Efficacy of NA Combined With PEG-IFN-α2b in the Continuous Versus Pulsed Treatment of Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B
Sponsor: Anhui Medical University
Summary
Previous studies have shown that there are alterations in the number and affinity of interferon receptors during interferon therapy and that such alterations recover to varying degrees some time after the end of treatment. It can be conjectured that the rest period of pulsed therapy facilitates the recovery of type I interferon receptors and thus the next round of IFN therapy compared to a continuous regimen of interferon.
Official title: A Multicenter, Prospective Cohort Study: Efficacy of NA Combined With PEG-IFN-α2b Continuous Versus Pulsed Therapy for 96 Weeks in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B.
