Objective: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a common cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Interferons and nucleos(t)ide analogs are being used for the treatment of chronic HBV infection. Entecavir (ETV) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) are the strongest oral antiviral agents. In this study, we aimed to investigate efficacy and safety of ETV and TDF in treatment of naive cirrhotic patients infected with HBV.
