AIM:To evaluate the treatment outcomes of clevudine compared with entecavir in antiviral-naive patients with chronic hepatitis B(CHB).METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of CHB patients treated with clevudine 30 mg/d and compared their clinical outcomes with patients treated with entecavir 0.5 mg/d.The biochemical response,as assessed by serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT) activity,virologic response,as assessed by serum hepatitis B virus DNA(HBV DNA) titer,serologic response,as assessed by hepatitis B e antigen(HBeAg) status,and virologic breakthrough with genotypic mutations were assessed.RESULTS:Two-hundred and fifty-four patients [clevudine(n = 118) vs entecavir(n = 136)] were enrolled.In clevudine-treated patients,the cumulative rates of serum ALT normalization were 83.9% at week 48 and 91.5% at week 96(80.9% and 91.2% in the entecavir group,respectively),the mean titer changes in serum HBV DNA were-6.03 and-6.55 log 10 copies/mL(-6.35 and-6.86 log 10 copies/mL,respectively,in the entecavir group),and the cumulative non-detection rates of serum HBV DNA were 72.6% and 83.1%(74.4% and 83.8%,respectively,in the entecavir group).These results were similar to those of entecavir-treated patients.The cumulative rates of HBeAg seroconversion were 21.8% at week 48 and 25.0% at week 96 in patients treated with clevudine,which was similar to patients treated with entecavir(22.8% and 27.7%,respectively).The virologic breakthrough in the clevudine group occurred in 9(7.6%) patients at weeks 48 and 15(12.7%) patients at week 96,which primarily corresponded to genotypic mutations of rtM204I and/or rtL180M.There was no virologic breakthrough in the entecavir group.CONCLUSION:In antiviral-naive CHB patients,longterm treatment outcomes of clevudine were not inferior to those of entecavir,except for virologic breakthrough.
AIM: To evaluate the treatment outcomes of clevudine compared with entecavir in antiviral-naive patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of CHB patients treated with clevudine 30 mg / d and compared their clinical outcomes with patients treated with entecavir 0.5 mg / d. The biochemical response, as assessed by serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, virologic response, as assessed by serum hepatitis B virus DNA (HBV DNA) titer, serologic response, as assessed by hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) status, and virologic breakthrough with genotypic mutations were assessed .RESULTS: Two-hundred and fifty-four patients [clevudine (n = 118) vs entecavir (n = 136)] were enrolled.In clevudine-treated patients, the cumulative Rates of serum ALT normalization were 83.9% at week 48 and 91.5% at week 96 (80.9% and 91.2% in the entecavir group, respectively), the mean titer changes in serum HBV DNA were-6.03 and-6.55 log 10 copies / mL (-6.35 and-6.86 log 10 copies / mL, r espectively, in the entecavir group), and the cumulative non-detection rates of serum HBV DNA were 72.6% and 83.1% (74.4% and 83.8% respectively, respectively in the entecavir group). These results were similar to those of entecavir-treated patients. The cumulative rates of HBeAg seroconversion were 21.8% at week 48 and 25.0% at week 96 in patients treated with clevudine, which was similar to patients treated with entecavir (22.8% and 27.7%, respectively). The virologic breakthrough in the clevudine groups occurred in 9 (7.6%) patients at weeks 48 and 15 (12.7%) patients at week 96, which were contracted to genotypic mutations of rtM204I and / or rtL180M.There was no virologic breakthrough in the entecavir group .CONCLUSION: In antiviral -naive CHB patients, longterm treatment outcomes of clevudine were not inferior to those of entecavir, except for virologic breakthrough.
