Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF) is an orally administered ester prodrug of tenofovir, a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor that shows potent in vitro activity against both hepatitis B virus (HBV) and HIV-1.As a component of antiretroviral combination therapy regimens, tenofovir DF is well established in the treatment of adults with HIV-1 infection. Tenofovir DF, administered once daily, is also used in the treatment of adults with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) [the main focus of this profile].In CHB, the efficacy of tenofovir DF against HBV has been evaluated in two large randomized, phase III clinical studies in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-negative or HBeAg-positive adults, with compensated liver function. The trials (planned duration 8 years) were double-blind for the first 48 weeks; thereafter, patients received open-label tenofovir DF. Results at 48 and 96 weeks are available.In these studies, at week 48, a significantly greater proportion of recipients of tenofovir DF 300 mg once daily than oral adefovir dipivoxil 10 mg once daily achieved a complete response (primary end-point). A complete response was defined as a reduction from baseline in plasma HBV DNA level to
