|---|---|
| Main Objective: To characterize the antiviral activity of tenofovir DF 300 mg QD versus emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir DF 300 mg QD in subjects currently being treated with adefovir dipivoxil for CHB who have persistent viral replication.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of tenofovir DF 300 mg QD versus emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir DF 300 mg QD in subjects currently being treated with adefovir dipivoxil for CHB who have persistent viral replication. To evaluate and compare the incidence of drug resistance mutations in HBV DNA polymerase in both treatment arms. ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the proportion of subjects with plasma HBV DNA < 169 copies/mL at Week 48. | — |
