Immunotherapy against hepatitis B
News
Hepatitis B is a viral infection of the liver that can lead to cancer and organ failure. Antiviral therapies can suppress the infection, but a functional cure is rare. Novel immunotherapies may lead to an actual cure more often. However, it is still unclear which patients benefit most from these new therapies. Researchers at the Centre for Individualised Infection Medicine (CiiM), a joint institution of the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) and the Hannover Medical School (MHH), as well as the MHH and the German Center for Infection Research (DZIF), have now identified a biomarker that intends to enable predictions about the success of the therapy. The results were published in the scientific journal Gut.

Ahead of the “World Antimicrobial Awareness Week” (November 18-24) 20 national and international organizations from academia, healthcare and the pharmaceutical industry appealed today to G7 governments to step up efforts to tackle the problem of growing antibiotic resistance. Their "Joint Statement on Strengthening the Antibiotic R&D Pipeline by Rewarding Innovation" stresses that only an approach involving both the public and private sectors is likely to succeed. The Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) is a member of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres and the German Center for Infection Research (DZIF), which both signed the statement.
