Dynamic Changes of Serum HBV RNA in Chronic Hepatitis B Patients

Some patients with low-level viremia (LLV) are also likely to develop hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or other liver diseases. The relationship between HBV RNA levels and fibrosis in patients with HBV DNA negative or LLV is still lacking evidence. The purpose of this study is to observe the differences in HBV RNA levels and their association with efficacy in HBV DNA negative or LLV patients. Investigators conduct the prospective, single-center, non-randomized, observational clinical study. A total of 100 chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients who receive antiviral therapy with nucleoside (acid) analogues for 1-3 years will be enrolled. The enrolled patients will be followed up five times to collect clinical data and record adverse events (at baseline, week 12, week 24, week 36 and week 48, respectively).
