Brief Summary

Antiviral therapy for HBV may play an important role here, as a large observation study from Taiwan reported that the use of nucleos(t)ide analogues (NUC) was associated with 33% reduction in HCC recurrence. In the first randomized controlled trial evaluating the use of NUC after surgical resection for HCC, NUC therapy was associated with better 2-year overall (94% vs. 62%) and recurrence-free (56% vs. 20%) survival. However, patients with active liver disease should be treated regardless of their impact on HCC recurrence (patients with high serum HBV DNA and abnormal ALT). What is less clear is that whether patients with low level HBV DNA, and normal serum ALT levels should be treated to reduce HCC recurrence. In this trial, we will investigate to determine the efficacy of the treatment with Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Viread(R)) as measured by the cumulative incidence rate of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at 3 year after curative treatment with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or surgical resection (SR) in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected patients with low viral load.
