About
As an alternative biomarker of intrahepatic covalently closed circular DNA(cccDNA) transcriptional activity, hepatitis B virus(HBV)RNA may evolve during long-lasting virus-host interactionsduring chronic hepatitis B viral infection.The distribution pattern of serum HBV RNA levels in the natural course of chronic HBV infection remains unclear. Furthermore,serum HBV RNA was associated with response to NAs. So it may be another clinical surrogate marker for intrahepatic cccDNA level after long-term NAs treatment and be used to monitor NAs therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate thelevels of HBV RNA during the natural courseof CHB and the role in distinguishingthe natural phases of HBV infection and to investigate whether serum HBV RNA level at the end of long-term NAs treatment had a similar or better predict effect on off-therapy relapse than serum HBsAg titer.
