Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation has been reported during antihepatitis C treatment in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and HBV co-infection. We aimed to evaluate the frequency and risk factors of HBV reactivation during anti-HCV therapy and compared those between interferon (IFN)-free direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapies and IFN-based therapies. Three hundred and twenty-two patients with HCV infection receiving anti-HCV therapy were retrospectively screened. The baseline HBV infection statuses of all eligible patients and the HBV-DNA level of all patients with current or previous HBV infection were examined at the end of treatment. In patients with baseline anti-HBs positivity, changes in anti-HBs titre were evaluated. Of 287 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 157 had current (n=4) or previous (n=153) HBV infection; 85 were treated with IFN-free DAA therapies and 72 were treated with IFN-based therapies. Six patients experienced HBV reactivation (n=2) or HBV reappearance (n=4) after IFN-free DAA therapies, while no patient developed HBV reactivation after IFN-based therapies. The risk factors of HBV reactivation or reappearance were DAA therapies and a reduction in anti-HBs titre to
