Tenofovir Alafenamide 25 MG: To assess the safety, efficacy, and drug adherence improvement of TAF switching therapy in kidney or liver transplant patients with HBV infection.
Study summary
tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has been approved to be highly effective and safe in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), therefore TAF may be a good option in kidney or liver transplant patients with chronic HBV infection. The aim of this prospective cohort study is to assess the safety, efficacy, and drug adherence improvement of TAF switching therapy in kidney or liver transplant patients with HBV infection.
