Number of Participants in each group with improvement in Child-Pugh score from baseline to Week 48 as measured by improvement in Child-Pugh class. Improvement in Child-Pugh Class is defined as change from B to A or C to A. Evaluable subjects are subjects with Child-Pugh Class B or C at Baseline. Child-Pugh classification assesses the prognosis of chronic liver disease by 5 clinical measures, scored 1-3 each (most severe derangement=3). Score range: 5 (best prognosis) to 15 (worst prognosis). Child-Pugh class A to C employs the added score from above: 5-6=Class A; 7-9=Class B; 10-15=Class C.

Adjusted mean change from baseline in MELD score through Week 48 (adjusted for baseline value). The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD), is a scoring system for assessing the severity of chronic liver disease. MELD uses the patient's values for serum bilirubin, serum creatinine, and the international normalized ratio for prothrombin time (INR) to predict survival. In interpreting the MELD Score in hospitalized patients, the 3 month mortality is: 40 or more=100% mortality; 30-39=83% mortality; 20-29=76% mortality; 10-19=27% mortality; \<10=4% mortality.

Population: This endpoint was not analyzed due to lack of complete data at 48 Weeks, but will be assessed at future time points.

Scoring for the SF-36 will be done using the algorithm developed by the Research ANd Development(RAND) Corporation (a scale of 0-100). Higher scores represent better quality of life. Coding for items with 2-category responses=0 and 100; 3-category=0/50/100; 5-category=0/25/50/75/100; 6-category=0/20/40/60/80/100. Scores of items in the same scale are combined to create the 8 scale scores (physical functioning, role-physical, bodily-pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, mental health). Physical and mental health composite scores will be computed for the group.

Population: This endpoint was not analyzed due to lack of complete data at 48 Weeks, but will be assessed at future time points.

The EQ-5D has 5 attributes (mobility, self-care, usual activity, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression), each with 3 levels (no problem, some problems, and major problems). This algorithm gives valuation (weights) to each of the 15 responses on the form. Each valuation is a negative number, subtracted from the maximum score of 1 (perfect well being). The overall health index score ranges from 0 (dead) to 1 (perfect health) value scale, and the visual analog scale ranges from 0 to 100. Item weights will be obtained from the EuroQol group.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: On-treatment=up to Week 48 (Day 336); if discontinued early, all data up to 5 days after discontinuation date.

Population: Treated participants - as treated. The on-treatment safety data set contains data from all randomized subjects treated with at least 1 dose of study therapy, ETV or ADV. Treatment group for safety data set is based on actual treatment received.

ALT flare=ALT \> 2 x baseline and \> 10 x upper limit of normal (ULN) by clinical laboratory evaluation. Table includes number of participants with selected clinical events and/or laboratory abnormalities during ALT flares. Selected clinical events during ALT flares=ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, jaundice, bacterial peritonitis. Selected Laboratory abnormalities during ALT flares=international normalized ratio \> 1.5 or prothrombin time \>= 1.2 x ULN and total bilirubin \>2.5 mg/dL and \> 1 mg/dL increase from baseline.
