Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Adults with chronic delta hepatitis |
Intervention | A: Adefovir dipivoxil, 10 mg, orally (po) for 48 weeks versus B: Pegylated interferon alpha-2a, 180 µg subcutaneously (sc), plus placebo for 48 weeks versus C: Pegylated interferon alpha-2a, 180 µg sc, plus adefovir dipivoxil, 10 mg po for 48 weeks; biopsy at the end of treatment |
