What this Trial Is About
Chronic hepatitis B virus HBV infection is a major global health issue that can lead to serious liver problems such as cirrhosis, liver cancer, and death. This observational study aims to gather detailed information from a broad group of Chinese patients with chronic HBV infection to better understand the factors that influence disease outcomes. The study involves creating a comprehensive database of clinical, epidemiological, biological, virological, immunologic, and treatment-related data from patients with chronic HBV infection. There are no drug interventions instead, participants are monitored as part of this long-term cohort. Participants will be followed over many years, with researchers tracking outcomes like loss of hepatitis B antigens, development of cirrhosis, liver failure, liver cancer, and mortality. Regular assessments will collect relevant health information to help identify the factors linked to disease progression. The study is planned to continue until 2030, providing extensive long-term data on chronic HBV infection.
