Malignancy
NO
The aim of this study is to elucidate whether entecavir treatment prevents a cancer recurrence or not, in the patients with hepatocellular carcinoma complicated with chronic hepatitis B or cirrhosis after a curative therapy of the cancer, i.e., curative resection or radiofrequency ablation. Addingly, the long-term estimation of entecavir treatment will be made about the influence on serum HBV DNA level, serum ALT, hepatic reserve, drug resistance, survival, and safety.
Efficacy
Confirmatory
Pragmatic
Phase IV
(1)Recurrence-free survival: recurrence or not is diagnosed by enhanced CT, enhanced MRI, or ultrasonography.(2)AFP, AFP-L3, PIVKA-II (3)Survival (4)Event-free survival, i.e., survival without gastrointestinal hemorrhage or development(or aggravation) of hepatic failure such as jaundice, ascites, or hepatic encephalopathy.
(1)Change of HBV DNA from pretreatment level, rate of the patients whose HBV DNA level decrease below 2.6 log copy/ml. (2)Clearance or seroconversion of HBeAg (3)ALT, albumin, prothrombin time (%), total bilirubin, platelet count, ascites (none, slight, moderate or much) (4)Emergence of entecavir-resistance

Treatment
Medicine |
Entecavir arm: entecavir (brand name: Baraclude) administration orally in a daily dose of 0.5mg before retiring at night, is started within 1 month after registration, and continued for 48 months. Afterwards, the doctor decides to continue or discontinue entecavir administration, dependent on HBV DNA level, ALT level and clinical conditions.
Control arm: The patients receive their therapy without anti viral medications such as entecavir, lamivudine, adefovir dipivoxil or interferon. In the case of development of cancer recurrence or hepatic failure, however, the doctor may start entecavir treatment.

Male and Female
(1) Chronic hepatitis B or cirrhosis with positive HBsAg and HBV DNA above 5.0 log copies/ml.(2) Hepatocellular carcinoma of the patient, naïve or recurrent, has been curably treated with radiofrequency ablation therapy or hepatic resection resection and recurrence is not detected by enhancement CT or enhancement MRI within 3 months before the registration.
(1)The patients who has an allergy against nucleos(t)ide analogues(2)The patients who have received interferon or nucleoside analogue within 6 months before registration(3) Pregnant women, or women who are nursing.(4)The patients with other chronic liver disease, such as autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, alcoholic hepatitis, or chronic hepatitis C.(5)The patients with an uncontrollable heart trouble (myocardial infarction, heart failure, or arrhythmia)(6)The patients with chronic renal failure or chronic respiratory failure(7)The patients who were thought to be inapproriate for this study by the doctor
