Hepatitis B Paid Clinical Trials in Massachusetts

This is a global multi-center, long-term follow-up study to assess durability of efficacy, as measured by maintenance of treatment response from the parent study, in participants who participated in a previous bepirovirsen study and achieved a complete or partial response. Eligible participants will be enrolled in this study after completing the end of study (EoS) visit in the respective parent bepirovirsen studies (studies B-Clear \[209668: NCT04449029\], B-Together \[209348: NCT04676724\], B-Fine \[212602: NCT04544956\], B-Well 1 \[202009: NCT05630807\], B-Well 2 \[219288: NCT05630820\], and TH HBV ASO-001 \[217023: NCT05276297\]). Participants will be categorized as Not-on-NA, NA-cessated, or On-NA based on their nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) status in the parent study. No further treatment with bepirovirsen will be administered in this study. Read Less

The National Liver Cancer Screening Trial is an adaptive randomized phase IV Trial comparing ultrasound-based versus biomarker-based screening in 5500 patients with cirrhosis from any etiology or patients with chronic hepatitis B infection. Eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to Arm A using semi-annual ultrasound and AFP-based screening or Arm B using semi-annual screening using GALAD alone. Randomization will be stratified by sex, enrolling site, Child Pugh class (A vs. B), and HCC etiology (viral vs. non-viral). Patients will be recruited from 15 sites (mix of tertiary care and large community health systems) over a 3-year period, and the primary endpoint of the phase IV trial, reduction in late-stage HCC, will be assessed after 5.5 years.
