How Does Hilfo B Work?
Hilfo B provides potent antiviral activity through targeted delivery:
- Enhanced Cellular Uptake: More efficiently taken up by hepatocytes than TDF
- Intracellular Activation: Converted to active tenofovir diphosphate inside cells
- HBV Polymerase Inhibition: Competes with natural substrate to inhibit viral DNA synthesis
- Chain Termination: Incorporated into viral DNA causing premature chain termination
