ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how to predict the improvement of liver health in patients with chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection who have already received antiviral treatment. The researchers are looking at 1,000 patients who had liver biopsies at least one year after their treatment. They will gather various health information, including blood tests and imaging results, to create a model that can help estimate how well the liver is healing over time. The goal is to better understand liver fibrosis, which is the scarring of the liver, and to find ways to tell if patients are getting better.

To participate in this trial, patients need to have had a liver biopsy done at least a year after they started antiviral therapy. They should not have serious liver complications or other severe health issues, and they cannot have certain other liver diseases or conditions. If eligible, participants can expect to provide health information and have their liver condition monitored, which may help improve care for others with similar conditions in the future. This research is important because it aims to develop a simple way to assess liver health that can benefit many patients with chronic HBV.
