In Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients receiving long-term sequential Neucleos(t)ides(NAs), majority of these CHB patients experienced drug resistance and switched to Tenofovir disoproxil fumaratate(TDF). However, some of patients on long term TDF experienced impairment of renal function and bone mineral density. After Tenofovir alafenamide(TAF) was in clinical practice, these group of patients got an clinical option to switch from TDF to TAF. The investigators designed a prospective cohort study to evaluate the real life effectiveness and safety in participants with chronic HBV infection switch from TDF to TAF vs. maintaining on TDF.
