Excerpt

The treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients has evolved dramatically over the past two decades. Currently, oral nucleos(t)ide analogues (NA) with potent viral suppression and a high genetic barrier to resistance, i.e., entecavir, tenofovir disoproxil and tenofovir alafenamide, are recommended as first-line antivirals. Long-term NA treatment can suppress hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication, reverse liver fibrosis, and reduce the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) [1]. …
