Avatar m tn This led only to a temporary HBV DNA decline which soon was followed by viral breakthrough despite the lack of known entecavir resistance mutations. Patient died after 9 months of entecavir treatment from liver failure. A total of 434 clones from 6 different serum samples were analysed retrospectively. HBV genomes bearing mutation patterns suggestive of antiviral resistance were analysed by in vitro phenotyping assay.
Avatar m tn Therefore, in this small subpopulation, response did not appear to be hampered by the presence of high-level resistance mutations at baseline, provided patients were responsive to lead-in peginterferon/ribavirin. In the 7 patients with high-level resistance mutations at baseline who were nonresponsive to interferon as defined by < 1 log10 reduction in HCV RNA during 4-week peginterferon/ribavirin lead-in therapy, SVR was not observed. By contrast, in the overall population, 27.8% to 37.
Avatar m tn htm 19 Dec Establishment of a Novel Assay for Detecting Mutations Associated with Antiviral Resistance of HBV Covalently Closed Circular DNA and Its Application posted by: Tumor Research [Abstract] This research was composed of two parts:Ⅰ. Establishment of a novel assay for detecting mutations associated with antiviral resistance of HBV covalently closed circular DNA.Ⅱ.
Avatar m tn sebvivo is not a firstline drug for hbv, we have noticed that drug makers have some way made doctors prescribe these drugs in asia (they are also prescribing clevudine) these drugs are not used because they are too weak making hbv resistance mutations, sebvivo might be considered safe if hbvdna gets und by 6 months.my opinion is it is not safe at all and have almost no meaning for hbv threapy.it has almost no effect on hbv, it just lower hbvdna which doesn t reflect any virus clearance.
Avatar m tn 5 mg and 1mg in regards to resistance. Will 0.5 mg of entecavir cause resistance in patients who never have been on any nucs and no polymerase resistance detected vs 1mg. My doctor wants me to take 1mg vs 0.5 mg but I have been been on any nucs and show no resistance to any nucs during genotype testing.
Avatar f tn i wouldn t feel very safe but etv needs 3 muations for full resistance maybe he just add 1 or 2 mutations but then suppressed hbvdna again, other explanations are changes in immune response or low immune response for a period
Avatar m tn very very important if you don't want to end up without no drugs and hbvdna in the millions, first do a resistance test that shows mutations and which drugs are active, second start etv+tdf combination to avoid any resistance in the future if you have resistance to any drug, i'd also suggest combo anyway follow our alinia thread, alinia (nitazoxanide) is active against all hbv strains without resistance or sides but it is off label since there are few clinical reports and development f
Avatar m tn NS3 mutations resistant to GS-9451 were selected in patients treated with 200 mg or 400 mg GS-9451 by day 4, indicating pre-existing resistance mutations and potent inhibition of wild-type HCV by GS-9451. Lack of cross-resistance of GS-9451 resistance mutants to tegobuvir, GS-6620, GS-5885, IFN-α, and ribavirin, supports the use of these drugs in combination with GS-9451.

Avatar m tn dont even ask, hcc high risk, get hbvdna suppressed und as soon as possible
Avatar m tn Emergence of drug resistance in HCV must be considered to be a major threat. Furthermore, many of the resistance mutations to PIs and nucleoside analogues may produce cross-resistance to other compounds within the same drug family, which may complicate rescue-treatment options. The length of persistence of HCV resistance mutations after discontinuation of treatment must be investigated.
Avatar f tn tenofovir works perfectly even if you have lam resistance but it is better to have no resistance since you might develop resistance to tenofovir as well since these are life tx at the moment check for mutation and start tenofovir immediately, do not wait any day knowing if you have mutation is important because i would definitely start a combo in this case.
789911 tn?1368636783 enhanced risk) include (i) levels of resistant virus are higher, to a clinically significant degree, after unsuccessful treatment, and (ii) resistance mutations return to baseline but compensatory mutations, which make resistant virus more fit, are at a higher level and contribute to emergence of resistance with retreatment.
Avatar m tn The scientists still believe it is due to precore/ core-promotor mutations, but believe some other mutations are also involved. I hope this type of research can provide a mire definitive explanation why natural eAg seroconversion occur and why some go on to develop HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis.
Avatar m tn the only first line drugs for hbv are: tenofovir (most potent, no resistance), entecavir (resistance very high on lamivudine users so it cannot be used if not naive to treatment), peginterferon many years of tenofovir (3-6years) and then peginterferon add on are showing 50% cure of hbv by 1 year of combo, al low hbsag less than 1000iu/ml is a good time to add on peginterferon to clear definitively in more cases
Avatar m tn precore mutations and core promoter mutations. In this case you will be e-negative but have significant, though not typically very high, viral load (this is called e-negative chronic Hep B). Many CHB patients will end up with one of the two mutations. Did you start off e-negative? That's important to know.
Avatar f tn A genotypic assay that uses reverse transcription of HCV RNA, followed by PCR amplification and DNA sequencing of the NS3 gene, can detect mutations associated with NS3 protease inhibitor resistance. Such mutations include the R155K mutation in HCV genotype 1a and the A156S mutation in HCV genotype 1b. These and other mutations result in resistance to some or all NS3 protease inhibitors.7,8 Question 4. What is the Q80K polymorphism?
