Abstract:
Nucleos( t) ide analogs and interferon are currently the main drugs for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B; they can induce sustained virologic suppression of HBV DNA , but still can’t clear HBsAg effectively.With the further understanding of the biology and life cycle of HBV and the breakthrough of direct antiviral agent for HCV treatment , multiple new drugs aiming at "cure HBV"and clear HBsAg are undergoing preclinical development and /or clinical trials.This article reviews the latest advances in drug therapy of chronic hepatitis B infection.
