Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of entecavir treatment in chronic hepatitis B virus ( HBV ) infected patients with mild hepatic dysfunction and marked pathological injury.Methods One hundred and fifty five chronic hepatitis B ( CHB) patients with HBV DNA>1.0 ×104 U/mL admitted in Lishui People’ s Hospital during January 2008 to October 2011 were enrolled in the study.Patients were divided into three groups: those with serum ALT <2 ×ULN and liver inflammation injury ≥G2 and/or fibrosis stage≥S2 were in observation group ( n=75 ); patients with ALT ( 2-5 ) ×ULN were in control group 1 (n=38);patients with ALT>5 ×ULN were in control group 2 (n=42).All patients were given entecavir (0.5 mg, 1/d, p.o) treatment.ALT normalization rates, HBV DNA negative rates, HBeAg negative conversion rates and seroconversion rates at 12-, 24-,48-, 96-and 144-week were observed and compared among groups.Variance analysis andχ2 test were performed for measurement data and numeration data, respectively.Results ALT normalization rates in observation group were 86.7%, 90.7%, 90.7%, 92.0%and 96.0%at 12-, 24-, 48-, 96-and 144-week, which were higher than those in control group 1 (χ2 =2.04, 2.15, 2.78, 2.69 and 2.47, P <0.01), but no statistically significant difference was observed between observation group and control group 2 (χ2 =2.53,2.42,2.09,2.24 and 2.32,P>0.05) . HBV DNA negative rates in observation group were 70.7%, 78.7%and 82.7%at 12-, 24-and 48-week, which were higher than those in control group 1 (χ2 =4.56, 4.23 and 4.28, P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference was observed between observation group and control group 2 (χ2 =2.75, 2.62 and 2.98, P>0.05).HBeAg negative conversion rates in observation group were 6.6%, 21.3%and 25.3%at 48-, 96-, and 144-week, which were higher than those in control group 1 (χ2 =4.68, 4.78 and 5.01, P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference was observed between observation group and control group 2 (χ2 =2.24, 2.57 and 2.13, P>0.05).HBeAg seroconversion rate in observation group was 4.0%at 24-week, which were higher than that in control group 1 (χ2 =2.87, P <0.05), but the seroconversion rates at 96-and 144-week were lower than those in control group 2 (χ2 =2.92 and 3.14, P<0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of entecavir treatment for HBV infected patients with mild hepatic dysfunction and marked pathological injury is satisfactory.
