Why Resistance Mutation Testing Matters
Long-term antiviral treatment for chronic hepatitis B can lead to the emergence of drug-resistant mutations. These mutations reduce the effectiveness of specific antiviral agents and may necessitate a change in treatment regimen.
Resistance testing identifies specific mutations in the reverse transcriptase region of the HBV genome. This information is critical for selecting alternative antiviral agents and managing treatment failure.
