Abstract The early emergence of lamivudine (3TC)-resistant tyrosine-methionine-aspartate-aspartate (YMDD) mutants has been reported during 3TC therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-endemic areas; however, its clinical impact during long-term 3TC therapy is unknown. This study was performed to investigate the impact of the early emergence of YMDD mutants 3 months after the initiation of treatment on the outcomes of long-term 3TC therapy in HBV e antigen (HBeAg)-positive CHB. We analysed YMDD genotypes in consecutive samples from 30 patients with HBeAg positive CHB throughout 3TC treatment using both restriction fragment length polymorphism and mass spectrometric assays. Long-term outcome was compared between patients who had YMDD mutations detected at 3 months and those who had no mutations. YMDD mutation was detected in 16 (53.3%) out of 30 patients at 3 months and only the rtM2041 mutation was found. Cumulative HBeAg loss rates at 3 years was 12.5% and 57.4% in patients who had the rtM2041 mutant and wild-type virus at 3 months, respectively (P=0.010). Cumulative viral breakthrough rates at 3 years was 75.0% and 14.3% in patients who had the rtM204I mutant and wild-type virus at 3 months, respectively (P=0.002). Logistic regression revealed that YMDD mutation at 3 months was significantly related to viral breakthrough within 24 months (P=0.003). In conclusion, early detection for HBV YMDD mutation at 3 months may be useful to predict the long-term outcomes of 3TC therapy in patients with HBeAg-positive CHB in HBV-endemic areas.

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.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
