Summary

Antiviral therapy is the most important method to slow and stop the progress of the disease in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Nucleoside (acid) analogues (NA) can Effectively suppress HBV replication, but it should be continue used and relapse would happen in most patients after withdrawal of therapy. However, long-term use of NA could induce viral resistance mutation lead to loss of efficacy. Interferon treatment can enhance specific and non-specific immune function in chronic hepatitis B patients, make patients get immune control to HBV infection and obtain sustained response after treatment. Thus the CHB patients on the treatment of NA should be stop NA treatment after interferon treatment. In this study, the effects of interferon treatment in CHB patients who were on the NA treatment and obtained HBsAg level≤250 IU/ml.
