Background: Retrospective appraisal of the timing of
retreatment in patients with different types of hepatitis flare
reflecting effective or ineffective endogenous immune
response However, the long-term outcomes of patients with
different immune response (effective or ineffective immune
clearance) with and without retreatment remain unknown
This study aims to clarify the impact of retreatment in effective
and ineffective flare patients comparing to the outcome in the
untreated patients Methods: A nested case-control study
was conducted in 336 retreated and 105 un-retreated HBeAgnegative
patients with off-therapy hepatitis flare. HBsAg was
quantified before and during flare, at ALT peak or retreatment
start, month 6 and 12. Hepatitis flare with increasing HBsAg
prior to retreatment or ALT peak was classified as “virus dominating
flare” whereas flare with decreasing HBsAg
as “host-dominating flare”. Results: Of the retreated
patients, 85.7% showed virus-dominating flare and 14.3%
host-dominating flare. Patients with virus-dominating flare
showed greater HBsAg decline (-1 0 vs -0 01 log10IU/mL,
P<0 0001) with more frequent rapid decline (69 8 vs 8 3%;
P<0000) by month 12 and 3-year incidence of achieving
HBsAg <100 IU/mL (33 vs 13%, P=0 039) during entecavir or
tenofovir retreatment Notably, one-third of patients with hostdominating
flare showed on-retreatment HBsAg rebound over
pre-retreatment level (vs 1 4%; P<0 0001) Compared with
un-retreated controls, 1-year HBsAg decline was greater (-1 0
vs -0 47 log10IU/mL; P<0 0001) and faster (69 8 vs 42 5%;
P<0.0001) in retreated patients with virus-dominating flare.
Conversely, 1-year HBsAg decline (-0 01 vs -0 16 log10IU/mL)
and 3-year HBsAg loss rate (0 vs 21%; P=0 009) were lower
in retreated than un-retreated patients with host-dominating
flare. Conclusion: Oral anti-HBV retreatment is effective in
patients with virus-dominating flare but ineffective or even
worsen in patients with host-dominating flare. These results
validate the concept using combined HBsAg/ALT kinetic for
decision to retreat patients with virus-dominating flare and
to hold retreatment and watch carefully in patients with hostdominating
flare.
