HCV G1 : 8 weeks Standard of Care 444 Follow Guidelines HCV Decompensated Liver Disease 44 Dramatic Change!! HCV Renal Failure 4 New effective Therapy (MRK) HCV HBV Next Phase of DAA s Long term treatment with NA * Global impact 44 Safety of long- term treatment
Background:! LDV/SOF (Harvoni) : Phase 3 trial : ION- 3 study showed that 8 weeks was non- inferior to 12 weeks in naïve GT1 patients without cirrhosis and Viral load of <6 million IU/mL.! In Ontario reimbursed accordingly (Public and Private) Aim:! Outcomes (SVR4) using LDV/SOF used for 8 weeks in real world clinical practice.
Methods:! 8 weeks of LDV/SOF in a single centre in Germany.! Report includes SVR4 for those reaching that time point. Results:! 45 had 8w treatment with LDV/SOF. No patient had ribavirin.! The genotype distribution was 49%, 47% GT1a, GT1b (2pts G4)! The METAVIR stage distribution! 37% (F0), 33% (F1), 24% (F2) 5% (F3)! No patient had HCV RNA 6 million IU/mL.! No discontinuations or relevant Adverse Drug Reactions! 42/42 (100%) SVR4, 3 not reached SVR4 timepoint
German Real- World LDV/SOF for 8 weeks in NC with HCV RNA < 6M, primarily TN GT 1 Effectiveness and Safety Virologic Response Safety Results Total cohort n=45 SVR4 N=42* Any AEs (Grades 3 & 4), n (%) 1 (2.2) Headache, n (%) 1 (2.2) AE related to LDV/SOF, n (%) 1 (2.2) AE leading to D/C, n (%) 0 Deaths, n (%) 0 *3 patients had no SVR4 data available at time of analysis LDV/SOF for 8 weeks resulted in high rates of SVR4 and was safe and well tolerated Buggisch, EASL, 2015, LP32
Conclusions:! 42/42 SVR- 4 (100%).! For those naïve, non- cirrhotic G1, <6million VL 8 weeks of Harvoni is suggested. Take Home:! Use 8 weeks in those that satisfy criteria.
Background:! Oral nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) suppress HBV and reduce hepatic events in HBV patients.! Early data suggest nucleotide analogues (Adefovir and Tenofovir) may cause renal and bone toxicity.! Those observations were based on small number of patients and heterogeneous populations (HIV).! Long- term data on these hard clinical outcomes are lacking.
Aim:! Cohort study using database which captures medical services at both in- patient and out- patient settings for 70 80% of the Hong Kong citizens.! Identified HBV patients diagnosed between 2000 and 2012.! Tracked relevant diagnoses, with special focus on renal failure and fracture, procedures, concomitant drugs, and laboratory parameters.! The primary outcome was the incidence of chronic renal failure and fractures.! A 3- year analysis, with follow- up up to 7 years, was used to evaluate the relative risk of primary outcome in patients with or without NA treatment.
Results:! 53,500 patients with HBV. 46,454 untreated and 7,046 treated with NA.! Median follow- up of 4.9 years
Results:! After propensity score weighting, NA therapy did not increase the risk of the events! Hazard ratios [HR] ranged from 0.79 to 1.31;! P values ranged from 0.225 to 0.887! Exposure to nucleotide analogues, compared with nucleoside analogues was no different except hip fracture! HR = 4.71, 95% confidence interval 1.67 13.3, P=0.003)! Similar findings were observed when comparing nucleotide analogues with no treatment.! Male gender and age 50 years were associated with these events.
Conclusions:! NA treatment (Tenofovir/Adefovir) does not increase the risk of renal and bone events in general.! Risk of hip fracture may be real (men over 50 years), but the overall event rate is low (17 / 7,000 over 5 years) (0.2%). Take Home:! No need to worry about renal nor bone issues with Tenofovir / Adefovir (NA).
