lüll Meta-analysis: adefovir dipivoxil in combination with lamivudine in patients with lamivudine-resistant hepatitis B virus Chen EQ; Wang LC; Lei J; Xu L; Tang HVirol J 2009[Oct]; 6 (ä): 163BACKGROUND: Currently, there are no conclusive results on the efficacy of adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) plus lamivudine (LAM) in LAM-resistant patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). The aim of study was to evaluate the efficacy of rescue therapy with ADV plus LAM compared to ADV monotherapy in LAM-resistant CHB patients. RESULTS: We searched PUBMED, EMBASE, Web of Science, CNKI (National Knowledge Infrastructure), VIP database, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Six eligible trials (442 patients in total) were included and evaluated for methodologic quality and heterogeneity. Greater virological response and lower emergence rate of ADV-associated mutants was observed in ADV plus LAM compared to ADV monotherapy (both P < 0.05). On the contrary, the rate of ALT normalization, HBeAg clearance and seroconversion were all similar between ADV plus LAM and ADV (all P > 0.05). Additionally, adding-on or switch-to ADV was both well tolerated. CONCLUSION: The combination of ADV with LAM was superior in inhibiting HBV replication and preventing drug resistance as compared to ADV alone for LAM-resistant CHB patients.|*Drug Resistance, Viral[MESH]|Adenine/*analogs & derivatives/therapeutic use[MESH]|Antiviral Agents/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Clinical Trials as Topic[MESH]|Hepatitis B virus/*drug effects[MESH]|Hepatitis B, Chronic/*drug therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Lamivudine/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Organophosphonates/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
