ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of peginterferon alpha (PEG-IFNα) initially combined with lamivudine (LAM) or adefovir (ADV) in treatment of HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. MethodsWe electronically searched databases including The Cochrane Library (Issue 11, 2014), PubMed, CBM, CNKI, VIP, and WanFang Data from inception to December 2014, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about PEG-IFNα initially combined with LAM or ADV for HBeAg-positive CHB. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 11 RCTs involving 2031 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: After 48 weeks of treatment, the HBsAg seroconversion rate of the PEG-IFNα plus ADV group was significantly higher than that of the PEG-IFNα monotherapy group (8.6% vs. 0%, OR=7.73, 95%CI 1.53 to 39.05, P=0.01) or the ADV monotherapy group (8.5% vs. 0%, OR=7.75, 95%CI 1.07 to 56.23, P=0.04); and the HBsAg seroclearance rate in the combination therapy group was significantly higher than that of the ADV monotherapy group (10.5% vs. 1.2%, OR=5.56, 95%CI to 2.14 to 14.47, P=0.0004). After 52 weeks of treatment, the HBsAg seroconversion rate of the PEG-IFNα plus LAM group was significantly higher than that of the PEG-IFNα monotherapy group (11.6% vs. 5.6%, OR=2.21, 95%CI 1.04 to 4.72, P=0.04). After 26 weeks of follow-up, no significant differences were found between the combination therapy group and the PEG-IFNα monotherapy group in HBsAg seroclearance rate and HBsAg seroconversion rate (all P values >0.05). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that, compared with PEG-IFNα, LAM, or ADV monotherapy, PEG-IFNα plus LAM or ADV could improve the HBsAg seroclearance or seroconversion rate after 48-52 weeks of treatment for HBeAg-positive CHB, but this effect is still limited. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of adefovir monotherapy (ADF) versus adefovir-Matrine combination therapy (ADF+M) for chronic hepatitis B. Methods Such databases as The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, PubMed, CBM, CNKI, WanFang and VIP Database were searched from the date of their establishment to July 2010, and the references of all included studies were also traced so as to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of ADF versus ADF+M. Quality assessment and data extraction were conducted in accordance with the Cochrane Handbook 5.0.2 by two reviewers independently. Meta-analyses were conducted by using RevMan 5.0 software. Results A total of 24 RCTs involving 2 092 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that at the end of the treatment for both six months and 12 months, respectively, the ADF+M group was superior to ADF group with a significant difference in both the HBeAg seroconversion rate as the primary outcome (six months: RR=2.05, 95%CI 1.53 to 2.74; 12 months: RR=2.13 95%CI 1.74 to 2.60) and the secondary outcome such as HBV-DNA negative conversion, HBeAg negative conversion, ALT normalization, HBV-DNA variation, complete response and HBsAg negative conversion, etc. Conclusion As the current evidence shows, ADF+M therapy is superior to ADF therapy for chronic hepatitis B. The significant difference can even be observed at the end of the treatment for six months. However, the results should be interpreted with caution because of the low quality of the included studies. High-quality, large-scale RCTs are needed to further prove the results.

目的 评估替比夫定与阿德福韦酯联合治疗优化阿德福韦酯单药治疗应答不佳的阳性慢性乙型肝炎患者的疗效。 方法 选择2008年6月－2009年8月间共26例阿德福韦酯治疗至少12个月且病毒学应答不佳的乙型肝炎病毒e抗原（HBeAg），阳性的慢性乙型肝炎患者，在10 mg阿德福韦酯治疗的基础上，加用600 mg替比夫定。肝功能和乙型肝炎病毒（HBV） DNA每3个月评估1次，乙型肝炎两对半和腹部B型超声每半年评估1次。 结果 在第1年的治疗期间，所有患者血清HBV DNA水平均呈进行性下降，其中24例（92.3%）血清HBV DNA水平在联合治疗12个月时低于检测值下限，有25例（96.2%）患者丙氨酸转氨酶水平复常。治疗6个月时，分别有7例（26.9%）和2例（7.7%）患者发生HBeAg消失和血清学转换；治疗12个月时，分别有11例（42.3%）和8例（30.8%）患者发生HBeAg消失和血清学转换。整个治疗期间，26例患者均未出现病毒学突破。 结论 阿德福韦酯单药治疗应答不佳时，加用替比夫定可有效控制病毒，使患者获得较好的病毒学、生化学和免疫学应答。Objective To evaluate the curative efficacy of telbivudine combined with defovir dipivoxil on positive-HBeAg chronic hepatitis B patients with suboptimal response to adefovir dipivoxil. Methods A total of 26 HBeAg-positive patients with suboptimal response to adefovir dipivoxil (treated with adefovir dipivoxil for more than 12 months) were treated with adefovir dipivoxil 10 mg in addition to telbivudine 600 mg between June 2008 and August 2009. Liver function and serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA tests were assessed at the baseline and 3-month intervals, whereas HBV serological markers and abdominal ultrasonography were carried out every 6 months. Results During the first year of treatment, all patients showed a progressive decline of serum HBV DNA levels; while undetectable serum HBV DNA and normalization of alanine aminotransferase was achieved in 24(92.3%) and 25 (96.2%) patients, respectively, at the end of the first year of treatment. The 6- and 12-month cumulative rates of HBeAg loss were 26.9% (7/26) and 42.3% (11/26), respectively; and corresponding cumulative rates of HBeAg/anti-HBe seroconversion were 7.7% (2/26) and 30.8 (8/26), respectively. During the observation period, no virological breakthrough was detected. Conclusion Telbivudine combined with defovir dipivoxil may be a good choice for patients with suboptimal response to adefovir dipivoxil, which could induce effective viral inhibition and help patients obtain more virological, biochemical and immunological responses.

Methods : Outatients from our hospital between June, 2006 and August, 2007, who received lamivudine 100 mg and adefovir dipivoxil 10 mg per day were screened. And the level of ALT, HBV DNA, and urea nitrogen, as well as the statue of HBsAg and antiHBs were detected at week 12, 24, and 48 Results : The undetectable rates of HBV DNA were 17%, 43%, and 87% at week 12, 24, and 48 respectively, and the difference in response rate were statistic significantly (Plt;005). The ALT normalization rate were 13%, 67%, and 100% at week 12, 24, and 48 respectively, and the difference in response rate were statistic significantly (Plt;005); During the course of antiviral therapy, the loss of HBsAg was not observed and all patients were well tolerated. Conclusion : The combination of lamivudine and adefovir dipivoxil were effective for HBeAgnegative CHB patients, and this treatment strategy provided us a new option in clinical antiviral practice.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of telbivudine (TEV) combined with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) for chronic hepatitis B (CHB), so as to provide references for clinical practice and research. MethodsWe electronically searched databases including The Cochrane Library (Issue 7, 2013), PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, CBM, CNKI, VIP, and WanFang Data from inception to August 21st, 2013, for the relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Other sources were also retrieved. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed the quality of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. ResultsA Total of 11 RCTs involving 1 010 patients were included. The trial group were given TEV combined with ADV, while the control group were given TEV alone or ADV alone. The results of metaanalysis showed that, the combined use was superior to TEV alone or ADV alone in improving HBV-DNA negative rates at 12-, 24-, 48-weeks, HBeAg negative rates at 12-, 24-, 48-weeks, and ALT recovery rates at 12-, 24-weeks (P < 0.05). The results of qualitative analysis showed that, the trial group had a lower drug resistance rate, and both were alike in the incidence of adverse reaction. ConclusionCompared with TEV alone or ADV alone, TEV combined with ADV could improve the clinical efficacy of treating CHB which is also fairly safe. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the aforementioned conclusion still needs to be further verified by conducting more large-scale and high quality RCTs.
ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of lamividine (LAM) combined with adefovir (ADV) versus entecavir (ETV) for lamivudine-resistant (LAM-R) hepatitis B in renal transplant recipients. MethodOutpatients and inpatients of lamivudine-resistant kidney graft recipients with chronic hepatitis B admitted to West China Hospital and the People's Hospital of Santai County during Jan 2007 to Mar 2012 were divided into A group (LAM+ADV) and B group (ETV). And the level of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), level of serum creatinine, HBV serological markers and HBV-DNA load were compared by SPSS 16.0 software. ResultsA total of 15 patients were included. The mean age was 36.7±6.6 years old, the majority of patients were male. After treatment for 4 weeks, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 96 weeks, no significant differences were found between two groups in liver function normalization rates, the HBV-DNA negative conversion rates and serum creatinine level. ConclusionsLAM add-on ADV combination therapy and ETV monotherapy were both safe and effective in LAM-R kidney transplants with CHB, but the load of HBV-DNA in some patients were still positive at the endpoint. Elevated serum creatinine level may occur in some patients who treated with ADV. Consequently, for HBsAg-positive kidney transplantation patients, those anti-HBV drugs that are more effective, safer and less resistant may be better in the beginning of treatment.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of lamivudine (LAM) plus adefovir (ADV) versus entecavir (ETV) monotherapy for LAM-resistant chronic hepatitis B patients. MethodsWe electronically searched databases including PubMed, The Cochrane Library (Issue 12, 2013), CBM, CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data from their inception to December 2013, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or cohort studies of LAM+ADV versus ETV for LAM-resistant chronic hepatitis B. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and assessed the methodological quality of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 13 RCTs and 5 cohort studies involving 1 336 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses of RCTs showed that:there were no significant differences between the LAM+ADV group and the ETV group in the negative rates of serum HBV-DNA (RR=1.00, 95%CI 0.91 to 1.10, P=0.94), HBeAg (RR=0.90, 95%CI 0.70 to 1.17, P=0.43), serum ALT recovery rate (RR=0.97, 95%CI 0.90 to 1.05, P=0.45) and serum HBeAg conversion rate (RR=0.71, 95%CI 0.40 to 1.24, P=0.22) at the 48th week. The results of meta-analyses of cohort studies showed that:there were no significant differences between the two groups in the negative rates of serum HBV-DNA (RR=1.37, 95% CI 0.91 to 2.06, P=0.13) and serum ALT recovery rate (RR=0.99, 95%CI 0.87 to 1.12, P=0.87), but the ETV group had higher serum HBeAg conversion rate (RR=0.24, 95% CI 0.07 to 0.79, P=0.02). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the efficacy of LAM+ADV is similar to ETV at the 48th week for LAM-resistant chronic hepatitis B patients. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
