Key Words Chronic hepatitis B; Tenofovir; Asian patients; Fibrosis; High viral load
Core Tip Although a substantial proportion of the worldwide hepatitis B virus-infected population is Asian, this is often not reflected in clinical trial populations. Comparison of data from Asian and non-Asian patients is important to provide a better understanding of treatment outcome in Asian populations. Our analysis is the first and largest to compare early (48 wk) response to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in Asian and non-Asian patients during large-scale clinical studies. Overall, TDF demonstrated similar viral suppression, normalization of alanine aminotransaminase and improvements in liver fibrosis, with no resistance, in all cohorts, irrespective of baseline hepatitis B e antigen status and viral load.
