Dually Active HIV/HBV Antiretrovirals as Protection Against Incident Hepatitis B Infections: Potential for Prophylaxis.
BACKGROUND Hepatitis B virus (HBV) has a detrimental effect on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) natural course, and HBV vaccination is less effective in the HIV infected. We examine the protective effect of dually active antiretroviral therapy (DAART) for HIV/HBV (tenofovir, lamivudine, and emtricitabine) in a large cohort encompassing heterosexuals, men who have sex with men, and intravenous...
متن کاملProtective effect of hepatitis B virus-active antiretroviral therapy against primary hepatitis B virus infection.
OBJECTIVE Current guidelines advise to vaccinate every hepatitis B virus (HBV)-susceptible HIV patient against HBV until sufficient antibody titers have been reached. However, in this era of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), acute HBV infection rarely occurs in patients who lack this immune protection. We analyzed whether HBV-active cART (lamivudine, emtricitabine, tenofovir) might wor...
متن کاملHigh prevalence of asymptomatic HBV chronic carriage in HIV infected long term survivors
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is common in individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus, and coinfection is associated with higher rates of HBV replication and more rapid liver disease progression than HBV monoinfection. This study evaluates the prevalence and virological profiles of hepatitis B infection in a cohort of long term survivors, with multiple antiretroviral treatments....
متن کامل1603Increased Risk of Hip Fracture Associated with Dually-Treated HIV/Hepatitis B Virus Coinfection
HIV and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections are each associated with reduced bone mineral density, but it is unclear whether HIV/HBV coinfection is associated with an increased risk of fracture. We determined whether dually treated HIV/HBV patients had a higher incidence of hip fracture compared to treated HBV-monoinfected, antiretroviral therapy (ART)-treated HIV-monoinfected and HIV/HBV-uninfe...
متن کاملPostexposure prophylactic effect of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-active antiretroviral therapy against HBV infection.
Retrospective study indicates that hepatitis B virus (HBV)-active nucleoside (nucleotide) analogues (NAs) used for antiretroviral therapy reduce the incidence of acute HBV infections in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. Learning from HIV postexposure prophylaxis (PEP), we explored the possibility of using NAs in PEP following HBV exposure, if preexposure prophylaxis is feasi...
