1 1 Autoimmune Hepatitis in Clinical Practice Atif Zaman, MD MPH Professor of Medicine Senior Associate Dean for Clinical and Faculty Affairs School of Medicine Oregon Health & Science University Disclosure Nothing to disclose Objectivces Delineate the hepatic manifestations of various autoimmune diseases Outline the diagnostic approach to a patient with autoimmune hepatic diseases Discuss the management approach to autoimmune hepatic diseases
2 2 Intermittently progressive inflammatory liver disease of presumed autoimmune etiology High gamma globulins, autoantibodies Predominately periportal hepatitis Usually responds favorably to corticosteroids Pathogenesis Most of the evidence supports a central role for an alteration in T cell function in the pathogenesis of AIH although abnormalities in B cell function also may be important. Implicit in this loss of tolerance is an escape from normal suppression of selfreactive T cells, which results in ongoing inflammation and necrosis. Pathogenesis Another hypothesis: environmental trigger in a genetically predisposed individual. The exact relationships between the genes and the autoimmune process remain largely undefined at the molecular level, they are thought to involve the antigen, the major histocompatibility complex, and the T cell receptor
3 3 Pathogenesis Form a ternary complex in which short segments called complementary determining regions (CDR) identify and contact the antigen-mhc complex Viruses, drugs, herbs, and immunizations have been suggested as triggering agents Contrasting Features of Viral and Contrasting Features of Viral and Viral Autoimmune Prevalence: High, >1% in many Low, ~0.02% countries Diagnostic Tests: Highly specific No single screening and pathognomonic confirmatory tests marker Therapy: Subject of ongoing, Based on RCT large, multicenter completed > 30 yrs trials ago! Natural History of Untreated Autoimmune Hepatitis 100 Natural History of Untreated 80 % Survival Years of follow-up Kirk AP, Jain S, Pocock S, Thomas HC & Sherlock S, Gut, 1980, 21:78

7 7 Criteria for Definite Criteria for Definite Not all cases are straight-forward Elevated AST, ALT, IgG ANA, SMA or anti-lkm-1 1:80 ( 1:20 in children) Liver biopsy showing interface hepatitis with no biliary lesions, granulomas, or prominent steatosis Absence of: Genetic liver disease HCV RNA HBV DNA, IgM anti-hav Alcohol, drugs, toxins International Group Scoring System: Patient History International Group Scoring System: Patient History Favor AIH Favor other diagnosis Gender Female (+2) Male (0) Alcohol < 25 g/d (+2) > 60 g/d ( 2) Hepatotoxic drugs None (+1) Present (-4) Other autoimmune Present (+2) None (0) diseases International Group Scoring System: Biochemistries International Group Scoring System: Biochemistries Favor AIH Favor other diagnosis Alkaline phosphatase < 1.5 (+2) > 3.0 (-2) elevation: ALT elevation Serum globulins, > 2 x normal (+3) Normal (0) globulin or IgG >1.5-2 x normal (+2) > x normal (+1)

9 9 - Criteria Interpretation of International Group Score Interpretation of International Autoimmune Hepatitis Group Score Score Interpretation Pre-therapy: >15 Definite AIH Probable AIH Post-therapy: >17 Definite AIH Probable AIH A Simplified Criteria Autoantibodies: assign one point if the ANA or ASMA are 1:40 OR assign two points if the ANA or ASMA are 1:80 (OR if the LKM 1:40 OR if the SLA is positive). IgG: assign one point if the IgG is > the upper limit of normal OR assign two points if the IgG is >1.10 times the upper limit of normal. Liver histology (evidence of hepatitis is a mandatory condition): assign one point if the histological features are compatible with autoimmune hepatitis OR two points if the histological features are typical of autoimmune hepatitis. Absence of viral hepatitis: assign two points if viral hepatitis has been excluded. A probable diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis is made if the total points are six, while a definite diagnosis is made if the total points are seven. Indications for Treatment Based on the results of Indications for Treatment Absolute Relative None AST 10x normal Symptoms No symptoms AST 5x normal AST < 5x normal Inactive and -globulin -globulin cirrhosis 2x normal < 2x normal Bridging necrosis Interface Portal hepatitis hepatitis AASLD Practice Guidelines, Hepatology 2002, 36:479

12 12 Pitfalls in Therapy of AIH Pitfalls in Therapy of AIH Inadequate initial therapy (histological remission lags behind biochemical remission) Failure to consider steroid-sparing (or steroid free) regimens Initiation of therapy without appropriate indication (mild hepatitis, inactive cirrhosis, wrong disease) Persistent ( lifelong ) therapy in those in first complete remission with benign follow-up biopsies Liver Transplantation Liver Transplantation Overall 5-year survival rates 80-90% Increased frequency of acute allograft rejection AIH recurrence in 30-40% Surveillance liver biopsies may be warranted Manage with corticosteroids
