Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes can influence clinical outcomes as well as response to antiviral therapy. This study evaluated the tenofovir (TFV) susceptibility of HBV genotype B, C and D clinical isolates with adefovir resistance-associated mutations (ADV-R). METHODS: Full-length HBV isolates from patients infected with genotype B, C and D virus had rtA181T, rtA181V, rtN236T,...
