Integrated Multi-Omics Analysis of Treatment-Naive Patients With Chronic HBV Infection (HBV-MultiOmics)

2026. november 8. frissítette: Minghui Li, Beijing Municipal Administration of Hospitals

Cross-Sectional Integrated Multi-Omics Study of Treatment-Naive Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection

This is a single-center, cross-sectional, observational study involving approximately 1,000 treatment-naive patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection at Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University.

The study aims to investigate the relationship between HBV genetic characteristics, host molecular profiles, and clinical features of chronic HBV infection. Clinical and laboratory information, including liver function tests, HBV DNA levels, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) levels, and liver fibrosis assessments, will be collected from eligible participants.

Existing clinical data and stored serum samples will be used when authorized and approved by the Ethics Committee. Newly enrolled participants will contribute residual serum samples obtained after routine clinical testing. No additional blood collection or experimental treatment will be required for this study.

HBV whole-genome sequencing data will be analyzed to characterize viral genotypes, mutations, and viral diversity. In approximately 300 selected participants, serum metabolomics, quantitative proteomics, and immune-related factors will also be examined.

By integrating viral, metabolic, protein, immune, and clinical data, this study aims to identify molecular features and potential biomarkers associated with liver inflammation, early liver fibrosis, viral replication, and HBsAg expression. The findings may help improve understanding of differences among patients with chronic HBV infection and provide a basis for future research on risk assessment and disease management.

Study Design This is a single-center, prospective, cross-sectional, observational, and non-interventional study conducted at Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University. Approximately 1,000 treatment-naive patients with chronic HBV infection will be included, consisting of approximately 400 eligible existing cases and 600 prospectively enrolled participants.

Study Population Eligible participants will have persistent hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positivity for more than six months and a diagnosis of chronic HBV infection. Participants must not have received nucleos(t)ide analogues, interferon, or other specified treatments that may significantly affect the study-related indicators before the observation time point.

Patients with other viral hepatitis infections, autoimmune liver disease, alcoholic liver disease, advanced cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma will be excluded.

Data and Sample Collection Demographic characteristics, clinical history, liver biochemical parameters, liver fibrosis assessment results, and HBV-related virological indicators will be collected from medical records and study databases.

Existing clinical data and stored serum samples will be used only after verification of their original consent and authorization for secondary use, subject to ethics approval. For prospectively enrolled participants, residual serum samples from routine clinical testing will be collected. No additional research-related blood collection will be performed, and routine clinical management will not be altered.

Multi-Omics Analysis HBV whole-genome sequencing data will be used to characterize viral genotypes, subtypes, mutations, and quasispecies diversity. Existing authorized sequencing data will be prioritized, with supplementary sequencing performed when necessary.

Approximately 300 representative participants will be selected according to HBV genotype, HBeAg status, ALT levels, and liver fibrosis status for host multi-omics analyses, including:

Untargeted serum metabolomics using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS).
Quantitative proteomics using tandem mass tag (TMT)-based technology.
Multiplex immune factor analysis to measure inflammatory, anti-inflammatory, and chemokine-related molecules.

Statistical Analysis Statistical analyses will be performed using R software. Group comparisons, correlation analyses, multivariable regression, pathway enrichment, and integrated multi-omics analyses will be conducted. Machine learning methods, including LASSO regression and random forest or XGBoost when appropriate, will be explored to identify relevant molecular features and develop models for clinical phenotypes such as elevated ALT and early liver fibrosis.

Study Objectives The primary objective is to investigate associations between HBV genomic characteristics, host multi-omics profiles, and clinical phenotypes. The study also aims to identify potential biomarkers associated with liver inflammation, early fibrosis, viral replication, and HBsAg expression.

This is an observational study. No investigational drugs, medical devices, or therapeutic interventions will be administered. The study is not designed to establish causal relationships or directly evaluate long-term clinical outcomes.
