Virologic factors associated with failure to passive–active immunoprophylaxis in infants born to HBsAg‐positive mothers

Abstract

Summary. In infants born to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)–positive mothers, failure after passive–active immunization still occurs. The role of maternal hepatitis B DNA level and other risk factors in this setting remains unclear. This study retrospectively evaluated virologic and other risk factors associated with immunoprophylaxis failure in infants born to HBsAg‐positive mothers. Between January 2007 and March 2010, we reviewed the clinical and virologic tests in 869 mother–infant pairs. All infants received the identical passive–active immunization schedule after birth. The failure infants (HBsAg positive at 7–12 months of age) were compared to infants who were HBsAg negative when tested during this time period. Among 869 infants, 27 (3.1%) infants were immunoprophylaxis failures and the other 842 (96.9%) infants remained HBsAg negative. When mothers’ pre‐delivery HBV DNA levels were stratified to <6, 6–6.99, 7–7.99 and ≥8 log 10 copies/mL, the corresponding rates of immunoprophylaxis failure were 0%, 3.2% (3/95), 6.7% (19/282) and 7.6% (5/66), respectively (P < 0.001 for the trend). All failure infants were born to hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)–positive mothers. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified maternal HBV DNA levels [odds ratio (OR) = 1.88, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.07–3.30] and detectable HBV DNA in the cord blood (OR = 39.67, 95% CI: 14.22–110.64) as independent risk factors for immunoprophylaxis failure. All failure infants were born to HBeAg‐positive mothers with HBV DNA levels ≥6 log 10 copies/mL. The presence of HBV DNA in cord blood predicted failure to passive–active immunization.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
