The past decade has seen advances in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C infection. Therapy with interferon alpha was disappointing,
with only 15% of patients achieving longterm viral clearance. Combination therapy with interferon alpha and ribavirin therapy
more than doubled sustained virologic response (SVR) rates. The pegylated interferons are a recent development that have improved
the outlook for patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV). Pegylated interferons are produced by the binding of polyethylene
glycol to interferon alpha, which results in a compound with improved pharmacokinetic properties with increased efficacy.
Combination therapy with pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin is the optimal treatment for chronic HCV infection. Up to
80% of patients with genotype 2/3 infection and up to 50% of patients with genotype 1 infection achieve SVR with treatment.
For the first time, the majority of patients with chronic HCV who are treated can anticipate a long-term cure. 相似文献

Achieving an antiviral response at a reasonable cost is a challenge in the treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis C.
A previous study indicated that consensus interferon with ribavirin had promising activity against hepatitis C virus (HCV)
genotype 1. The objective of this study was to determine the virologic response with consensus interferon or pegylated interferon
α-2b plus weight-ribavirin in patients chronically infected with HCV genotype 1. Intention-to-treat analysis showed response
in 37% and 41% of subjects treated with consensus interferon/ribavirin or pegylated interferon/ribavirin, respectively, with
response rates of 42% and 44% observed in analysis of the per-protocol population, not a significant difference. Tolerability
of the two treatment regimens was similar. In conclusion, both treatment regimens were safe and gave a similar antiviral response.
It is possible that if consensus interferon is administered daily rather than three times weekly, eradication of HCV could
be achieved in a larger proportion of patients infected with HCV genotype 1. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an important cause of liver disease in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. OBJECTIVE: To assess the cost-effectiveness of alternative management strategies for chronic HCV in co-infected patients with moderate hepatitis. METHODS: A state-transition model was used to simulate a cohort of HIV-infected patients with a mean CD4 cell count of 350 cells/ micro L and moderate chronic hepatitis C stratified by genotype. Strategies included interferon alfa (48 weeks), pegylated interferon alfa (48 weeks), interferon alfa and ribavirin (24 and 48 weeks), pegylated interferon alfa and ribavirin (48 weeks), and no treatment. Outcomes included life expectancy, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios. RESULTS: Treatment for moderate chronic HCV with combination therapy using an interferon-based regimen reduced the incidence of cirrhosis and provided gains in quality-adjusted life expectancy ranging from 6.2 to 13.9 months, depending on genotype. Regardless of genotype, the cost-effectiveness of interferon alfa and ribavirin for patients with moderate hepatitis was lower than $50 000 per QALY vs the next best strategy. With genotype 1, pegylated interferon alfa (vs interferon alfa) and ribavirin therapy provided an additional 1.6 quality-adjusted life-months for $40 000 per QALY. Because treatment is more effective with non-1 genotypes, pegylated interferon (vs interferon alfa) and ribavirin provided only 3 additional quality-adjusted life-months for $105 300 per QALY. For patients who were intolerant of ribavirin, monotherapy with pegylated interferon was always the most cost-effective option. CONCLUSIONS: Combination therapy for moderate hepatitis in coinfected patients will increase quality-adjusted life expectancy and have a cost-effectiveness ratio comparable to that of other well-accepted clinical interventions. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The effect of conventional interferon-based therapy of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) dual infection is controversial. Yet, no studies have been carried out into pegylated interferon treatment for chronic HBV/HCV coinfection. We aimed to evaluate the response rate and side effects of conventional or pegylated interferon combined with ribavirin on chronic HBV/HCV coinfection therapy. METHODS: The study included 36 chronic hepatitis patients (M/F: 28/8, mean age 47+/-12 years) who were positive for HBsAg and anti-HCV. They were tested for the presence of HBV-DNA by hybridisation assay, and the samples giving negative results were retested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). All patients were tested for HCV-RNA using PCR, and the HCV genotype was determined. RESULTS: Nineteen patients were given standard interferon either alone or in combination with ribavirin, whereas 17 were given pegylated interferon and ribavirin combination therapy. None of the patients had HBV-DNA positivity; however, all had HCV-RNA detectable by PCR. All the patients had HCV genotype 1b. The mean alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels were 118+/-65 U/l and 90+/-95 U/l respectively. Five patients in each group discontinued the treatment due to side effects. Only two patients (one from each group) reached sustained virological response. CONCLUSION: Neither pegylated nor conventional interferon based regimes were effective for HBV/HCV coinfection, in which the dominant virus was HCV. Pegylated interferon and ribavirin therapy was not superior to conventional interferon based regimes in the treatment of HBV/HCV coinfection. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of pegylated interferon in Iranian chronic hepatitis C patients in relation to interferon-λ(IFNL) polymorphisms. METHODS: This study enrolled patients with chronic hepatitis C referred to the Tehran Blood Transfusion Hepatitis Clinic in 2011. Patients were included in the study if they had no concomitant hepatic illness, were negative for human immunodeficiency virus antibodies, and had no prior history of treatment with any type ofpegylated interferon. Patients were treated with 180 μg pegylated interferon alpha-2a(Pegaferon#174;) weekly and 800-1200 mg ribavirin daily for 24 or 48 wk depending on weight and hepatitis C virus(HCV) genotype. Blood samples were collected from patients to obtain DNA for determination of IFNL rs12979860 and rs8099917 polymorphisms. The virologic response in patients was then evaluated and compared between the different IFNL genotypes.RESULTS: A total of 152 patients with a mean age of 41.9 ± 10.0 years were included in the study, of which 141/152 were men(92.8%). The most frequent HCV genotype was type-1, infecting 93/152(61.2%) patients. Sustained virologic response(SVR) was achieved in 81.9% of patients with HCV genotype-1 and 91.1% of patients with HCV genotype-3. Treatment success was achieved in 91.2%(52/57) of patients with the IFNL rs12979860 CC genotype and 82.1%(78/95) in those with other genotypes. Similar treatment response rates were also observed in patients with rs8099917 TT(39/45; 86.7%) and non-TT(61/68; 89.7%) genotypes. Univariate analyses identified the following factors which influenced treatment response for inclusion in a multivariate analysis: age, HCV RNA level, stage of liver fibrosis, rs12979860 CC genotype, and aspartate transaminase level. A logistic regression analysis revealed that only the rs12979860 CC genotype was significantly associated with achievement of SVR(OR = 6.2; 95%CI: 1.2-31.9; P = 0.03).CONCLUSION: The rs12979860 CC genotype was associated with SVR in patients receiving pegylated interferon plus ribavirin, however, the SVR rate in other rs12979860 genotypes was also relatively high. 相似文献

Effect of ribavirin in genotype 1 patients with hepatitis C responding to pegylated interferon alfa-2a plus ribavirin 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Pegylated interferon alfa-ribavirin combination is the standard treatment for chronic hepatitis C, but the mechanisms by which ribavirin enhances the rate of sustained hepatitis C virus (HCV) eradication remain unknown. We aimed to investigate the role of ribavirin in HCV clearance during therapy and to evaluate the consequences of ribavirin discontinuation in patients infected with genotype 1 hepatitis C who cleared HCV RNA at week 24. METHODS: A total of 516 patients were treated with pegylated interferon alfa-2a, 180 microg/wk, plus ribavirin, 800 mg/day. Seventy percent were RNA negative at week 24. They were randomized to continue with the combination or receive pegylated interferon alone. RESULTS: Responders at week 24 who stopped ribavirin had a significantly higher rate of breakthroughs during, and relapses after, therapy (sustained virologic response, 52.8% vs 68.2%; P = .004), but their side-effect profile and quality of life tended to improve. Multiple logistic regression analysis in the pegylated interferon alfa monotherapy group allowed identification of responders at week 24 who could stop ribavirin without losing their chance of a sustained virologic response, based on baseline viral load and age. Forty-eight weeks of ribavirin may not be needed when HCV RNA is undetectable at week 2. CONCLUSIONS: We made 3 conclusions from this study. First, ribavirin primarily acts by sustaining the virologic response to pegylated interferon alfa; second, ribavirin must be administered for the full treatment duration in most genotype 1-infected patients who respond; third, baseline parameters may help identify patients who could discontinue ribavirin or reduce the dose without losing their chance of success. 相似文献

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype is an important predictive outcome parameter for pegylated interferon plus ribavirin therapy. Most published therapeutic trials to date have enrolled mainly patients with HCV genotypes 1, 2 and 3. Limited studies have focused on genotype 4 patients, who have had a poor representation in pivotal trials. Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with standard dose pegylated interferon alfa-2a in combination with weight-based ribavirin in patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 4. In this prospective observational study, 198 patients with HCV-4 were included in this study from February 2004 to August 2005,188 patients who received at least 1 dose of drugs were included in the ITT analysis and they were treated with pegylated interferon alfa-2a and ribavirin for 48 weeks. Baseline and demographic characteristics, response to treatment at weeks 12, 48 and 72, and the nature and frequency of adverse effects were analyzed. Virological response at week 12 was achieved in 144 patients (76.6%). Virological response at the end of treatment was present in 110 patients (58.5%). At week 72, 99 patients presented SVR (52.7%). The reported adverse events were similar to those found in the literature for treatments of similar dose and duration. In conclusion, combined treatment with pegylated interferon alfa-2a and ribavirin was well tolerated and effective in chronic hepatitis C genotype 4, yielding response rates between those reported for genotype 1 and those of genotypes 2-3. 相似文献

The treatment strategies used in Taiwan for patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) have evolved from conventional interferon monotherapy, consensus interferon therapy, conventional interferon/ribavirinand to pegylated interferon/ribavirin combination therapy. In the past two decades, the sustained virological response (SVR) rate in Taiwanese patients improved from 6 to 75-90 %. By following genotype-guided therapy, an SVR rate of 75-80 % and 85-95 % could be achieved in Taiwanese patients with HCV-1 and HCV-2 infections, respectively. The study of HCV viral kinetics has facilitated studies in Taiwan regarding response-guided therapy with tailored regimens. The majority of Taiwanese patients can be treated successfully with pegylated interferon/ribavirin. The application of IL-28B genetic tests and the insight provided by the viral kinetics might aid in selecting the best candidates for treatment with direct antivirals in the near future in Taiwan. 相似文献

Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains an important cause of liver disease in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and conversely, renal failure has a significant impact on morbidity and mortality throughout the natural history of chronic HCV and its treatment. With improved awareness within dialysis units of the potential for spread and the institution of preventative measures, the prevalence of HCV infection in the hemodialysis-dependent population has continued to decline since 1995. Use of HCV (+) donor kidneys is associated with an increase in the prevalence of liver disease, but when compared with continued hemodialysis, transplantation using these kidneys is associated with improved survival. Overall, survival in patients with chronic HCV infection appears to be better after renal transplantation when compared with maintenance hemodialysis, and transplant should be considered for these patients. Data support the use of interferon and the improved efficacy of pegylated interferon formulations for treatment of chronic HCV infection in ESRD patients, although tolerability continues to be troublesome. The newest and most promising data regarding the treatment of HCV in ESRD involve the combination of reduced dose ribavirin with interferon or pegylated interferon suggesting similar enhancements in sustained virologic response (SVR) as seen in non-ESRD patients, but caution is advised, as all studies to date used ribavirin plasma concentration monitoring in patient with ESRD. Finally, with regard to postrenal transplant treatment of HCV infection, there is no evidence to support treatment with interferon-based therapy and pretransplant treatment remains the best option whenever possible. 相似文献
