Seroconversion 24 Weeks Following End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)
Blood was collected for HBeAg. HBeAg seroconversion was defined as the absence of HBeAg (a negative result for HBeAg) and the presence of anti-HBe (a positive result for anti-HBe) determined at 24 weeks after the end of treatment.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Hepatitis Be Antigen (HBeAg) Seroconversion at Week 72Week 72
Blood was collected for HBeAg. HBeAg seroconversion was defined as the absence of HBeAg (a negative result for HBeAg) and the presence of anti-HBe (a positive result for anti-HBs) determined at Week 72.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Loss of Hepatitis Be Antigen (HBeAg) 24 Weeks Following End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)Blood was collected HBeAg 24 Weeks following the end of treatment. Loss of HBeAg is defined as the absence of HBeAg.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) Seroconversion 24 Weeks Following the End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)HBsAg seroconversion was defined as the absence of HBsAg (a negative result for HBsAg) and the presence of anti-HBs (a positive result for anti-HBs) determined at 24 weeks after the end of treatment.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Loss of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) 24 Weeks Following End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)Blood was collected for HBsAg 24 weeks following the end of treatment. Loss of HBsAg is defined as the absence of HBsAg.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Normal Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT)24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)Blood was collected 24 weeks following the end of treatment for ALT and was analyzed at a local laboratory. A normal ALT is a value within the normal range of the assay.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Hepatitis B Virus Deoxyribonucleic Acid (HBV-DNA) Suppression < 20,000 IU/mL 24 Weeks Following End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)
Blood was collected for HBV-DNA 24 weeks following the end of treatment and was analyzed at the central laboratory using the Roche approved polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methodology. Percentage of participants with a HBV-DNA suppression of \< 20,000 IU/mL (Less than 100,000 copies/mL) is reported.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Hepatitis Deoxyribonucleic Acid (HBV-DNA) Suppression < 2,000 IU/mL 24 Weeks Following End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment of Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)
Blood was collected for HBV-DNA and was analyzed at the central laboratories using the Roche approved PCR methodology 24 weeks following the end of treatment. Percentage of participants with A HBV-DNA Suppression of \< 2,000 IU/mL (Less than 10,000 copies/mL) is reported.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Combined Endpoint Response 24 Weeks Following End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)Combined endpoint was defined as HBeAg seroconversion, a normal serum ALT and HBV-DNA suppression below 20,000 IU/mL.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Dual Endpoint Response 24 Weeks Following End of Treatment24 Weeks following end of treatment (Week 48 for 24 Week Treatment or Week 72 for 48 Week Treatment)Dual endpoint was defined as the achievement of both HBeAg seroconversion and a HBV-DNA \<2,000 IU/ml (Less than 10,000 copies/mL).
