5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To investigate the efficacy of using antiviral therapy in third trimester of pregnancy to reduce mother-to-infant HBV transmission, and to access the safety of such treatment for mothers and infants.
Detailed Description
This is a multi-centered study conducted in 12-16 collaborative hospitals in Taiwan, using tenofovir as antiviral therapy to reduce mother-to-infant transmission. The study group recruited pregnant women at 2nd to 3rd trimester receive tenofovir disoproxil fumurate (TDF) 2011-2018, June, and receive tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) 2018-2021. Control group did not receive antiviral treatment. Both group receive mother and infant follow-up up to 12 months after delivery.
