City:		Washington
State:		District of Columbia
Zip Code:		20007

Conditions:		Hepatitis B
Purpose:		HepaGam B Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (HBIG) solution contains 10% maltose, which could possibly interfere with the measurement of glucose levels when using glucose non-specific tests. The purpose of this study is to determine whether use of HepaGam B HBIG shows an increase in glucose levels in the body using non-specific glucose monitoring, as well as specific glucose monitoring. The sponsor believes that this medication will not cause a significant increase in glucose levels in the body when measured by glucose non-specific tests.
Study Summary:
Criteria:		Inclusion Criteria: - written informed consent - HBsAG positive candidates for HBV related liver transplant to be placed on HepaGam B therapy for the prevention of HBV recurrence in both the acute phase (immediately post operative) and the long term maintenance phase - at least 18 years of age Exclusion Criteria: - unable or unwilling to provide written informed consent - concomitant administration of other maltose containing products such as dietary supplements, dietary aids, IVIG, external peritoneal dialysis solution in both arms - concomitant administration of corticosteroids in the long term maintenance phase - pregnancy, as determined by a pregnancy test administered after consent has been signed
