Review HBV HBsAg + =infected HBsAb >10 =immune HBeAg + = highly infective HBeAb useless HBcAb + = past exposure HBV DNA VL = the higher VL the more infective geq/ mL ~ IU/mL, conversion 3 to 5
Existing Guidance HBV New HBsAg -, cleared HBsAg + ↓ HBeAg +, can’t do EPP HBeAg – HBV DNA VL <103 geq 103 and 105 >105
Existing Guidance HBV New HBV DNA VL ↓ <103 geq 103 and 105 >105 ↓ ↓ ↓ Cleared Annual HBV DNA VL, 2 samples by the ref labs Antiviral treatment VL <103 Cleared Quarterly HBV DNA VL 1 sample by the ref labs Can’t do EPP
Existing Guidance HBV New HBsAg -, cleared HBsAg + ↓ HBeAg +, can’t do EPP HBeAg – HBV DNA VL <103 geq 103 and 105 >105 HBsAg -, cleared HBsAg + ↓ HBeAg, role? HBV DNA VL <103 geq (200 IU) >103
