Abstract
BACKGROUND:
A unique chronic hepatitis B patient was followed over 189 months of nucleoside/nucleotide analogue (NAs) therapies with the analysis of multiple drug-resistance HBV mutants.
METHODS:
Clonal sequencing (≥ 20 clones/sample) was performed on sera sampled at 41 time-points, and the phenotypic features of eight representative mutants were analyzed.
RESULTS:
Lamivudine (LAM)-, adefovir dipivoxil (ADV)-, entecavir (ETV)-, and repeat ADV-resistance mutants emerged upon individual sequential NA monotherapy. The efficacy of NA combination rescue therapies ranked as LAM+ADV < ETV+ADV < ETV+tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). Specifically, LAM+ADV and ETV+ADV suppressed viral loads to < 100 IU/mL for a long period of time, either with or without late stage HBV DNA fluctuations. Furthermore, ETV+TDF suppressed the viral load to < 10 IU/mL. During the LAM+ADV and ETV+ADV combination therapies, ETV-resistance mutants dominated at most time-points, and MDR mutants that harbored LAM-, ETV- and ADV-resistance mutations were intermittently detected. Interestingly, the rtA181T-causative sW172stop to sW172non-stop mutation transition was observed at HBV DNA fluctuations. In a phenotypic analysis, two MDR strains had cross-resistance to LAM, ETV, and ADV, and a lower susceptibility to TDF (< 10-fold decrease compared to the wild-type strain). In contrast, the natural replication capacity was inversely associated with the number of primary resistant mutations which would limit MDR mutant development.
CONCLUSIONS:
Taken together, viral drug susceptibility, replication capacity, and perhaps immunological adaptation may play coordinated roles in the fitness of drug-resistance mutants. ETV+TDF therapy is the preferred option for treating chronic hepatitis B patients with multiple drug failure.
