Abstract:
Two patients with chronic Hepatitis B virus infection were treated with recombinant alpha-interferon. A positive response with seroconversion from HbeAg to Anti HBe and loss of HBsAg and appearance of Anti-HBs was obtained in one patient. Clinical characteristics and factors that may influence the response are discussed in the light of a review of the literature.
