Antiviral therapy for recurrent hepatitis C after liver transplantation: sustained virologic response is related to genotype 2/3 and response at week 12
OBJECTIVESRecurrent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection after liver transplantation (LT) is a major cause of transplant failure in HCV-positive patients.

description | OBJECTIVESRecurrent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection after liver transplantation (LT) is a major cause of transplant failure in HCV-positive patients. We retrospectively assessed the efficacy and safety of antiviral therapy and determined the factors influencing sustained virologic response (SVR) in LT recipients.
METHODSBetween 1998 and 2007, we treated 36 LT recipients for hepatitis C cirrhosis and subsequent HCV recurrence (27 genotype 1 and 9 genotypes 2/3) with pegylated interferon α-2a (180 μg/week), pegylated interferon α-2b (1.5 μg/kg per week), or standard interferon α-2b (3 MIU 3X/week) plus ribavirin (600–1200 mg/day) for 48 weeks.
RESULTSSVR was achieved in seven of 27 (26%) of genotype 1 patients versus nine of nine (100%) genotype 2/3 patients (P=0.0001). Early virologic response at week 12 was associated with permanent viral clearance. Side effects included cytopenia and acute hearing loss, but rate of therapy withdrawal and dose reduction was low.
CONCLUSIONCombination therapy in patients with HCV reinfection after LT yields an excellent SVR rate in genotype 2/3 patients, but remains unsatisfactory in genotype 1 patients. Virologic response at week 12 (early virologic response) can determine whether therapy should be continued or not. |
