Abstract

Fatal chemotherapy‑induced hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBV‑R) is a well‑described serious complication observed in patients with lymphoma and resolved HBV infection. The aim of the present study was to determine the predictive factors of the development of chemotherapy‑induced HBV‑R. A total of 77 consecutive newly diagnosed patients with lymphoma and resolved HBV infection, who received chemotherapy from 2007 through 2015 were analysed retrospectively. Significant predictive factors associated with HBV‑R were identified based on the data from these patients. Ten patients developed HBV‑R during and following chemotherapy, and two of these 10 patients developed HBV‑associated hepatitis flares. There was a significant negative correlation between anti‑hepatitis B core (HBc) titres prior to chemotherapy and time to HBV‑R (P=0.016, R=‑0.732). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses demonstrated that anti‑HBc and anti‑hepatitis B surface (HBs) titres at baseline were significant predictive factors for HBV‑R. In addition, patients with high anti‑HBc titres at baseline (above 10 S/CO) were significantly more likely to experience HBV‑R than patients with low anti‑HBc and high anti‑HBs titres (above 28 mIU/ml), who did not experience complete reactivation (P<0.0001). Furthermore, patients with low anti‑HBs titres were significantly more likely to experience HBV‑R than those with high anti‑HBs titres (P=0.031). All HBV‑R episodes among the patients with high anti‑HBc titres occurred within 3 months following the initiation of chemotherapy. The combination of anti‑HBc and anti‑HBs titres, as opposed to either titre alone, at baseline in patients with lymphoma may serve as a surrogate marker for the occurrence of HBV‑R under the influence of chemotherapy.
