Main study objective

Characterization of viral and immunological markers in hepatitis B patients.
The knowledge gained should contribute to a better understanding of HBV control and enable patient stratification with regard to immunomodulatory therapies.

Outcomes

HBsAg decline/loss, seroconversion to anti-HBs, Quantification of soluble immune mediators, Hepatitis B related Quality of Life (SF36), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), liver cirrhosis, death
