                    [Summary] => At the recent 14th biennial conference of the Asian Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver, a new hepatitis B treatment option was cited. 


Peginterferon alfa 2-a has been shown to treat both HbeAG-positive and HbeAG-negative chronic hepatitis B, thus removing the need for daily and potentially life-long therapy for the disease.


The studies presented during the conference showed that peginterferon alfa 2-a is superior to lamivudine, the most commonly prescribed medication for hepatitis B.
