Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The aim of this study is to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based predictive model capable of distinguishing progression to true HBV reactivation from spontaneous viral clearance by training on longitudinal viral load trajectories and clinical outcomes of patients with HBV reactivation who did not receive antiviral therapy. This multicenter study will be conducted in collaboration with 18 institutions across Japan, including Kyoto University Hospital. The proposed model is expected to enable evidence-based decision-making regarding individualized monitoring strategies and the optimal timing of therapeutic intervention. Ultimately, this approach may help avoid unnecessary antiviral treatment while contributing to the prevention of severe hepatitis associated with HBV reactivation.

Basic objectives -Others

-To characterize longitudinal patterns of HBV DNA kinetics in patients with HBV reactivation.
-To identify clinical and virological factors associated with progression to clinically significant HBV reactivation (HBV DNA levels above 3.3 log IU/mL).
-To classify HBV DNA trajectory patterns using a Latent Class Mixed Model and evaluate the association between each cluster and subsequent clinical outcomes.
-To assess the discriminatory performance and predictive accuracy of the developed AI-based prediction model in an independent validation cohort.
-To evaluate the validity of model-guided monitoring intervals and criteria for initiation of antiviral therapy.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Progression to clinically significant HBV reactivation (HBV DNA >3.3 log IU/mL)

Key secondary outcomes

the rate of spontaneous viral clearance, longitudinal changes in HBV DNA levels, the incidence of hepatitis accompanied by ALT elevation, the initiation and timing of nucleos(t)ide analogue therapy, and the discriminatory performance and diagnostic accuracy of the developed prediction model

Other related information

This study is a multicenter retrospective observational study. Patients diagnosed with HBV reactivation between January 1, 2009 and June 30, 2025 at Kyoto University Hospital and collaborating institutions will be included. Existing clinical data obtained from medical records and laboratory databases will be analyzed to evaluate longitudinal HBV DNA kinetics, clinical characteristics, treatment interventions, and clinical outcomes. The association between HBV DNA dynamics and subsequent outcomes in patients who did not receive antiviral therapy will be investigated, and an AI-based model will be developed and validated to predict progression to clinically significant HBV reactivation or spontaneous viral clearance.
