    Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is associated with a higher risk of nephrotoxicity compared with entecavir (ETV) or tenofovir alafenamide (TAF). One-fifth of transplant recipients develop chronic kidney disease (CKD) within 5 years after transplantation, contributed by the use of nephrotoxic immunosuppressive medications. Prior studies conducted in the nontransplant setting reported superior renal safety in TAF compared with TDF but data in liver transplant (LT) recipients have so far been limited to small case series. Therefore, the goals of this study were to examine changes in renal function in a large multicenter cohort of LT recipients with chronic hepatitis B who were treated with TAF, TDF, or ETV for the prevention of hepatitis B virus (HBV) reinfection or reactivation from receipt of a positive HBV core antibody graft.
