Brief Summary

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

Evaluate the potential of ART combined with interferon therapy to achieve functional cure of hepatitis B in HIV/HBV co-infected patients

Detailed Description

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

This is a prospective, non-randomized, clinical observational cohort study. The subjects are the advantageous population for functional cure of hepatitis B in HIV/HBV co-infected patients . Depending on whether interferon therapy is used in the real world , the patients are divided into two groups: the ART combined with interferon group and the ART alone group, with 30 cases in each group. Hepatitis B surface antigen seroclearance rate and seroconversion rate will be observed during the study period.

Study Groups

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

ART combined with interferon group

The treatment protocol is ART combined with pegylated interferon α-2b injection. The pegylated interferon α-2b injection is administered subcutaneously at a dose of 180ug once a week. Follow-up times are at baseline, and during treatment at weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72.

Peginterferon alfa-2b Injection

Intervention Type DRUG

The pegylated interferon α-2b injection is administered subcutaneously at a dose of 180ug once a week.

ART group

Continuously using ART treatment, without the use of interferon. Follow-up times are at baseline, and during treatment at weeks 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72.
