In a phase 3 trial, bulevirtide monotherapy led to virologic response in patients with chronic hepatitis D. Pegylated interferon (peginterferon) alfa-2a is recommended by guidelines as an off-label treatment for this disease. The role of combination therapy and peginterferon alfa-2a, particularly regard finite treatment, unclear.

HBV inactivation / clearance cccDNA integrated DNA. The nucleic acid polymer 2139 inhibits assembly/secretion hepatitis B virus (HBV) subviral particles. Previously, pegylated interferon (pegIFN) in HBV/hepatitis delta (HDV) coinfection achieved HDV RNA surface antigen (HBsAg) loss/seroconversion the 301...

Abstract Hepatitis D virus (HDV) requires hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) for its assembly and release. Current HBV treatments are only marginally effective against HDV because they fail to inhibit HBsAg production/secretion. However, monotherapy with the nucleic acid polymer REP 2139-Ca is accompanied by rapid declines in both RNA. We used mathematical modeling estimate HDV-HBsAg-host parameters elucidate mode of action efficacy 12 treatment-naive HBV/HDV co-infected patients. The model...

Nucleic acid polymers block the assembly of hepatitis B virus (HBV) subviral particles, effectively preventing surface antigen (HBsAg) replenishment in circulation. polymer (NAP)-based combination therapy HBV infection or HBV/hepatitis D (HDV) co-infection is accompanied by HBsAg clearance and seroconversion, HDV-RNA co-infection, persistent functional cure (HBsAg < 0.05 IU/ml, HBV-DNA target not dected, normal alanine aminotransferase) HDV RNA. An analysis isoform changes during...

Analyzing the interplay among serum HBV DNA, HBsAg, anti-HBs, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) during nucleic-acid polymer (NAP)-based therapy for chronic hepatitis B provides a unique opportunity to identify kinetic patterns associated with functional cure.All participants HBeAg-negative infection in REP 401 study (NCT02565719) first received 24 weeks of tenofovir-disoproxil-fumarate (TDF) monotherapy. The early triple group (n = 20) next 48 TDF+pegylated interferon-α2a (pegIFN)+NAPs. In...

Therapy with nucleic acid polymers (NAPs), tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), and pegylated interferon (pegIFN) achieve high rates of HBsAg loss/seroconversion functional cure in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. The role surface antigen (HBsAg) seroconversion inactivation covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) establishing were examined. Archived serum from the REP 401 study was analyzed using Abbott ARCHITECT NEXT assay (Chicago, IL), research use–only assays for immune...

Results Acute HDV in both sexes has been observed: women – 7 (26.9%), men 19 (73.1%). Hepatitis D virus infection occurred through: surgical maneuvers 2 patients (7.7%), dental 5(19.2%), sexual 3 (11.5%) intrafamilial and undetermined way 14 (53.9%). The acute onset was 26 (100%), being manifested more frequently icteric form 21 (80.8%), than anicteric 5 (19.2%). In 12 (46.2%), occurs moderate (53.8%) severe form. includes asthenic, dyspeptic arthralgic syndrome. Biochemical investigations:...

Background Hepatitis B viral represents a pathology with severe impact on public health. Worldwide, approximately 350 million individuals are chronically infected hepatitis virus (HBV). HBV is the leading cause of cirrhosis globally. Once chronic infection established, 30% patients will develop cirrhosis, and one-quarter decompensated liver disease within 5 years. Cirrhosis also substantially increases risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
