In this relatively large cohort of allogeneic HCT recipients at risk for HBV reactivation, authors demonstrated that HBV vaccination with at least 2 doses of recombinant vaccine starting 1 year after transplantation is independently associated with a reduced risk for HBV reactivation and appears to be durable for years. Furthermore, authors confirmed that that HBV reactivation is a late complication of HCT, occurring at a median of 21 months after transplantation. Finally, authors confirmed that recipient HBsAb concentration above the threshold of protection (10 IU/L) before transplantation is independently associated with a reduced risk of reactivation after transplantation.

This Article supports SDG 3 by estimating the prevalence of hepatitis B, C and D viruses in Vietnam since 1990; findings indicate that hepatitis B virus is by far the biggest contributor to hepatitis-related morbidity and mortality in Vietnam and so and elimination efforts must focus on screening and treatment of pregnant women and improved provision of active and passive immunisation at birth to prevent vertical transmission.
