OBJECTIVES: Corticosteroids remain the mainstay of treatment for rheumatic diseases but can cause hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation in patients with resolved HBV infection. Risk assessment and stratification are needed to guide the management of these patients before corticosteroid therapy.
METHODS: We prospectively enrolled patients with negative hepatitis B surface antigen positive Anti-hepatitis B core status with or without corticosteroid use and determined corticosteroid exposure by calculating cumulative dose and time-weighted average daily dose of prednisone. The primary outcome was the time to a composite of HBV reactivation, hepatitis flare or severe hepatitis.
RESULTS: Among 1303 participants, the median of cumulative dose and time-weighted average dose of prednisone used in this cohort was 3000 mg (IQR: 300-6750 mg) and 15 mg/day (IQR: 10-20 mg/day), respectively. In multivariable analyses, cumulative dose showed inverted V-shaped relationship with primary events, which peaked at a cumulative dose of 1506 mg (HR: 3.72; 95% CI, 1.96 to 7.08). Quartiles of time-weighted average dose were independently associated with a monotonic increase in event risk (HR per quartile increase: 2.15; 95% CI, 1.56 to 2.98), reaching an HR of 49.48 (95% CI, 6.24 to 392.48) in the top quartile. The incidence of primary outcome was 16.67 per 100 person-years in the top quartile of time-weighted average dose (Q4>20 mg/day). Other quartiles all had an incidence of primary outcome less than 10 per 100 person-years.
CONCLUSION: Patients with time-weighted average prednisone dose greater than 20 mg/day would be classified as the high risk for HBV reactivation or hepatitis flare. Prophylactic Anti-HBV therapy may be needed for these high-risk patients.
