Summary

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and chronic viral hepatitis due to hepatitis B virus (HBV) are both major public health problems. Treatment of chronic HBV infection in CKD patients, however, is not well defined because of insufficient data from clinical trials. Telbivudine is a new antiviral that provides effective and sustained viral suppression in patients with compensated chronic hepatitis B infection. Unlike other nucleotide and nucleoside analogues, renal toxicity is uncommon in telbivudine, and dosage adjustment is not required in patients with mild renal impairment. We propose to conduct an open-label single-arm study to evaluate the effect of telbivudine on renal function and proteinuria in patients with chronic HBV infection and mild-to-moderate renal impairment. Twenty patients with chronic HBV infection and chronic kidney disease (estimated glomerular filtration rate 15 to 60 ml/min) will be recruited. They will be treated with telbivudine, with the dosage adjusted according to thei renal function, for 5 years. Serum HBV DNA, proteinuria, renal function, and urinary inflammatory markers will be monitored.
