New therapeutic agents for chronic hepatitis B

TL;DR: This Review provides a summary of available regimens with their strengths and limitations, and highlights future therapeutic strategies to target the virus and host immune response.

The microRNA‐99 family modulates hepatitis B virus replication by promoting IGF‐1R/PI3K/Akt/mTOR/ULK1 signaling‐induced autophagy

TL;DR: Experimental data demonstrated that the miR‐99 family promoted autophagy through mTOR/ULK1 signaling and thereby enhanced hepatitis B virus replication and promotes HBV replication posttranscriptionally through IGF‐1R/PI3K/Akt/mTOR/ulk1 signaling‐inducedAutophagy.

Treatment of chronic hepatitis B naïve patients with a therapeutic vaccine containing HBs and HBc antigens (a randomized, open and treatment controlled phase III clinical trial).

TL;DR: Nasvac induced a superior reduction of the viral load under the limit of detection compared to Peg-IFN treatment, and is a safe and efficacious finite alternative of antiviral treatment for CHB patients.
