Despite numerous treatment advances ... and hepatitis B s antigen (HBsAg), which is HBV’s envelope protein. In addition to the excess HBsAg present in circulating virions, large amounts of ...
Assays for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) are the most frequently used tests to detect HBV infection. Vaccination for HBV can produce transiently detectable levels of HBsAg in patients.
The primary efficacy end point was HBsAg loss at 24 weeks after the end of treatment. The researchers found that a primary end point event occurred in 7, 3, 12, 23, and 0 percent of patients in ...
Five more patients obtained virological response 24 weeks after the end of treatment. ‡Virological response in this study was defined as negative HBV DNA with normal aminotransferases and ...
At 72 weeks, IHCs in the treatment group were categorized into an HBsAg clearance group and an HBsAg persistence group. Differences in T lymphocyte subsets among these groups were compared ...
