Summary

The purpose of this study is to observe a new scheme can achieve is the same as the traditional scheme of the effect of preventing hepatitis B recurrence.

Detailed description

At present, the prevention of hepatitis B recurrence after liver transplantation is the most commonly used scheme for nucleoside analogue combined hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG). HBIG is a condensed to prevent the efficient price of invasion of hepatitis b immunoglobulin, its function is a direct and virus.Also it is to block the virus into liver cells. Lamivudine with HBIG therapy has hepatitis b recurrence rate reduced to below 10%, entecavir combined HBIG hepatitis b recurrence rate is low below 1%. In European and American countries, HBIG the most commonly used method for long-term high-dose intravenous drip, but our country is long-term low-dose intramuscular injection, but all need lifelong medication, for how long after surgery or which patients can disable or not HBIG no consensus. Whether long-term intravenous drip or intramuscular HBIG, are some disadvantages such as high cost, drug side effects, also brought inconvenience to patients. The advent of potent against hepatitis b virus drugs continuously under the background of, in recent years, scholars have already begun to no application or short-term application HBIG discontinuation to prevent hepatitis b recurrence after research, low before transplantation of hepatitis B virus(HBV) DNA replication, such as effective antiviral therapy of hepatitis b recurrence after after transplantation were created the conditions of no HBIG solution. Most studies suggest that transplantation of nucleoside analogues alone for a long time without application or short-term application of HBIG scheme to prevent hepatitis b recurrence is safe, but there are only several transplant center in study abroad, and the Chinese mainland for all application or short-term application of HBIG clinical studies. Entecavir with potent antiviral capacity and high genetic barrier to resistance, low incidence of drug resistance, is currently the prevention and treatment of hepatitis b recurrence after liver transplantation of first-line drugs, entecavir combined long-term muscle injection low-dose HBIG is at present our country is the most commonly used drug for liver transplantation in our center. This study for entecavir combined after liver transplantation for short-term application type static note HBIG to prevent hepatitis b recurrence of prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled experimental study, the equivalence. The purpose of this study is to observe a new scheme can achieve is the same as the traditional scheme of the effect of preventing hepatitis B recurrence.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	Entecavir combined long-term low-dose HBIG group intramuscular	HBIG scheme is: the use of intraoperative muscle injection of 800 IU HBIG, postoperative week 1 intramuscular injection HBIG 400 IU 1 times a day, 1 week after intramuscular injection HBIG 400 IU 2 times per week, dosage and time interval according to the HBsAb drops in patients with degree of level adjustment, target drops for 3 months or more after 500 IU/mL, 3 \~ 6 months or 300 IU/mL, after six months of 100 IU/mL or more.
DRUG	Entecavir combined HBIG group short-term high-dose intravenous	Preoperative HBV DNA level is less than 1000 IU/ml, intraoperative intravenous drip of 2500 IU HBIG static note type, postoperative 1 and 15 days respectively to give 2500 IU HBIG static note type, a total of three times, then no longer apply. Preoperative HBV DNA level greater than 1000 IU/ml, the use of HBIG solution for: intraoperative intravenous drip of 5000 IU HBIG static note type, postoperative day 1, 15 days and 30 days respectively to give 2000-2500 IU HBIG static note type, a total of four times, since then no longer apply. Preoperative HBV DNA level of the unknown, preoperative immediate detection of DNA, intraoperative intravenous drip of 5000 iu HBIG static note type, choose according to test results after dosing frequency.
