Background/aims: Early on-treatment HBsAg decline is associated with sustained response post-treatment, and HBV DNA levels may improve prediction. This study in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients aims to identify how response to peginterferon alfa-2a (Peg-IFNα-2a) can be optimised through treatment extension or combination with nucleos(t)ide analogues using a response-guided treatment strategy. Interim results are reported.
Methods: After 24 weeks of Peg-IFNα-2a treatment, patients categorised as early responders (HBsAg < 1500 IU/mL and HBV DNA < 105 copies/mL) received Peg-IFNα-2a for a further 24 weeks (total 48 weeks; Arm A; N=66). Non-early responders were randomised to Peg-IFNα-2a for 24 (total 48 weeks; Arm B; N=67), 72 (total 96 weeks; Arm C;N=67) or 72 weeks plus adefovir add-on at week 29 for 36 weeks (total 96 weeks; Arm D; N=64). Patients were followed-up for 24 weeks post-treatment. Only patients in Arms A and B have completed follow-up.
Results: The analysis included 264 patients. HBeAg seroconversion at week 48 was achieved by 33.3% of patients in Arm A compared with 13.4%, 14.9% and 9.4% in Arms B, C and D. Addition of adefovir in Arm D resulted in a higher proportion of patients achieving HBV DNA < 2000 IU/mL (57.8%) versus Arms B (25.4%) and C (31.3%). At 24 weeks post-treatment, a higher rate of HBeAg seroconversion was observed in Arm A (48.5%) than B (31.3%), p=0.0435. Median HBsAg decline from baseline to week 72 was greater in Arm A than B, and a similar trend was observed for HBV DNA decline (Figures 1 and 2); treatment is ongoing in Arms C and D. Treatment was well-tolerated; only three patients discontinued treatment due to adverse events (one each in Arms A, B and D).
Summary: Early responders achieved higher rates of HBeAg seroconversion at weeks 48 and 72; HBsAg and HBV DNA declines from baseline to week 72 were also more pronounced. Results from Arms C and D, expected in 2013, will provide information regarding outcomes in non-early responders with treatment modification.
