Chronic Hepatitis Delta Virus Infection Overview

Chronic hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infection is the most severe form of chronic viral hepatitis and occurs only in people with hepatitis B virus (HBV), which HDV requires for replication. Compared with HBV alone, chronic HDV can accelerate liver damage and increase the risk of fibrosis, cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The disease may remain clinically silent for years, making timely testing and long-term monitoring important. Diagnosis combines anti-HDV serology with HDV RNA testing to confirm active infection, although access to and standardization of molecular testing remain challenges. Treatment historically relied on pegylated interferon, limited by tolerability, contraindications, and variable response. The landscape is evolving with bulevirtide, an HDV entry inhibitor approved in Europe for eligible patients with compensated liver disease, while other agents and combinations remain under investigation. HBV treatment should be provided when clinically indicated, although HBV antivirals do not directly suppress HDV. For healthcare leaders, HDV highlights the importance of integrated screening, prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and long-term liver surveillance, with HBV vaccination remaining the key strategy for preventing HDV infection.
