A cost utility and cost effectiveness analysis of different oral antiviral medications in patients with HBeAg-Negative chronic hepatitis B in Iran: an economic microsimulation decision model [PDF]
Background: Although hepatitis B infection is the major cause of chronic liver disease in Iran, no studies have employed economic evaluations of the medications used to treat Iranian patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).

We report a case series of three HBeAg positive and five HBeAg negative patients (7 males, mean age 50.6 +/- 14.6 years) with chronic HBV infection experiencing seroconversion after treatment with entecavir (0.5 mg/day or 1 mg/day), initiated in 2007. Overall, the mean time to HBsAg clearance was 9.4 +/- 4.5 months.

[HBV-specific CD8+ T cells for sustained HBeAg seroconversion after lamivudine therapy].
Viral suppression of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) can be induced by lamivudine, but the relapse seen in many patients after cessation of lamivudine therapy is troublesome. We thought that the host immune response is important to prevent viral relapse.
