Abstract BACKGROUND: With the exception of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level, baseline factors predictive of therapeutic response to lamivudine in patients with hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) remain unknown. We thus studied the influence of pre-therapy viral factors on end-of-treatment responses to lamivudine. METHODS: A total of 116 treatment-naive HBeAg-positive CHB patients who had pre-therapy ALT level >5x the upper limit of normal (ULN) and received lamivudine for 12-18 months were enrolled. HBeAg seroclearance and combined HBeAg seroclearance, ALT normalization and undetectable hepatitis B virus DNA at the end of therapy were defined as primary and secondary endpoints, respectively. Pre-therapy viral factors including viral load, genotype, precore (PC) stop codon status, basal core promoter status and pre-S deletion were determined to correlate with therapeutic endpoints. RESULTS: The frequency of patients with detectable PC stop codon mutation (G1896A), basal core promoter mutation (A1762T/G1764A) and pre-S deletion at baseline was 22.4%, 21.6% and 12.1%, respectively. After the end of 12-18 months of lamivudine therapy, the overall HBeAg seroclearance rate was 56.0%. Patients with HBeAg seroclearance had a higher prevalence of baseline PC stop codon mutation than those without (30.8% versus 11.8%; P=0.015). By using multivariate analyses, the odds ratio of patients with the PC stop codon mutation to develop HBeAg seroclearance was 3.33 (P=0.024). The presence of the PC stop codon mutation also correlated with the combined response. CONCLUSIONS: For lamivudine-treated HBeAg-positive CHB patients with pre-therapy ALT levels >5xULN, the PC stop codon mutation could predict a higher HBeAg seroclearance rate at the end of 12-18 months of therapy.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
