The Safety of Anti-viral Therapy in Preventing HBV MTCT in Pregnant Women After Discontinuation

The Safety of Anti-viral Therapy in Preventing Mother-to-child Transmission of Hepatitis B Virus in Pregnant Women After Discontinuation

Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) is the most common mode of perpetuating chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in endemic countries. Many studies have demonstrated antepartum anti-viral therapy (AVT) is a advisable option to reduce mother-to-child transmission and the risk of vaccination breakthrough in infants who received passive-active immunoprophylaxis. However, several controversies over antiviral treatment have not been resolved, that is, optimal duration, effect of postpartum therapy, and risk of postpartum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) flare after withdrawal. Will the risk of postpartum hepatitis flares increase after short-term AVT in late pregnancy for maternal HBV infection is discontinued? Is there any correlation between postpartum hepatitis flares and withdrawal time? Will the proportion of postpartum flares be reduced if extending the duration of AVT after delivery? There is an urgent need in this area. This study mainly investigated the safety of antiviral therapy in preventing HBV mother-to-child transmission in pregnant women after discontinuation.

Studieoversikt

Detaljert beskrivelse

Between June 2015 and December 2017, 111 mothers were enrolled during their visit to the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics or the Department of Infectious Diseases of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, China. Pregnant women fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria were offered participation in the study. All pregnant women who opted for AVT need to sign a consent form and started on oral telbivudine (LDT) 600 mg or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) 300 mg (as per patients' wishes) daily between gestational weeks 24 and 28. Serum levels of HBV DNA, HBsAg, HBsAb, HBeAg, HBeAb, liver function tests, haematology and renal biochemistry were measured at baseline(i.e. at screening), every 4 weeks after treatment begins, at the time of delivery, and at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12 month postpartum. After delivery, treatment with LDT or TDF was immediately withdrew to the patients with an intention of breastfeeding, while the other patients, without desire of breastfeeding, would subsequently extend antiviral treatment duration to postpartum 6 weeks. All infants were vaccinated with genetically engineered HBV vaccine 20 ug according to a standard vaccination regimen (i.e. within 12h of birth, at week 4 and at week 24) and 200 IU doses of hepatitis B immunoglobulin immediately (within 2h) after birth and at day 15. The infant's HBV serologic status and HBV DNA were tested at birth (before immunization) and again at 7 months. The investigators discussed the postpartum liver function after withdrawal and evaluated the impact of extending the postpartum duration of AVT administered for the prevention of perinatal transmission.

Tiltaksbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Postpartum flare incidence
Tidsramme: From baseline to postpartum 12 months.
Time-to-event measures. Postpartum flare was defined as an alanine aminotransferase (ALT) rise to three times baseline level or five times ULN (40U/L) within 12 months post-delivery. Maternal would be recorded if postpartum flare occured. At the end of postpartum 12-month follow-up period, postpartum flare incidence was measured.
From baseline to postpartum 12 months.
