BERLIN -- April 4, 2011 -- LB80380 has comparable antiviral activity, with the same safety profile, as entecavir in treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV), researchers said here at the 46th Annual Meeting of the European Association of the Study of the Liver (EASL).
Although low serum L-carnitine levels can occur with LB80380, these are normalised in all patients with carnitine supplementation, according to Ching-Lung Lai, MD, University of Hong Kong, and Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong.
“[LB80380] is a novel nucleotide analogue of guanosine monophosphate which is potent activity against hepatitis B virus,” said Dr. Lai on April 2.
The researchers investigated clinical activity, safety, and tolerability of two LB80380 doses in comparison with entecavir, as a noninferiority study.
Treatment-naïve patients with chronic were assigned to open-label entecavir 0.5 mg/day (n = 35) or double-blind LB80380 90 mg plus placebo (n = 34) or LB80380 90 mg plus 60 mg (n = 33), daily.
Alanine transaminase (ALT) levels needed to be >1.2x upper limit of normal (ULN) and <10x ULN, with compensated liver disease.
The 3 treatment groups saw similar mean HBV DNA decreases at week 24: -5.31, -4.99, -5.03 log10 IU/mL, respectively.
Undetectable HBV DNA was seen for 62.9%, 58.8%, and 63.6% of patients; normalised ALT levels for 85.7%, 73.5%, and 81.8% of patients; hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) loss for 14.3%, 15.8%, and 11.1% of patients; and HBeAg seroconversion for 4.8%, 5.3%, and 11.1% of patients.
Incidence and severity of adverse events with low with no differences across the treatment groups. This was the same for the laboratory analyses, except for serum L-carnitine levels. These fell below the reference range in with LB80380 treatment. “Patients were given just commercial L-carnitine supplements, and all of them returned to normal,” added Dr. Lai. At least one L-carnitine supplement was received by 55.6%/71.8% of patients in the LB80380 90-mg/150-mg groups.

Above was mentioned in your artical, how can you conclude LB80380 有副作用?any 证据? 作者: StephenW 时间: 2011-4-6 14:09

Simple, if you read carefully.
"This was the same for the laboratory analyses, except for serum L-carnitine levels. These fell below the reference range in with LB80380 treatment. “Patients were given just commercial L-carnitine supplements, and all of them returned to normal,” added Dr. Lai.

1. 请问如果排除了这条,其他方面LB80380与恩替相当的话?LB80380是不是更有价值?毕竟我们可以靠饮食来补充。No, why is LB80380 better than ENT. LB80380 has a side effect that needs to be corrected by taking a supplement.
2. 你所陈述的“LB80380的这个不良反应”VS“恩替的致癌性”相比,哪个更严重?二者取其一,你选哪个?You ask a loaded question. Is causing cancer a side-effect of Entecavir? If it is, you are saying the sFDA approved the use of a drug with cancer causing side-effect? ENT is approved by FDA and TGA, I would use it. If LB80380 is approved by FDA and TGA, I would use it too.
Now I answer your question. Just answer me:
Since 2005, did FDA issue any cancer warning about ENT? 作者: aa1021 时间: 2011-4-17 23:53
