  • Bulevirtide monotherapy for chronic hepatitis D (CHD) was shown to be safe and effective over 144 weeks, with continued improvement in HDV RNA undetectability rates with longer treatment duration.
  • Response rates (virologic, combined, and ALT normalization) decreased after treatment discontinuation, but a subset of patients maintained sustained undetectable HDV RNA during 96 weeks of posttreatment follow-up.
  • The duration of continuous HDV RNA undetectability at the end of treatment was the strongest predictor of sustained virologic response after discontinuation, allowing some patients to stop treatment without relapse.
