The control group was given entecavir, while treatment group was given Qishen Erlian Decoction combined with entecavir, 48 weeks for 1 course. Entecavir was given to both groups after treatment, and two groups were followed up for 24 weeks. The liver function, DNA-HBV, serum TGF-β1, BMP-7, liver fibrosis indexes and clinical symptom changes of the two groups were observed.Results 3 cases were excluded and 3 cases were lost during follow-up in treatment group; 6 cases were lost during follow-up in the control group. Liver function and HBV-DNA in 12, 24, 36, 48 weeks and 24 weeks in follow-up were significantly lower than those pre-treatment (P<0.01) in the treatment group, and were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.01). TGF-β1 decreased (P<0.05), BMP-7 increased (P<0.01), and the ratio of TGF-β1/BMP-7 decreased (P<0.01) in both groups after treatment. There was significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). HA, LN, PCⅢ,Ⅳ-C, and FS decreased significantly in treatment group after treatment and in the follow-up (P<0.01), fatigue, discomfort in liver region, disgust oil and anorexia were improved (P<0.05), the difference was significant compared with control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Qishen Erlian Decoction combined with entecavir can not only protect liver and reduce aminotransferase, but also be antiviral and reverse liver fibrosis.
