Background: Discontinuation of ETV/TDF is discussed as
a strategy to induce HBsAg loss in HBeAg-negative chronic
hepatitis B (CHBe-) but is also associated with variable relapse/
retreatment rates. We examined predictors of HBsAg loss and
retreatment in non-cirrhotic CHBe- patients who discontinued
long-term effective ETV/TDF therapy. Methods: We included
60 CHBe- patients without pre-treatment cirrhosis who were
prospectively enrolled and followed in the DARING-B study.
All were followed for ≥12 months (mos) or until retreatment
(baseline, monthly for first 3 mos and every 2/3 mos thereafter
for detectable/undetectable HBVDNA). Main retreatment
criteria were ALT>10xULN, ALT>3xULN & HBV DNA>100,000
IU/mL, ALT>ULN & HBV DNA>2000 IU/mL on 3 sequential
occasions. HBcrAg, HBsAg and IP10 levels were determined
by enzyme immunoassays (Lumipulse, Fujirebio; Elecsys,
Roche; Instant Elisa, eBioscience) in serial serum samples
stored at each visit after stopping ETV/TDF. Results: Mean
patient follow-up has been 19±9 mos. The cumulative rates
of HBsAg loss and retreatment at 0, 6, 12, 18-21 mos were
5%, 10%, 20%, 29% and 0%, 23%, 25%, 27%, respectively.
Subsequent HBsAg loss was associated with lower baseline
HBsAg [HR/100 IU/L: 0.74 (0.59-0.92), p=0.008] or baseline
HBsAg<100 IU/L [HR:20.6 (5.04-84.3), p<0.001], lower HBsAg
at month 1 [HR/100 IU/L:0.76 (0.62-0.94), p=0.011], higher ALT
at month 1 [HR/10 IU/L: 1.12 (1.01-1.26), p=0.033] and higher
IP10 at month 1 [HR/10 pg/mL: 1.09 (1.01-1.19), p=0.021],
but not with HBcrAg levels. Retreatment was independently
associated with severe pretreatment fibrosis [HR:4.21 (1.45-
12.32), p=0.009] and higher HBcrAg levels [HR=1.86 (1.11-
3.11), p=0.018] or HBcrAg ≥2 log U/mL at ETV/TDF cessation
[HR=3.64 (1.23-10.75), p=0.019]. Median HBcrAg levels were
significantly higher at 1 month before retreatment compared
to all other time points (3.4 vs <2 log U/mL, p<0.001) offering
high accuracy for prediction of retreatment (AUROC: 0.852,
p<0.001). Conclusion: Of CHBe- patients stopping effective
long-term ETV/TDF therapy, >25% may achieve HBsAg loss
and <30% may require retreatment over 18 mos. HBsAg
loss is mainly associated with lower HBsAg levels at therapy
discontinuation, while the probability of retreatment is
associated with the severity of pretreatment fibrosis as well
as with serum HBcrAg levels at ETV/TDF discontinuation and
more importantly at 1 month before retreatment. |
