Combination therapy with lamivudine and famciclovir for chronic hepatitis B infection  Hong Shen, Mazen Alsatie, George Eckert, Naga Chalasani, Lawrence Lumeng, Paul Y. Kwo  Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology  Volume 2, Issue 4, Pages 330-336 (April 2004) DOI: 10.1016/S1542-3565(04)00063-1

Figure 1 Distribution of patients in group 1 who received long-term treatment with combination therapy. Despite the development of YMDD mutations by sequencing after an average of 2 years of combination therapy in 3 naive HBeAg subjects, none of them had detectable HBV DNA by Digene assay at 3 years and 3 months of combination therapy (15 months after sample collection for sequencing). Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2004 2, 330-336DOI: (10.1016/S1542-3565(04)00063-1)

Figure 2 ALT levels are shown for 13 treatment-naive HBeAg-positive subjects during 48 weeks of therapy with lamivudine and famciclovir. A significant improvement in ALT was seen by week 24 that persisted to week 48. Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2004 2, 330-336DOI: (10.1016/S1542-3565(04)00063-1)
