Abstract:Objective To investigate the occurrence of the related risk factor hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation after chemotherapy in hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) negative patients with malignant carcinoma. Methods A total of five hundred and seventy HBsAg-negative patients with malignant carcinoma who received chemotherapy were recruited during the period of 2006-01 to 2014-12 in Shanghai Corps Hospital of Chinese People’s Armed Police Force. The patients were divided into reactivation group (n=25) and inactivation (n=545) group according to whether the virus was reactivated after chemotherapy. The general information, chemotherapy regimen and index of laboratory examination in both groups were analyzed retrospectively,2 test and logistic regression analysis were performed on potential influencing factors for HBV reactivation. Results The univariate analysis indicated that gender, hepatitis B surface antibody status, e antibody status, core antibody status and whether or no application of immune suppression were statistically significantly different between the two groups. The multivariate non-conditioned logistic regression analysis of these five factors indicated that male (OR=7.700, P<0.001), hepatitis B surface antibody negative (OR=0.056, P<0.001), E antibody positive (OR=4.670, P<0.01) and application of immune suppression (OR=7.978, P<0.01) were independent risk factors for HBV reactivation after chemotherapy. Conclusions For male, surface antibody negative, core antibody positive and application of immune suppression of HBsAg negative patients with malignant carcinoma, chemotherapy should closely monitor HBV whether reactivation or take early antiviral treatment to prevent HBV reactivation.
