Aim: To compare amino acid changes within HBV polymerase/reverse<br />

transcriptase (pol/RT) after up to 5 years (240<br />

weeks) of treatment with TDF or the combination of FTC and<br />

TDF. Methods: Patients enrolled in the study were receiving<br />

LAM, harbored LAM resistance mutations in pol/RT (rtM204V/<br />

I±rtL180M) as determined by INNO-LiPA Multi-DR v2/v3, and<br />

were randomized 1:1 to receive TDF or FTC/TDF for up to<br />

240 weeks. A subset of enrolled patients received prior CHB<br />

treatment in addition to LAM: 13 received entecavir (ETV) and<br />

61 received adefovir (ADV). In addition, a subset of enrolled<br />

patients harbored ETV resistance mutations at baseline (TDF =<br />

14, FTC/TDF = 11). Virologic breakthrough (VB) was defined<br />

as confirmed HBV DNA >1 log 10<br />

increase from nadir or HBV<br />
