Zusammenfassung: | Background & Aims We investigated the long-term efficacy and renal safety of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), administered to patients co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus and hepatitis B virus (HBV) as part of an antiretroviral therapy. Methods We performed a multicenter, prospective cohort study of 102 patients co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus and HBV who were treated with TDF. Results At baseline, 80% of patients had a detectable viral load (HBV DNA >20 IU/mL). Among patients positive for hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) (n = 67), 92% had a virologic response (HBV DNA |
