Therapeutic management and evolution of chronic hepatitis B: does HIV still have an impact? The EPIB 2012 study
EA Pôle MERS Hors CT hors EJ; International audience; Background & Aims: To compare the management of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and its evolution over time in currently followed HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients. Methods: A total of 709 consecutive patients with past or present positive HBs antigenemia seen in October 2012 in 19 French participating centres were included. The data were retrospectively collected from the first visit onwards through standardized questionnaires. Results: Chronic hepatitis B was less often assessed in the 299 HIV-positive patients, who were older, more likely to be male, excessive alcohol drinkers and HBe antigen-, HCV- and HDV-positive. They were also fol…
Triple therapy in treatment-experienced patients with HCV-cirrhosis in a multicentre cohort of the French Early Access Programme (ANRS CO20-CUPIC) – NCT01514890
International audience; Background & AimsIn phase III trials, the safety profile of triple therapy (pegylated interferon/ribavirin with boceprevir or telaprevir) seems to be similar in HCV treatment-experienced cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic patients, but few cirrhotics were included. We report the week 16 safety and efficacy analysis in a cohort of compensated cirrhotics treated in the French Early Access Programme.Methods674 genotype 1 patients, prospectively included, received 48 weeks of triple therapy. The analysis is restricted to 497 patients reaching week 16.ResultsA high incidence of serious adverse events (40.0%), and of death and severe complications (severe infection or hepatic dec…
Phase III, Multicenter Open-Label Study to Investigate the Efficacy of Elbasvir and Grazoprevir Fixed-Dose Combination for Eight Weeks in Treatment-Naïve, HCV GT1b-Infected Patients, with Non-Severe Fibrosis
Background: Genotype 1b is the most common HCV genotype worldwide, accounting for the largest proportion of infections in Europe, Russia, Latin America and Asia. Reducing treatment duration can improve adherence, reduce drug exposure and cost. Accordingly, we evaluated the efficacy of eight weeks fixed dose combination of grazoprevir-elbasvir in treatment-naive patients, with non-severe fibrosis. Methods: HCV mono-infected and treatment naive patients with non-severe fibrosis (Fibroscan®<9·5kPa and Fibrotest®<0·59) were enrolled in a study which included 117 patients. Genotyping by sequencing identified five patients with non-1b genotype (two GT1a, one GT1h, one GT1e and one GT1l). Thus, we…
