5. Study Description
Brief Summary
In this study we will prospectively stop NA in both Caucasian and non-Caucasian patients matched for gender and age, to validate the observed host and viral parameters for future roll-out of this treatment strategy.
Detailed Description
An estimated 290 million people worldwide are chronically infected with the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). One fourth of untreated patients develop progressive liver damage and are at risk of liver-related death, which can be prevented by treatment with Nucleos(t)ide Analogues (NA). These drugs efficiently suppress viral replication, but seroclearance of the virus, defined as loss of Hepatitis B surface Antigen (HBsAg), is predicted to require an average of 36 to 52 years of treatment. Cessation of NA after long-term viral suppression in patients without HBV seroclearance might reduce costs and may even increase the chance of subsequent HBsAg loss. We have recently shown in a retrospective multicentric international study, that Caucasian ethnicity and off-treatment viral control are associated with HBsAg loss after NA cessation. In this study we will prospectively stop NA in both Caucasian and non-Caucasian patients matched for gender and age, to validate the observed host and viral parameters for future roll-out of this treatment strategy.
