A Study of Early Immunologic Response in Asian Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B, Treated With Pegasys (Peginterferon Alfa-2a (40KD)), Nucleoside Analogues, or Both
An Open-label, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Acute Immunologic Responses in Asian Subjects With E Antigen Positive Chronic Hepatitis B Following Initiation of Therapy for Hepatitis B With Pegasys, Nucleoside Analogues, or Both.

This open-label, randomized, parallel-arm study will assess the early immunologic response in treatment-naïve Asian male patients with chronic hepatitis B after initiation of treatment with Pegasys or tenofovir or Pegasys plus tenofovir. Patients will be randomized to one of 4 cohorts to receive either Pegasys (360mcg subcutaneously weekly) or tenofovir (300mg orally daily) or both or no treatment for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks on study treatment, patients may opt to receive standard of care treatment with Pegasys. Target sample size is <50.
