Brief summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss and seroconversion in participants who stop tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) (Stop TDF arm) compared to participants who continue TDF (Continue TDF arm). Only participants who already are on treatment with TDF monotherapy or TDF in combination with lamivudine or emtricitabine for at least 4 years and who achieved and maintained virologic suppression (\< 400 copies/mL) for 3.5 or more years will be included in this study. One treatment arm will stop the TDF therapy while the other treatment arm will continue the TDF therapy. Participants in the Stop TDF arm will be monitored very closely with special focus on biochemical flares (especially alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increases) and virological relapses (Hepatitis B viral load increases). If any participant in the Stop TDF arm exceeds one or more predefined limits for such flares or relapses, TDF treatment will be reinstituted.

Population: Participants in the Full Analysis Set with available data were analyzed. Percentages are based on the number of participants with non-missing laboratory test results at each visit. One participant restarted TDF during Weeks 72 and 120 and thus was reported in both the Stop TDF and Re-Start TDF groups based on the date of TDF restart.

Viral suppression is defined as 2 consecutive assessments of HBV DNA \< 400 copies/mL (69 IU/mL) through Week 144.

Time frame: Baseline to Week 144

Population: Participants in the FAS with available data were analyzed. When participant randomized in the Stop TDF group restarted TDF therapy, that participant was considered part of the Restart TDF group from that point forward. 1 participant restarted TDF during Wk 72, thus was reported in both Stop TDF and Restart TDF arms based on the TDF restart date.

Proportion of Participants Who Restart TDF Therapy in the Stop TDF Arm

Time frame: Weeks 48, 96, and 144

Population: Full Analysis Set (FAS): participants who were randomized to Stop TDF group and had a baseline visit or who were randomized to Continue TDF group and received at least 1 dose of study drug. Proportions are based on the Kaplan-Meier estimate.
