3 Renal diseases and HBV :The challenge for the coming years Improve our ability to screen for, diagnose and treat renal insult secondary to HBV/drug induced «renal» side effects Fight against comorbidities, ageing, hypertension, obesity, toxic co-treatments (NSAID S, anti cancer drugs)

4 Estimation of Glomerular filtration rate Glomerulus and Bowman s Capsule Proximal Tubule Urine Glomerular Filtration Tubular Secretion Creatinine is a product of skeletal muscle metabolism that is primarily filtered by the glomerulus and used for estimating/measuring creatinine clearance Because a small amount of creatinine undergoes tubular secretion, creatinine clearance usually overestimates the actual GFR 1,2 Anytime muscle mass is altered, creatinine is no more an accurate marker for GRF Anytime, body composition is altered, weight is no more a good marker for muscle mass 1 Calza L.

33 2012 EASL Guidelines: Enhanced Attention To Risk Associated With Long-term Use Of NAs NAs are cleared by the kidneys, and appropriate dosing adjustments are recommended for patients with creatinine clearance <50 ml/min (A1). Therefore, all patients starting NA therapy should be tested for serum creatinine levels and estimated creatinine clearance before treatment (A1). In addition, the baseline renal risk should be assessed for all patients. High renal risk includes one or more of the following factors: decompensated cirrhosis, creatinine clearance <60 ml/min, poorly controlled hypertension, proteinuria, uncontrolled diabetes, active glomerulonephritis, concomitant nephrotoxic drugs, solid organ transplantation. Minimal rates of renal function decline have been reported with all NAs, except perhaps for telbivudine which seems to improve the creatinine clearance [144] (C1). The nephrotoxic potential seems to be higher for nucleotide analogues, particularly adefovir [145] (B1). Therefore, it seems appropriate for now to monitor for adverse renal effects with serum creatinine (estimated creatinine clearance) and serum phosphate levels during adefovir or tenofovir therapy in all CHB patients and with serum creatinine levels (estimated creatinine clearance) during nucleoside analogue therapy in CHB patients at high renal risk (C1).
