Measure Type Secondary
Measure Title Summary of Resistance Surveillance for Participants With Virologic Breakthrough
Measure Description Serum was collected for HBV resistance surveillance, and sequence analysis of the HBV polymerase was assessed through di-deoxy sequencing of baseline and postbaseline samples.
Time Frame Week 48  
Safety Issue No  

Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
2 participants received >= 1 dose of study drug, remained viremic (HBV DNA >= 400 copies/mL) after 48 weeks of TDF treatment, had serum sample for testing, and had virologic breakthrough (defined as HBV DNA >= 400 copies/mL [confirmed] after having HBV DNA levels < 400 copies/mL and/or 1-log10 increase [confirmed] in HBV DNA above nadir).

Certain Agreements:  
Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.
There IS an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed.
The agreement is:
unchecked The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is less than or equal to 60 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.
unchecked The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is more than 60 days but less than or equal to 180 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.


Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
