“…28 There is an interesting observation that telbivudine can improve eGFR 29 and prevent nephrotoxicity in patients received adefovir. 30 There was an 8.5% increase in mean eGFR lasting for up to 6 years observed in the GLOBE study in which telbivudine was given for just 2 years.…”

SummaryBackgroundSafety profile of nucleos(t)ide analogues is an important issue in view of its widespread use for decades in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).AimTo review and evaluate the latest evidence on the safety profiles of the six approved nucleoside analogues.MethodsRelevant articles related to nucleoside analogue safety were selected for review following extensive language‐ and date‐unrestricted, electronic searches of the literature.ResultsNephrotoxicity has been well reported in patients receiving older generations of nucleotide analogues, namely adefovir dipivoxil and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). Yet risks of renal failure and renal replacement therapy were similar in patients treated with nucleoside analogues versus nucleotide analogues in real‐life setting. Bone toxicity is closely related to nucleoside analogue effect on renal proximal tubular and phosphaturia. Real‐life data demonstrated increased risk of hip fracture in patients receiving adefovir but not TDF. The newly approved tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has improved renal and bone safety profiles compared to TDF. Long‐term use of nucleoside analogues eg entecavir does not increase the risk of other cancers. Muscular toxicity may be seen in telbivudine‐treated patients so regular monitoring is advised. Peripheral neuropathy and lactic acidosis are rare adverse events. Latest international guidelines support the use of TDF, telbivudine and lamivudine during pregnancy; breastfeeding is not contraindicated during TDF therapy.ConclusionsLong‐term safety profile of nucleoside analogues is now better defined with more data from large real‐life cohorts and clinical trials with long‐term follow‐up. The new nucleotide analogue, TAF is now available with favourable renal and bone safety profiles.
