Key Words Chronic hepatitis B; Clinical cure; Extended course of interferon; Hepatitis B surface antigen; Prediction model
Core Tip This study’s innovation lies in its exploration of the factors influencing extended interferon therapy (≥ 48 weeks) through multicenter cohort data, thereby avoiding the premature termination of potentially effective therapies and providing an evidence-based foundation for individualized treatment planning. For the first time, it incorporates baseline cirrhosis status and constructs a predictive model that integrates baseline hepatitis B surface antigen levels. The model demonstrated strong discriminatory ability in both the training cohort and the externally validated cohort.
