Single-point HBsAg quantification did not have enough sensitivity and specificity for differentiation of HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and inactive carrier (IC) state.A cutoff value of HBsAg level at 1000IU/mL was more reliable for diagnosis of HBeAg-negative CHB than other HBsAg cutoff...

However, among patients with HBeAg-negative disease and low HBV DNA <2000 IU/ml, an HBsAg level of ⩾1000 IU/ml had a hazard ratio of 13.7 for HCC as compared with lower HBsAg levels. Finally, co-infection with hepatitis D virus and HIV clearly increases the risk of disease progression...
Because the initial stages of infection remain asymptomatic, immu- nocompetent vaccinated subjects do not require booster doses of hepatitis B vaccine to remain protected, despite the disappearance of anti-HBsAg antibodies33. The role of T-cell responses in this pro- longed vaccine-induced ...
The diagnosis of hepatitis B involves different blood tests that detect an antigen called hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), as well as two antibodies called hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) andhepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb).7

CRV431 has shown potential in experimental models to complement current hepatitis B treatments by reducing multiple markers of infection including HBV DNA, HBsAg, HBeAg, binding of HBx, and HBV active uptake by cells. Studies have also demonstrated that CRV431 decreases the progression ...
