NCT ID NCT05410496

First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether switching to a newer hepatitis B medication (tenofovir alafenamide) is safe and effective for people who have had a kidney or liver transplant. About 52 adult transplant recipients with chronic hepatitis B will be followed to check kidney function, virus levels, and how well they take their medicine. The goal is to see if this switch can better control the virus while protecting the transplanted organ.
