Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study is to observe the therapeutic effects and long-term follow-up after ending anti-HBV therapy with nucleos(t)ide analogs in patients with chronic hepatitis b.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients with chronic hepatitis b were enrolled in the study. Age, sex, weight, height, symptoms (e.g., fatigue, poor appetite, jaundice), relapse, retreatment, occurrence of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), mortality and survival rate were recorded in the study. We also observed the laboratory tests including the levels of white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (HGB), platelet (PLT), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), total bilirubin (TBIL), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatine, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA, CD4 positive T lymphocyte (CD4+T), CD8 positive T lymphocyte (CD8+T), Type 1 helper T lymphocyte (Th1), Type 2 helper T lymphocyte (Th2),fibroscan and B ultrasound. If clinical relapse occurred, patients were retreated with nucleos(t)ide analogs.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

retreatment

1. Patients with HBV DNA \> 2000 IU/ml and ALT ≥ 5×ULN;
2. Patients with HBV DNA \> 2000 IU/ml and 2×ULN \< ALT ≤ 5×ULN, but have clinical symptoms.

Intervention: Patients of this group will receive Entecavir 0.5mg/d or Tenofovir 300mg/d again.

Entecavir or Tenofovir

Intervention Type DRUG

Patients in retreatment group receive nucleos(t)ide analogs therapy (Entecavir 0.5mg/d or Tenofovir 300mg/d) again

non-retreatment

1. Patients with HBV DNA ≤ 2000 IU/ml;
2. Patients with HBV DNA \> 2000 IU/ml and ALT ≤ 2×ULN;
3. Patients with HBV DNA \> 2000 IU/ml and 2×ULN \< ALT ≤ 5×ULN, but have no clinical symptoms.
