3 Case Studies/Questions A 6-year-old woman 4 weeks status-post OLT for HCV cirrhosis; SVR pre-treatment; sudden elevation of LFTs (3X) Biopsy versus empiric treatment of rejection? Please Select Your Approach 1. Biopsy 2. Empiric treatment of rejection Live Polling Results 1% 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % 82% Biopsy 18% Empiric treatment of rejection
4 Case Studies/Questions A 56-year-old man with cirrhosis complicated by HCC within Milan; HCV+ serologically but SVR. Liver offer: a 7-year-old, otherwise good donor, HCV- Accept offer? Would you accept a liver offer of a 7-year-old, otherwise good donor, HCV? 1. Yes 2. No Live Polling Results 1% 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % 82% Yes 18% No

6 Back in the Day HCV as an important indication for transplantation Natural history with and without Tx DDLT versus LDLT Waiting for the next new drug HCV recurrence and outcomes Impact on outcomes and need for retreatment Tolerability of HCV therapies both before and after treatment Timing, efficacy, and effectiveness of HCV therapies Use of HCV+ donors Use of older donors (>4) Today Where Tomorrow Begins Treatment options perfection is the enemy of good with respect to available organs Timing of treatment Before makes intuitive sense, but so does after Making our waitlists HCV- has disadvantaged HCV+/- recipients because we can no longer use HCV+ donors Management of post-tx Maintenance immunosuppression Biopsy vs empiric Rx for elevated LFTs Ethical concerns should we allocate HCV+ organs to all HCV- recipients (including HCV+/-) just because we have an effective treatment? Cost Questions for Tomorrow Should we develop criteria for who gets treated before and who gets treated after Tx? What about living donors who are HCV+/-? Will patients who meet criteria for Tx get better with HCV treatment? Will the risk of HCC remain the same even with effective treatment?
7 Closing Comments We should recognize and applaud the development of these HCV treatments that now cause us to ask these questions. Truly the only true cure, other than a vaccine, that I have witnessed in >25 years in practice. Thank you. HCV Pharmacotherapy: Efficacy in the Pre- and Post-transplant Settings Steven L. Flamm, MD Chief, Liver Transplantation Professor of Medicine and Surgery Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Chicago, IL Clinical Considerations in the Pre-transplant Setting Patients with decompensated cirrhosis have differential metabolism of drugs/metabolites that could affect efficacy and toxicity. Patients with decompensated disease are more susceptible to renal failure; this could cause differential metabolism of drugs/metabolites that could affect efficacy and toxicity. Treatment of patients may affect organ availability, as patients would NOT be eligible for HCV+ organs. Patients with decompensated disease may improve slightly, lowering the MELD score and thereby lowering priority for liver allocation.

Summary: Management of HCV in Decompensated Cirrhosis Patients with decompensated liver disease generally tolerate current regimens well, and SVR rates approach the rates observed in patients with compensated cirrhosis. The regimens are generally well tolerated in the decompensated population. New regimens will likely be available in the near future to add to our armamentarium for HCV. Note: Daclatasvir was approved on July 24, 215 for use with sofosbuvir for treatment of chronic HCV genotype 3 infection Ribavirin is still used in current regimens; it is reasonably well tolerated, but hemoglobin must be monitored carefully and renal dysfunction can be problematic.

12 Clinical Considerations: Post-transplant Setting Post-liver transplantation patients with HCV recurrence may have an aggressive natural history with fibrosing cholestatic hepatitis or, more commonly, a relatively rapid progression to cirrhosis. The leading cause of mortality in the post-transplantation setting for HCV is recurrent HCV; hence, eradication of HCV in this population is very important. Post-liver transplantation patients are more susceptible to renal insufficiency; this could cause differential metabolism of drugs/ metabolites that could affect efficacy and toxicity ribavirin may be problematic. Drug-drug interactions with immunosuppression agents (particularly calcineurin inhibitors) may affect dosing of anti-viral agents and the other agent. Recommendations for Recurrent HCV Infection Post-liver Transplantation: HCV Genotype 1 Recommended regimen for treatment-naïve and -experienced patients with HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection in the allograft, including compensated cirrhosis Alternative regimen for treatment-naive patients with HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection in the allograft with compensated liver disease who are RBV intolerant or ineligible. Alternative regimen for patients with HCV genotype 1 in the allograft, including compensated cirrhosis. Alternative regimen for patients with HCV genotype 1 in the allograft, including early (Metavir fibrosis stage F-F2) recurrence. Daily fixed-dose combination of ledipasvir (9 mg)/sofosbuvir (4 mg) with weight-based RBV (1 mg [<75 kg] to 12 mg [ 75 kg]) for 12 weeks Daily fixed-dose combination of ledipasvir (9 mg)/sofosbuvir (4 mg) for 24 weeks Daily sofosbuvir (4 mg) plus simeprevir (15 mg) with or without weight-based RBV (1 mg [<75 kg] to 12 mg [>75 kg]) for 12 weeks Daily fixed-dose combination of paritaprevir (15 mg)/ritonavir (1 mg)/ombitasvir (25 mg) plus twice-daily dosed dasabuvir (25 mg) and weight-based RBV (1 mg [<75 kg] to 12 mg [>75 mg]) for 24 weeks AASLD/IDSA/IAS USA: Recommendations for testing, managing, and treating hepatitis C.

16 Summary Treatment of patients with current regimens post-liver transplantation is now possible, with very high expected SVR rates. Drug-drug interactions must be accounted for, particularly with protease inhibitors and calcineurin inhibitors. Renal insufficiency must also be accounted for, with appropriate dose modifications of anti-viral medications implemented.
