## Abstract To understand when the mutation with a stop codon of precore region in hepatitis B virus genome occurs, the prevalence of the mutation of viral DNA clones propagated from sera of school‐age carriers was investigated with respect to hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)/anti‐HBe and sequential c

This placebo controlled, double-blind study evaluated the efficacy and safety of lamivudine in patients with hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-negative/hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA-positive chronic hepatitis B. Patients were randomized to receive 100 mg lamivudine orally once daily for 52 weeks (n ؍ 60
## Abstract The evolution of precore stop codon mutation (A1896) and dinucleotide mutation (T1762/A1764) in the basic core promoter (BCP) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome during transient seroconversion and seroreversion of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) remains unclarified. Five HBeAg‐positive HBV
## Abstract Sera from 20 Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis B were examined for hepatitis B e antigen and hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA. There was considerable discordance with HBV DNA not being detectable in 10 out of 13 (77%) patients who were hepatitis B e antigen positive. Further testing fo
The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of hepatitis B virus (HBV) precore mutations in patients with anti-me-positive chronic hepatitis B with or without previous known HBe antigen (HBeAg) viremic phase, and to assess the potential implication of precore mutants in HBeAg-negative react
