Abstract BACKGROUND: Lamivudine (3TC)-resistant chronic hepatitis B patients demonstrated a higher rate of adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) resistance compared with nucleoside-naive patients. This study describes ADV mutation patterns in 3TC-resistant patients treated with ADV+3TC or ADV monotherapy, investigating whether mutations selected during 3TC therapy predispose to ADV resistance. Risk factors for ADV resistance were also evaluated. METHODS: A total of 60 3TC-experienced patients were treated with (or switched to) ADV monotherapy (30 patients) or ADV+3TC combination therapy (30 patients), and followed for at least 12 months. In all patients the hepatitis B virus reverse transcriptase (RT) region was amplified and directly sequenced before initiating ADV. The RT sequence was reevaluated for virological breakthrough patients and phenotypic analysis was performed for several patients. RESULTS: In total, 14 (23%) patients showed virological breakthrough (10/30 on ADV monotherapy and 4/30 on ADV+3TC). ADV resistance mutations (rtA181V/T and rtN236T) were detected alone or in combination for 11/14 patients, whereas novel substitutions were present in 3 patients. Before ADV treatment, apart from 3TC resistance signature mutations, additional changes were found, including the rtA181T mutation, which was already present in 2/14 ADV-resistant patients. CONCLUSIONS: Although most patients showed virological breakthrough because of the well known rtA181V/T and rtN236T substitutions, more complex patterns were also found. ADV monotherapy, dose reduction and suboptimal virological response after 48 weeks of therapy were significantly associated with ADV resistance.

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.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
  • Clinical Information: The study is a clinical or epidemiological study and provides basic information about the population.
  • Treatment: The study mentioned a certain treatment method, such as drug resistance caused by mutations. If the study does not specifically indicate the relationship between mutations and their correspondence treatment, the main treatment studied in the article is marked.
