Entecavir Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis D

Abstract

One year of entecavir treatment is ineffective in CHD. Any generalized beneficial effect of nucleoside/nucleotide analog treatment may necessitate prolonged treatment. Patients with CHD with HBV dominance, which is likely to occur in the later phases of CHD, may be a reasonable patient cohort in which to target nucleoside/nucleotide analog therapy.
