Core Tip |
A considerable proportion of patients fail to achieve hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion after the long-term loss of HBeAg, even if hepatitis B surface antigen loss occurs. It remains unclear whether nucleos(t)ide analogs (NAs) can be discontinued in this subset of patients. The current study included patients who discontinued NAs after achieving HBeAg loss (without hepatitis B e antibody) for long periods since 2001. We concluded that these patients may be able to discontinue NAs therapy after long-term consolidation. HBsAg at cessation < 100 IU/mL predicts sustained virological response after NAs cessation. Careful monitoring, especially in the early stages after cessation, may ensure a favorable outcome. |
