Tenofovir alafenamide significantly increased serum lipid levels compared with entecavir therapy in chronic hepatitis B virus patients.
World Journal of Hepatology 2023 August 28
BACKGROUND: Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has a serum lipid-raising effect in patients with HIV; however, its effect on serum lipids and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) risk in patients with chronic hepatitis B ( CHB) is unclear.
AIM: To compare the effects of TAF and entecavir (ETV) on serum lipid levels in patients with CHB.
METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, the data including the clinical features, serum lipids, and metabolic factors of patients with CHB at baseline and approximately 1 year after TAF or ETV treatment were collected and analyzed. We used propensity score-matched models to assess the effects on high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, triglycerides, and total cholesterol (TCHO).
RESULTS: A total of 336 patients (75.60% male) were included; 63.69% received TAF and 36.31% received ETV. Compared with the ETV group, the TAF group had significantly higher TCHO levels after treatment (4.67 ± 0.90 vs 4.36 ± 1.05, P = 0.006). In a propensity score-matched model for body mass index, age, sex, smoking, drinking, presence of comorbidities such as NAFLD, cirrhosis, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension, TAF-treated patients had significantly increased TCHO levels compared to that at baseline ( P = 0.019). There was no difference for the ETV group. Body mass index, sex, hypertension, baseline TCHO, and creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme levels were significantly associated with elevated TCHO levels in logistic regression analysis. However, 1-year TAF treatment did not increase the incidence of NAFLD.
CONCLUSION: A greater increase in TCHO was observed in patients with CHB receiving TAF compared to those receiving ETV. However, TAF-induced dyslipidemia did not increase the incidence of NAFLD.
