Summary
Research Objective and Study End Points To evaluate the anti-HBV as well as HCC recurrence reducing effects of standard (18 months) lamivudine treatment at time of HBV reactivation with hepatitis flare up (HBV DNA > 105 copies/mL and ALT level > 2.0 x UNL) or prophylactic, prolong (36 months) adefovir dipivoxil therapy in post-operative HBsAg(+),< 5 cm HCC patients, and to compare the results of who group with historical controls (T1297, HBsAg+,< 5 cm HCC cohort),in terms of the following endpoints. 1. Primary endpoint: the 3-years recurrence rate (excluding those recur within first year). 2. Secondary endpoints: the first 2 year tumor recurrence rates the recurrence-free survival the overall survival. anti-viral efficacy, i.e. biochemical response and viral response rate. to correlate the changes of viral titer with the clinical outcome in post- operative HCC patients with adjuvant lamivudine or adefovir therapy.
