Dear Sir / Madam,

this question has a obvious answer, he is almost 2 years on tenofovir (Tenohep) so hbvdna is undetectable from a long time and this makes no difference to hbv clearance or is able to predict anything

the only useful test is hbsag quantitative before treatment and now, but he did not have this test.

his tenofovir cannot cure hbv, he may only try to add peginterferon to Tenohep and see if hbsag goes down

Get the test done for HBSag in iu/ml from ILBS ( institue of liver and billary science New delhi ) . The current results of your shows it is greater than 250iu/ml but does not show the exact value . Also get the HBV DNA & fibroscan done. The fibroscan will determine the health of your liver . .

If your hbsag is less than 1000iu/ml then you have very high chances of clearing the virus with interferon treatment .
