Pregnancy is a complex and coordinated physiological process. Pregnancy and the postpartum period are associated with unique changes in the immune system that may impact the natural history of autoimmune diseases and immune-mediated infections. In the postpartum period. ALT flares have been reported in 20%-60% of untreated women and were more likely to occur in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive patients. It has been postulated that postpartum ALT flares may arise to rapid immune restitution against hepatitis B virus (HBV) antigens in the liver, when may be a timing of antiviral treatment. A large number of previous studies have focused on studies on the interruption of mother-to-child transmission in women with chronic hepatitis B(CHB), but studies on the prognosis of mothers undergoing pregnancy and delivery are very limited. What are the factors that affect the clearance of HBeAg or HBsAg? What kind of antiviral treatment protocol should be adopted for mothers with CHB? It is not only a problem that needs to be solved urgently in clinical practice, but also can provide some clues for understanding the occurrence and development of HBV infection in women of childbearing age. Overall, this study intends to carry out a multi-center two-way cohort study on E antigen-positive CHB women in 9 hospitals in Shaanxi Province. To observe the dynamic changes of virological parameters in these patients, figure out the factors of the serum HBsAg loss and HBeAg seroconversion, and establish relevant predictive models.
Multicenter, Open-label, Single arm Trial with Matched Historical controls. Male and female adults with compensated liver cirrhosis due to chronic hepatitis B virus infection who have low-level viremia. To assess the efficacy of Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) in reducing liver-related events (hepatocellular carcinoma, liver-related events and death, decompensated liver cirrhosis) in cirrhotic chronic hepatitis B patients with low-level viremia compared with matched historical controls.
In this study we will prospectively stop NA in both Caucasian and non-Caucasian patients matched for gender and age, to validate the observed host and viral parameters for future roll-out of this treatment strategy.
In the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB), viral suppression is closely related to disease progression, and the lower the viral load, the lower the risk of progression to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In addition, a considerable number of patients in China are still using non-first-line antiviral therapy, such as adefovir dipivoxil, lamivudine, and telbivudine (ADV/LAM/LdT). About 25% of patients who received entecavir(ETV) treatment for more than half a year and confirmed that their DNA had turned negative by non-high-precision detection methods still had low viremia (LLV,DNA>20 IU/ml,IU=international unit), and LLV patients were twice as likely to develop HCC as patients with complete viral response.Patients who have received ETV or second-line NA(LAM/ADV/LdT) treatment for more than half a year to 1 year and confirmed HBV-DNA>10IU/ml by high-precision detection method are recommended to adjust the treatment plan in order to reduce the DNA load below 10IU/ml as soon as possible. It is up to the doctor, in consultation with the patient, to decide whether or not to make the adjustment.
In Taiwan, non-cirrhosis CHB patients with mildly elevated ALT are not candidates for antiviral treatment under Taiwan NIH reimbursement criteria. Disease severity could range from mildly liver injury to cirrhosis in this group of patients. There is a substantial population of patients required antiviral treatment, but not fulfill the criteria of reimbursement treatment. For the 2 phase 3 trials of TAF, the treatment criteria of ALT were more than 2x of ULN and did not included liver biopsy as a pre-treatment assessment. In this study, CHB patient with ALT level of 1-2x ULN and significant liver injury evaluated by liver biopsy is the target study population.
Mother to Child transmission is the main route of hepatitis B virus (HBV) transmission in China, attributing to over 50% HBV infection. Familial aggregation in HBV infection is well recognized with underlying stipulations like mother-to-child transmission（MTCT）, susceptible genes, close contact and other factors. Not surprisingly, a large proportion of hepatitis B virus infected population in China have a family history of hepatitis B virus infection. In clinical practice those family members usually undergo merely hepatitis B virus serology tests without HBV DNA test, which ruled out false HBsAg (-) or Occult HBV Infection (OBI) from Screening and linkage to care (SLTC). Unfortunately, the missed-out OBI in CHB family members was of a greater prevalence compared to those from general population (8.0% vs. 2.6%) . Moreover, OBI has been well recognized as strong risk factor in hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC） development with significant HBV DNA integration into host genome . In light of the latest 2019 China CHB guidelines, treatment criteria covered subjects with family history of CHB related cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Therefore, subjects of HBsAg (+) with normal alanine aminotransferase（ALT） or OBI are eligible for further consideration of HBV anti-viral treatment. This study proposed will explore the prevalence of OBI in subjects with family history of HBV related cirrhosis or HCC. The screened HBsAg (+) with normal alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and OBI subjects would be linked to anti-viral therapies.
Studies have shown that the HBeAg seroconversion rate of HBeAg positive chronic hepatitis B with tenofovir for one year's treatment was 17.8% and the negative conversion rate of their HBeAg and HBV DNA were 20.0% and 97.6%. The HBeAg Seroconversion rate of these patients was lower.Clinically, most patients need to take tenofovir for a long time, which may cause serious complications such as renal function damage,with decreased therapy compliance and Increased cost of treatment.In the course of tenofovir treatment, it is common that HBV-DNA negative patients with HBeAg Being down poor or staying at a low positive level for a long time keep taking the medicine. Therefore, it is Significant to Increase the HBeAg seroconversion rate of tenofovir during the clinical treatment. Telbivudine has a strong antiviral effect.Studies have shown that the HBeAg seroconversion rate of HBeAg positive CHB for one year was 25%, which was higher than other nucleosides, and it could also improve the damaged renal function to a certain extent.The HBeAg seroconversion rate of patients with poor response to tenofovir for 12 months could be still poor if for 24 months . Therefore, this study is to observe the efficacy of these patients combined with telbivudine.
To analyze the incidence of liver cancer after entecavir administration among patients with low viral load and cirrhosis due to chronic hepatitis B infection.
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is an important public health problem in the world. There are still more than 250 million chronic hepatitis B virus (CHB) infected people in the world. Its preventive effect has reached a relatively ideal effect, but its therapeutic effect still has great room for improvement. Tenofovir(TDF) is the first-line antiviral treatment with good clinical efficacy. However, some patients who take TDF for a long time have different degrees of renal dysfunction, which limits the use of TDF in these patients. Tenofovir Alafenamide Fumarate (TAF) has better plasma stability and stronger liver targeting, and reduces the side effects of renal function damage and bone mineral density reduction. Telbivudine (LDT), a nucleoside analogue, has the advantages of rapidly reducing HBV viral load and high HBeAg seroconversion rate. In addition, prospective studies have shown that LDT can improve the estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR).Therefore, this study aims to explore the clinical study of LDT combined with TDF and TAF in patients treated with tenofovir and EGFR < 90ml / min / 1.72m².
