Core Tip |
In the era of highly potent nucleoside and nucleotide analogues for the treatment of hepatitis B, long term viral suppression can be achieved with minimal risk of drug resistance. The use of these agents without hepatitis B immune globulin has been shown to be highly effective in preventing hepatitis B-related graft hepatitis, with excellent long-term outcome. Complete eradication of hepatitis B from the host however is unlikely, and long-term therapy is therefore required. Future developments aiming at different target sites together with immune restoration of the host against hepatitis B may make this elusive goal possible.
