For chronic hepatitis B patients, hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroclearance signals a transition from an immunologically active phase to an inactive carrier state with a reduction in hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA levels and a reduced risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).1 Predictors of HBeAg seroclearance include lower HBV DNA levels, viral genotype, the precore mutation, and higher serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels.2.
