Hepatitis B Virus Disease:
Epidemiology
 HBV is leading cause of chronic liver disease
worldwide
 Approximately 10% of HIV-infected patients had
chronic HBV infection (globally and in North
America)
 In low-prevalence countries, transmitted primarily
through sexual contact and injection drug use
 More efficient transmission than HIV-1
 In higher-prevalence countries, perinatal
transmission is most common

Hepatitis B Virus Disease:
Epidemiology (2)
 HIV infection increases risk of chronic hepatitis
B after HBV exposure
 HIV/HBV-coinfected patients have higher HBV
DNA levels, greater likelihood of HBe
antigenemia, and increased risk of liver-related
morbidity and mortality

HBV Disease: Epidemiology (3)
 Incubation period
 Exposure to onset of jaundice: 90 days (range 60150 days)
 Exposure to onset of abnormal liver enzymes: 60
days (range 40-90 days)
 Genotypes A-H, GT A is most common in North
America and Western Europe

HBV Disease: Clinical Manifestations
 Acute hepatitis B:
 May be asymptomatic
 Symptoms may include RUQ abdominal pain,
nausea, vomiting, fever, arthralgias, jaundice

HBV Disease: Clinical Manifestations (2)
 Chronic hepatitis B:
 Most have no symptoms or nonspecific
symptoms (eg, fatigue) until development of
cirrhosis and signs of portal hypertension (eg,
ascites, variceal bleeding, coagulopathy,
jaundice, hepatic encephalopathy)
 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is
asymptomatic in early stages
 Other manifestations: polyarteritis nodosa,
glomerulonephritis, vasculitis

HBV Disease: Diagnosis
 All HIV-infected persons should be tested for
HBV
 Test for HBsAg, HBcAb, and HBsAb
 HBsAb can be detected 4 weeks (range 1-9 weeks)
after exposure anti-HBc IgM usually detectable at
onset of symptoms
 Chronic hepatitis B: HBsAg detected on 2
occasions ≥6 months apart
 Test for HBeAg, anti-HBe, HBV DNA
 HBV DNA and ALT elevation distinguish active from
inactive HBV

HBV Disease: Diagnosis (2)
 Isolated positive anti-HBc:
 May reflect a false-positive result, distant exposure
with loss of anti-HBs, or “occult” chronic HBV infection
 More common in HIV-infected patients, especially if
underlying HCV infection
 Some recommend that patients with isolated anti-HBc
be tested for HBV DNA: if positive, treat as chronically
infected, if negative, consider susceptible to HBV and
vaccinate accordingly

HBV Disease: Diagnosis (3)
Additional evaluation
 To assess severity and progression of disease,
check ALT, AST, albumin, bilirubin, PT, and
CBC at diagnosis and at least every 6 months
thereafter
 Transient or persistent elevated ALT levels
caused by many factors, including:
 Discontinuation of HBV therapy, resistance to HBV
therapy, before loss of HBeAg, hepatotoxicity from
HIV or other medications, immune reconstitution,
infection with a new hepatitis virus (HAV, HCV,
delta virus [HDV])

HBV Disease: Diagnosis (4)
Additional evaluation
 Screening for HCC:
 Chronic HBV increases risk of HCC
 Risk and natural history of HBV-related HCC
in HIV-coinfected patents has not been
determined
 Liver imaging recommended every 6 months
if cirrhotic, Asian male > age 40, Asian
female >age 50, sub-Saharan African male
>age 20

HBV Disease: Diagnosis (5)
Additional evaluation
 Liver biopsy:
 Valuable for characterizing activity and severity of
liver disease, may help to monitor disease
progression, guide treatment, exclude other
diseases
 Individualize decisions to perform biopsy, especially
as treatment of both HIV and HBV is recommended
for all coinfected patients, using anti-HBV ARVs in
the ART regimen
 Noninvasive methods to evaluate fibrosis not yet
validated in HIV/HBV coinfection
12

HBV Disease: Preventing Exposure
 Counsel all HIV-infected patients about
reducing risk of exposure to HBV
 Emphasize transmission risks of sharing
needles and syringes, tattooing, body
piercing, unprotected sex
13

6/05
HBV Disease: Preventing Disease
 Vaccinate all HIV-infected patients without
evidence of prior immunity
 Vaccine efficacy higher at CD4 count >350
cells/μL, but do not defer for lower counts
 Decreased response to vaccination in
coinfected patients: check anti-HBs titers 1
month after 3-shot series
 If no response, consider revaccination
 Some experts might wait to revaccinate until
sustained CD4 increase with effective ART
14
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Preventing Disease (2)
 Double dose of vaccine (40 mcg) recommended
by some experts
 In one study, increased response rate in HIV-infected
patients with CD4 count >350 cells/µL
 HAV-susceptible HIV-infected patients should
receive HAV vaccine
 Check HAV IgG 1 month after vaccination; if negative,
revaccinate when CD4 >200 cells/µL
 All HBV patients should avoid alcohol
consumption

6/05
HBV Disease: Treatment
 Goals of anti-HBV therapy: reduce morbidity and
mortality
 Treatment indicated for all with HIV/HBV
coinfection, regardless of CD4 count or HBV
treatment status
 Treat with ART that includes 2 drugs active
against both HIV and HBV (ie, tenofovir plus
emtricitabine or lamivudine)
 Regimen should fully suppress both HIV and
HBV
16
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Treatment (2)
 Most drugs active against HBV are also active
against HIV: lamivudine, emtricitabine,
tenofovir, entecavir, probably telbivudine,
adefovir (at full dose)
 HIV may develop resistance to these agents if
they are not coadministered in fully suppressive
ART regimens
 Avoid HBV monotherapy with emtricitabine or
lamivudine – high rates of HBV resistance
17
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Treatment (3)
 Preferred
 ART regimen should include tenofovir 300 mg PO
QD + [emtricitabine 200 mg PO QD or lamivudine
300 mg PO QD] or 2 other drugs active against HBV
(+ additional therapy active against HIV)
 Continue treatment indefinitely
 Alternative
 If patients do not want ART or are unable to take it:
 Treatment indicated when presence of active liver disease,
elevated transaminases, and HBV DNA >2,000 IU/mL, or
significant fibrosis
 Peginterferon-alfa 2a or 2b for 48 weeks
 If tenofovir cannot be used:
 Fully suppressive ART regimen (without tenofovir), plus
entecavir
18

6/05
HBV Disease: Treatment (4)
 When changing ART, continue agents active
against HBV to avoid HBV flare, IRIS
 If anti-HBV therapy is discontinued and disease
flares, reintroducing anti-HBV therapy can be life
saving
19
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
HBV Disease: Treatment (5)
 HBV/HCV/HIV triple infection:
 Faster progression of liver fibrosis, higher
risk of HCC, increased mortality
 Try to treat both hepatitis viruses, if feasible
 Include anti-HBV therapy with ART;
introduce HCV therapy as needed
 If ART is not desired, consider treatment
with interferon-alfa-based therapy for both
HBV and HCV
20
July 2013

6/05
HBV Disease: Starting ART
 ART strongly recommended for all with
HIV/HBV coinfection, regardless of ART
 ART that includes agents with activity against
both viruses is recommended
21

HBV Disease: Monitoring
Monitoring treatment response:
 HBV DNA every 12 weeks
 Complete virologic response: undetectable HBV
DNA at 24-48 weeks
 Nonresponse: <1 log10 copies/mL decrease in
HBV DNA at 12 weeks
 Sustained virologic response: undetectable HBV
DNA 6 months after stopping therapy
 HBeAg every 6 months (if HBeAg positive)
 HBeAg loss, development of HBeAb (uncommon)
 Liver histology, transaminases

HBV Disease: Adverse Events
 Tenofovir
 Renal toxicity; more frequent if underlying renal
disease or prolonged treatment
 Check electrolytes and serum creatinine at
baseline and every 3-6 months; urinalysis every 6
months
 Change to alternative therapy if renal toxicity
occurs
 Dosage adjustment required if used in patients
with baseline renal insufficiency
 Entecavir
 Lactic acidosis reported in patients with cirrhosis
23
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Adverse Events (2)
 Telbivudine
 CPK elevations and myopathy reported; check
CPK at baseline and every 3-6 months, and if
symptoms occur
 Discontinue if CPK elevation
 Adefovir
 Renal tubular disease at higher dosages;
uncommon at HBV treatment dosage
 Interferon-alfa
 “Flulike” symptoms (fever, myalgia, headache,
fatigue), depression (may be severe), cognitive
dysfunction, cytopenias including CD4 decrease,
retinopathy, neuropathy, autoimmune disorders,
hypo- or hyperthyroidism (monitor TSH)
24

HBV Disease: Adverse Events (3)
Discontinuation flares
 Discontinuation of nucleos(t)ide analogues
active against HBV (eg, lamivudine,
adefovir, tenofovir, or emtricitabine)
associated with HBV flare in ~30% of
cases; may cause decompensation
 If anti-HBV therapy is discontinued, monitor
transaminases every 6 weeks for 3 months,
then every 3 months
 In case of flare, reinstitute HBV treatment
25
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: IRIS
 Immune reconstitution in HIV/HBV-coinfected
patients can cause rise in transaminases and
symptoms of acute hepatitis flare, usually in
first 6-12 weeks after starting ART
 Monitor transaminases monthly for first 3-6
months, then every 3 months
 Flares can be deadly; treat HBV when treating
HIV
 Continue anti-HBV drugs to prevent flares when
switching to ART regimens not containing
lamivudine, emtricitabine, or tenofovir
26
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: IRIS (2)
 If severe flare or suspected HBV drug resistance,
consult with hepatologist
 Distinguishing IRIS and other causes of
transaminase elevation (eg, hepatotoxicity, acute
HCV or HAV, HBV drug resistance, HBeAg
seroconversion) is difficult
 Test HBV DNA, HBeAg, HIV RNA, CD4
 Consider liver histology
 Test for other viral hepatitis as appropriate (hepatitis A,
C, D, E)
 Review medication list
 Review drug and alcohol use
27
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: IRIS (3)
 Hepatotoxicity is associated with all classes of
ARVs, but is uncommon
 Discontinuation of ART usually not necessary unless
symptoms of hypersensitivity are present (fever,
lymphadenopathy, rash), symptomatic hepatitis, or
transaminase elevations >10 times upper limit of
normal
 Jaundice is associated with severe morbidity and
mortality: discontinue offending drug(s)
28

HBV Disease: Treatment Failure
 Treatment failure on nucleos(t)ide analogues:
<1 log10 copies/mL decrease in HBV DNA at
12 weeks in adherent patient, or increase in
HBV DNA >1 log10 above nadir
 Usually attributable to drug resistant HBV;
change in treatment is needed
 Many experts suggest HBV resistance testing
 May help distinguish noncompliance and resistance,
evaluate patients with unclear treatment history,
assess different adefovir resistance pathways, and
predict level of resistance to entecavir
29
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Treatment Failure (2)
 HBV monotherapy should not be used: risk of
resistance mutations to both HBV and HIV
 Lamivudine resistance:
 ~20% per year in HIV/HBV patients treated with
lamivudine alone
 Cross-resistance to emtricitabine, telbivudine,
perhaps entecavir
 If lamivudine-resistant HBV is suspected or
documented, add tenofovir to lamivudine
30
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Treatment Failure (3)
 Treatment failure with tenofovir:
 Consider entecavir (especially if experienced with
lamivudine or emtricitabine)
 In vivo resistance to tenofovir not yet reported
 Treatment failure with entecavir:
 Cross-resistance with lamivudine, emtricitabine,
telbivudine
 Replace entecavir with tenofovir (+/- emtricitabine)
 Failure of response to pegylated interferonalfa:
 Nucleos(t)ide analogues
31
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
HBV Disease: Treatment Failure (4)
 HBV DNA may decline slowly over
months/years (especially when high before
treatment)
 Patients on adefovir or L-nucleosides with <2
log10 copies/mL decrease in HBV DNA should
be switched to more potent regimen (eg,
tenofovir + emtricitabine or entecavir) because
of risk of resistance
32
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Treatment Failure (5)
 ESLD management as in HIV-uninfected
patients
 Refer to hepatologist
 IFN contraindicated
 Nucleos(t)ide analogues safe and effective
 HCC screening:
 Imaging every 6-12 months if cirrhosis (ultrasound,
CT, MRI, depending on expertise of the imaging
center and whether patient has cirrhosis)
 Liver transplantation
 Not contraindicated in HIV infection, if on effective
ART
 HBV treatment is needed after transplant
33

6/05
HBV Disease: Preventing Recurrence
 Most patients should continue HBV therapy
(except interferon) indefinitely
 Relapses may occur on therapy, particularly if CD4
count is low
 Hepatitis flare may occur if treatment is stopped
34

6/05
HBV Disease: Considerations in Pregnancy
 All pregnant women should be screened for
HBsAg, HBcAb, and HBsAb and vaccinated
against HBV if sAg negative and sAb negative
 Hepatitis A vaccination can be given
 Acute HBV: treatment is supportive (including
maintaining normal blood glucose levels and
clotting status); higher risk of preterm labor
and delivery
35
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Considerations in Pregnancy (2)
 Perinatal HBV transmission (including failure of
prophylaxis) correlated with high maternal HBV
DNA levels
 ART including HBV-active drugs recommended
for all coinfected pregnant women
 Drugs with anti-HBV activity will lower HBV levels and
may decrease risk that HBV immune globulin and
vaccine will fail to prevent perinatal HBV transmission
 HBV treatment may lower risk of IRIS-related HBV
flare on ART
 Indefinite treatment is recommended; if ARVs are
discontinued postpartum, monitor LFTs frequently
36
July 2013
www.aidsetc.org
6/05
HBV Disease: Considerations in Pregnancy (3)
 Tenofovir/emtricitabine or tenofovir/lamivudine is
recommended as NRTI backbone for ART in
pregnant HIV/HBV-coinfected women
 More experience in pregnancy with lamivudine
 Entecavir, adefovir, telbivudine: not teratogenic
in animals; limited experience in human
pregnancy
 Consider whether other options are inappropriate; use
only with a fully suppressive ARV regimen
 Interferon should not be use during pregnancy:
antigrowth and antiproliferative effects
37

6/05
HBV Disease: Considerations in Pregnancy (4)
 Infants born to HBsAg+ women: hepatitis B
immune globulin and hepatitis B vaccine within
12 hours of birth
 2nd and 3rd doses of vaccine at 1 and 6 months
