NCT ID NCT07540637
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a mobile app called HBVCare can help people with chronic hepatitis B take their medication regularly and attend follow-up visits. About 70 adults in Vietnam will either use the app or receive standard care. After 3 months, researchers will compare how well each group follows their treatment plan.
