The main objective of this study is to compare the mother-to-infant transmission rates of hepatitis B between pregnant women receiving treatment with tenofovir alafenamide and those receiving treatment with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, after administering the hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immunoglobulin to their infants at birth. Investigators define the mother-to-infant transmission rate of hepatitis B as the proportion of infants who are HBsAg positive and have serum HBV DNA >20 IU/mL at 28 weeks of age among all live births in the experimental group.
Additionally, this study will also compare the incidence of congenital defects/malformations in infants born to mothers treated with tenofovir alafenamide and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate during the perinatal period to assess drug safety.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| TAF group | Experimental | Pregnant women will start TAF treatment (25 mg tablet taken orally once daily) from 28 weeks of gestation until delivery. After that, they will be randomly assigned to two subgroups among postpartum mothers without HBV treatment indications: one subgroup will stop treatment, while the other subgroup will continue with an additional 12 weeks of TAF treatment. The mothers and their infants will be followed up at 28 weeks postpartum. Infants will receive the hepatitis B vaccine and HBIG within 12 hours after birth, as well as booster doses of the hepatitis B vaccine at 4 weeks and 24 weeks. |
|
| TDF group | Active Comparator | The mother will start receiving TDF treatment (300 mg tablet taken orally once daily) at 28 weeks of pregnancy until delivery. After that, mothers without HBV treatment indications will be randomly assigned to two subgroups: one subgroup will stop treatment, while the other subgroup will receive an additional 12 weeks of TDF treatment. Infants will be vaccinated with the hepatitis B vaccine and HBIG within 12 hours after birth, as well as receive booster doses of the hepatitis B vaccine at 4 weeks and 24 weeks. |

| The mother-to-child transmission rate of HBV | Compare the difference in HBV mother-to-infant transmission rates between pregnant women receiving TAF treatment and vaccinating their infants with hepatitis B vaccine and HBIg, and those receiving TDF treatment with the same vaccination for their infants. Here, the mother-to-infant transmission rate is defined as the proportion of infants in the experimental group who have serum HBV DNA >20 IU/mL and are HBsAg positive at 28 weeks of age among all live births. | 28 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Congenital defects/malformations in infants | Determine the incidence of congenital defects/malformations in infants born to mothers treated with TAF and TDF during the perinatal period, and then conduct a comparative analysis of these data. | 28 weeks |
| The percentage of mothers in each group of pregnant women with HBV DNA below 200,000 IU/mL |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| HBV DNA levels below 20 IU/mL | Summarize the percentage difference in HBV DNA levels below 20 IU/mL during delivery between the two groups of pregnant women. | 12 weeks |
| Placental abnormalities | Evaluate and compare the percentage of mothers with placental abnormalities in the two groups. |

| TDF group | Drug | The mother will start receiving TDF treatment (300 mg tablet taken orally once daily) at 28 weeks of pregnancy until delivery. After that, mothers without treatment indications will be randomly assigned to two subgroups: one subgroup will stop treatment, while the other subgroup will receive an additional 12 weeks of TDF treatment. Infants will be vaccinated with the hepatitis B vaccine and HBIG within 12 hours after birth, as well as receive booster doses of the hepatitis B vaccine at 4 weeks and 24 weeks. |

The percentage of mothers in each group of pregnant women with HBV DNA below 200,000 IU/mL at the time of delivery will be used as a key secondary efficacy endpoint to evaluate the extent of HBV DNA reduction in mothers receiving TDF/TAF treatment. |
| 12 weeks |
| The percentage of mothers who experienced HBeAg/HBsAg clearance or seroconversion | The percentage of mothers who experienced HBeAg/HBsAg clearance or seroconversion during the study period was used as a secondary efficacy endpoint, and comparisons were made between the two groups. | 36 weeks |
| ALT levels during or after TDF/TAF treatment | Observe the proportion of mothers with elevated ALT levels during or after TDF/TAF treatment (i.e., levels 5.1 to 10 times the upper limit of normal) or severe ALT elevation (levels more than 10 times the upper limit of normal), and conduct stratified and subgroup analyses after discontinuation of TDF/TAF (at delivery or at 12 weeks postpartum). | 36 weeks |
| Renal function parameters of pregnant women | Summarize the percentage changes in renal function parameters (especially the decline in renal function indicators) of pregnant women in each group during and after antiviral treatment, and analyze the differences between the two groups. | 36 weeks |
| Adverse events (including obstetric complications and laboratory abnormalities) | Summarize the percentage of mothers or infants experiencing adverse events (including obstetric complications and laboratory abnormalities) during the comparative study period, and analyze the differences between the two groups. | 36 weeks |
| Proportion of two groups that discontinued treatment due to adverse events | Summarize the comparison of the proportion of two groups that discontinued treatment due to adverse events, and evaluate the differences in tolerance and medication adherence to TDF/TAF therapy. | 36 weeks |
| Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) indicators of pregnant women | Use the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) to elucidate the differences in quality of life between pregnant women treated with Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) and those receiving Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF).The SF-36 scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating a better quality of life. | 36 weeks |
| Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) indicators of pregnant women | Use he Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire (CLDQ) to elucidate the differences in quality of life between pregnant women treated with Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) and those receiving Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF). The CLDQ is scored between 29 and 203, where increased scores reflect improved well-being. | 36 weeks |
| Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) indicators of pregnant women | Use Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) to elucidate the differences in quality of life between pregnant women treated with Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) and those receiving Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF). The PHQ-9 is scored from 0 to 27, with lower scores signifying a higher quality of life. | 36 weeks |
