Abstract:
Although current direct anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) drugs have good effects in controlling viral replication and limiting the progression to liver cirrhosis, there is still a long way to go in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Immune tolerance and immune dysfunction may be the two most important immunopathogenic factors. With reference to the development of new strategies and new drugs for anti-HBV immunotherapy and the latest research findings around the world, this article reviews the research advances in immunotherapy for CHB in recent years.
