13. Extrahepatic manifestations of chronic HCV

1997). Further possible pathomechanisms of glomerular injury encompass
formation of glomerular autoantibodies, glomerular impairment due to
chronic hepatic injury, or IgM overproduction with consecutive glomerular
IgM deposition as a result of HCV-triggered cryoglobulinaemia type II. GN
prevalence in HCV patients is estimated at 1.4% and is comparably high due
to its prevalence among blood donors (Paydas 1996).
HCV-induced GN has mostly a benign prognosis (Daghestani 1999).
10-15% of patients with nephritic syndrome experience spontaneous
complete or partial remission. Frequently persisting mild proteinuria
exhibits no tendency to progression. It is estimated that only approximately
15% of the patients with HCV-related GN develop terminal renal failure
requiring dialysis (Tarantino 1995). Nevertheless, presence of kidney
impairment is considered to be a negative prognostic factor for long-term
survival (Ferri 2004).
Patients with HCV-related GN should be primarily treated with direct
acting antivirals. In cases of mild renal impair ment, sustained viral response
normally leads to amelioration of proteinuria or even full remission of GN.
With high baseline viremia and advanced renal insuiciency, antiviral
therapy is subject to certain limitations (Sabry 2002). Despite amelioration
of proteinuria achieved ater antiviral therapy, signiicant improvement
of renal function is oten lacking (Alric 2004). Ribavirin dosage must be
cautiously adjusted to glomerular iltration rate (GFR), in order to mainly
prevent ribavirin accumulation with consecutive hemolytic anemia
(Fabrizi 2008). RBV-induced hemolytic anemia was eiciently treated by
administration of erythropoietin and erythrocyte concentrates (van Leusen
2008). As determination of RBV blood levels is not an established laboratory
procedure, implementation of such a therapeutic approach in clinical
routine remains arduous. Renal impairment was observed as an adverse
event associated with the use of telaprevir and boceprevir (Mauss 2014). In
patients with severe renal insuiciency (eGF <30 ml/min), data for the use
of simeprevir, ledipasvir, sofosbuvir and other direct acting antivirals are
emerging. Although the use of sofosbuvir is currently not recommend in
patients with eGF <30 ml/min, safety and eicacy of full dose sofosbuvir
regimen was recently shown in this population (Hundemer 2015). The 3 D
regimen, comprising of paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombitasvir + dasabuvir a s well
as the NS5A inhibitor daclatasvir have been safely administered in patients
with severe renal insuiciency (GF <30 ml/min) due to the predominant
biliary elimination of these drugs (Fabrizi 2015). The regimen of grazoprevir
plus elbasvir has been evaluated in a large cohort of 235 HCV patients with
serious renal involvement. These drugs have a renal elimination rate less
than 1%. Therefore, the 3 D regimen as well as grazoprevir plus elbasvir
are currently the only approved combination therapies in end-stage renal
disease (GF <15 ml/min) (Cacoub 2016). However, therapy with glecaprevir/
pibrentasvir is also possible and should be favoured and, if available, replace
the 3 D regimen. Data from a recent cohort of 101 HCV patients with chronic
kidney disease stage 3b, 4 or 5 treated with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir showed
an SV rate of 97% (98/101) with no virologic failure and no safety signals,
which support the use of this regimen in HCV patients with advanced and
end-stage renal disease (Lawitz 2019). Currently, grazoprevir plus elbasvir is
the recommended therapeutic regimen in HCV type 1 patients with severe or
terminal renal insuiciency (AFEF 2016).
Fulminant manifestations with impending acute renal failure can be
treated with corticosteroids, cyclosporine, and other immunosuppressive
drugs such as cyclophosphamide and eventually plasmapheresis (Garini
2007, Margin 1994). In case of simultaneous bone marrow B cell iniltration
and/or resistance to conventional therapy, application of rituximab is
indicated (Roccatello 2004). Rituximab may be used as an alternative irst
line therapy in severe renal manifestations (Roccatello 2008). Antiviral and
immunosuppressive therapy should always be supplemented with ACE
inhibitors or AT1 receptor antagonists (Kamar 2006).
Endocrine manifestations
Thyroid disease is found more commonly in patients with chronic
HCV infection than in the general population. About 13% of HCV-infected
patients have hypothyroidism and up to 25% have thyroid antibodies.
Thyroid disease is found to be one of the most common endocrine disorders
in chronic HCV infection (Antonelli 2004). The hypothesis of chronic
immune system stimulation in patients with MC who also presented
autoimmune thyroiditis is underlined by the elevated levels of CXCL9,
CXCL10 and CXCL11 chemokines as well as higher IL-6 levels which can
be found in these patients (Ferri 2017). In vitro experiments showed that
Hepatitis C virus is even capable of infection of human thyroid cells due to
membrane expression of the HCV receptor CD81 (Blackard 2012). There is
also evidence that IFN α may induce thyroid disease or unmask preexisting
silent thyroidopathies (Graves disease, Hashimoto thyroiditis) (Prummel
2003). Furthermore, the presence of thyroid autoantibodies increases the
risk of developing an overt thyroiditis during interferon-based therapy.
The association between chronic HCV infection and development of
insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus has been discussed in the past
(Knobler 2000, Mason 1999, Hui 2003, Mehta 2003). A meta-analysis
of retrospective and prospective studies conirms a higher risk for the
development of diabetes mellitus type II in patients with chronic HCV
infection (OR=1.68, 95% CI 1.15-2.20) (White 2008). Similar results were
reported in a recent prospective study from Taiwan with more than 21000
340 341

13. Extrahepatic manifestations of chronic HCV
https://t.me/medicina_free
participants (hazard ratio 1.53, 95% CI 1.29-1.81) (Lin 2016). Viral induction
of insulin resistance seems to be HCV-speciic, as prevalence of diabetes
mellitus in HBV-infected patients is signiicantly lower (White 2008,
Imazeki 2008). The pathomechanism of HCV-induced insulin resistance
is yet not fully understood. It has been suggested that the appearance
of insulin resistance could correlate with certain genotypes of HCV. By
altering host lipid metabolism to favour its own replication, HCV infection
leads to hepatic steatosis especially in HCV type 3 infections. Moreover, the
occurrence and severity of steatosis correlates with viral load and response
to interferon-based therapy in HCV type 3 patients (ubbia-Brandt 2001).
Furthermore, HCV-dependent upregulation of cytokine suppressor SOC-3
may be responsible for the induction of cell desensitisation towards insulin.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1α is induced
ater HCV infection, thereby upregulating gluconeogenesis and providing
a potential target for treatment (Shlomai 2012). Insulin resistance in turn
represents an independent risk factor for progression of liver ibrosis and
lower SV in patients with chronic HCV infect ion (Moucari 2008, Kawaguchi
2004). As the development of insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes mellitus
may contribute to the progression of liver disease during HCV infection,
some international guidelines recommend that antiviral treatment should
be promptly initiated in HCV infected patients with insulin resistance or
diabetes (Cacoub 2018).
A causal association is backed up by studies demonstrating that antiviral
therapy resulting in SV correlates with improved diabetic metabolic status
and partial resolution of insulin resistance (Kawaguchi 2007, Zhang 2012).
There is growing evidence that a majority of HCV-infected patients also
sufer from vitamin D deiciency. Recent clinical data show higher vitamin D
levels as an independent predictive factor of SV following antiviral therapy
(Cholongitas 2012). Because of its anti-inlamm atory and anti-ibrotic efects,
vitamin D supplementation might therefore protect against progression of
liver disease (Rahman 2013). HCV-infected patients are at a signiicantly
higher risk of developing osteoporosis and osteoporosis-associated bone
fractures. Chronic HCV infection leads to a reduction in bone density due do
imbalance in calcium and vitamin D homeostasis and a decreased synthesis
of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) (Marek 2015). Additionally, it has been
shown that bone density decreases with progression of liver ibrosis due to
HCV (Lin 2012). In another study with relatively young HCV patients (aged
40 – 60 years) without advanced ibrosis, 42% had reduced bone density and
12% osteoporosis (Lai 2015). Furthermore, a large cohort study from Taiwan
with over 10.000 HCV patients and 41.000 controls reported a 1.33-fold
increased incidence of osteoporosis in the HCV group versus controls (Chen
2015). Another study from Denmark compared the overall incidence of bone
fractures from over 12.000 HCV patients and 60.000 matched controls. HCV
patients had a 2.15-fold increased incidence of bone fractures. There was no
signiicant diference in fracture incidence between patients with active
versus successfully treated chronic hepatitis C (Hansen 2014).
Finally, a link between HCV, growth hormone (GH) insuiciency and
low insulin-like growth factor (IGF1) has been hypothesised. Reduced GH
secretion could be the result of a direct inhibitory efect of HCV infection at
the level of the pituitary or hypothalamus (Plöckinger 2007).
Cardiovascular manifestations
There is increasing evidence that chronic HCV infection may also
increase the risk for cardiovasc ular disease. Many direct and indir ect factors
which contribute to the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular
disease have been identiied, such as insulin resistance, oxidative stress,
lipopolysaccharides and proinlammatory cytokines (see Figure 4,
Adinoli 2018). A nearly 1.65-fold increase in cardiovascular disease-related
mortality was reported in a large meta-analysis of observational studies.
The risk for cerebrovascular or cardiovascular disease in HCV infection was
even 1.71-fold higher when additional risk factors like diabetes and arterial
hypertension were present (Petta 2016). Moreover, a cohort study from
Taiwan found chronic hepatitis C to be an independent predictor of stroke
(Negro 2014). Another data from a recent American study with a cohort of
1434 HCV-positive participants showed a signiicantly higher incidence of
coronary heart disease events in patients with detectable HCV RNA than in
those who were HCV RNA negative (Pothineni 2014). A 1.43-fold increased
risk of developing peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in chronically HCV
infected Taiwanese patients as compared to uninfected controls might be
suggestive that PAD can be regarded as an extrahepatic manifestation of
chronic HCV infection (Hsu YH 2015). Potential pathomechanisms might
include metabolic factors such as insulin resistance with hyperglycemia,
endothelial dysfunction and inlammation leading to damage of vessels
and instability of plaques but also other systemic processes associated with
the chronic inlammatory state and potentially leading to atherosclerosis
have to be considered (Negro 2015). In addition, chronic HCV infection is
independently associated with peripheral arterial stifness. Compared
to controls, HCV patients had increased arterial stifness with lower
compliance indices in a cohort of 221 participants (Chou 2017).
However SV in HCV infection results in an increase in total and LDL
cholesterol, which seems contradictory to the data reported above (Mauss
2017). The interaction of terminating a possibly proatherogenic chronic
infection which results in an increase of proatherogenic lipids requires
further research to draw a clinical relevant concusion.

ibrosis and compensated cirrhosis revealed a signiicant improvement in
carotid atherosclerosis measured by intima media thickness and carotid
thickening, although data about major cardiovascular outcomes under DAA
therapy are still absent (Petta 2018).A recent nationwide cohort study from
Taiwan demonstrated a signiicant reduction in the incidence of end-stage
renal disease, acute coronary syndrome and ischemic stroke in HCV treated
patients compared to untreated controls. Treated patients also showed a
signiicant improvement in non-liver death-related survival (see Figure 5,
Hsu YC 2015). The current available data show that the eradication of HCV
by DAA therapy is associated with an improvement of atherosclerosis and
metabolic conditions which may lead to the development of cardiovascular
disease at least in the short term and at early disease stages, yet further
studies are needed to clarify these results (Adinoli 2018).
Occasionally, chronic HCV infection has been seen in association
with other cardiac pathologies such as chronic myocarditis and dilated/
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Pathogenesis seems to rely on genetic
predisposition and is assumed to be immunologically triggered (Matsumori
2000).

untreated patients with chronic HCV infection B) and C) Cumulative incidence of extrahepatic
outcomes between treated and untreated HCV cohorts for end-stage renal disease and acute
coronar y syndrome (according to Hsu YC et al. 2015).
Central nervous manifestations
Numerous central nervous manifestations have been described in
association with HCV infection. Cr yoglobulinemic or non-cryoglobulinemic
vasculitis of cerebral blood vessels may be responsible for the relatively high
prevalence of both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes in young HCV positive
patients (Cacoub 1998). Transverse myelopathies leading to symmetrical
paraparesis and sensory deiciency have been observed (Aktipi 2007).
Furthermore, chronic HCV infection is associated with signiicant
impairment of quality of life. 35-68% of HCV patients sufer from chronic
fatigue, subclinical cognitive impairment and psychomotor deceleration.
Symptoms of depression are evident in 2-30% of HCV patients examined
(Perry 2008, Forton 2003, Carta 2007). Psychometric as well as
functional magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies suggest altered
neurotransmission in HCV-infected patients (Weissenborn 2006, Forton
344 345

13. Extrahepatic manifestations of chronic HCV
https://t.me/medicina_free
2001). In addition, signiicant tr yptophan deicienc y is detectable in patients
with chronic HCV infection. Deiciency of tryptophan-derived serotonin is
likely to favour an occurrence of depressive disorders. There is evidence
to suggest that antiviral therapy can lead to elevation of tryptophan blood
levels and thus contribute to amelioration of depressive symptoms in HCV
patients (Zignego 2007c).
While the aetiology of cognitive dysfunction in HCV patients is not
completely understood, it is hypothesised that the virus has a direct
neurotoxic efect by entering the CNS via the PBMCs. This may be
accompanied by an indirect neurotoxic efect via cerebral and/or systemic
inlammation, for example increased pro-inlammatory cytokines over
many years of infection. These cytokines may cross the blood-brain barrier
and contribute to cognitive disorders (Senzolo 2011). More recent studies
indicate that brain microvascular endothelial cells serve as a preferential
site of HCV tropism and replication and that alteration of the blood-brain
barrier could lead to activation of microglia and entry of inlammatory
cytokines (Fletcher 2012). Supporting new data shows evidence for the
afection of mostly memory tasks in HCV-infected children with signiicant
correlations between endogenous cytokines like IL-6 and IFN α and
cognitive dysfunction (Abu Faddan 2014).
Signiicant improvements of mental health and central nervous
manifestations (i.e. fatigue and health related quality of life) have been
consistently demonstrated during interferon-free DAA-based regimens
(Younossi 2014a, Younossi 2014b). A recent study evaluated a signiicant
improvement in health related quality of life due to DAA therapy in patients
with cryoglobulinemic vasculitis (Saadoun 2015b). According to recent
guidelines (EASL 2018), the presence of such EHM (i.e. debilitating fatigue)
should be regarded as a priority treatment indication with DAA, even in the
absence of signiicant liver damage (Negro 2015).
Dermatologic manifestations
A multitude of cutaneous disorders has been sporadically associated
with chronic HCV infection (Hadziyannis 1998). Epidemiologic studies have
conirmed the existence of a strong correlation between the sporadic form
of porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) and HCV, though the presence of HCV in
PCT patients seems to be subject to strong regional factors. Indeed, HCV
prevalence in PCT patients is above 50% in Italy, while only 8% in Germany
(Fargion 1992, Stölzel 1995). Because therapy with PEG-IFN and ribavirin
may exacerbate the cutaneous manifestations in PCT patients, these
individuals might strongly beneit from therapy with DAAs (Negro 2015).
Evidence of a close association between HCV and lichen planus was
provided by studies performed in Japan and southern Europe (Nagao 1995,
Carrozzo 1996), yet these observations do not apply to all geographic regions
(Ingafou 1998). HLA-D6 has been recognised as a major predisposing factor
for development of lichen planus in HCV positive patients. One hypothesis
suggests that geographical luctuation of HLA-D6 is responsible for the
diverse prevalence among HCV patients (Gandolfo 2002). A recent study
from Japan showed seven HCV patients with oral lichen planus who were
treated with daclatasvir and asunaprevir for 24 weeks. In addition to the
SVR24 rate of 100%, the cutaneous manifestations disappeared in four and
improved in the remaining three subjects, underlining the close association
between replicative HCV infection and oral lichen planus (Nagao 2016).
Recent data from a large cohort of HCV-infected patients showed a
higher incidence and mortality for several types of non-liver cancers in
individuals with HCV compared to the general population such as pancreas,
lung, kidney and rectum malignancies. However it remains elusive if higher
smoking rates in the observed HCV cohort could have been a possible
confounding factor (Allison 2015). New data from a french population
showed only hematological malignancies and oral cancer to be at higher
risk in HCV patients compared to the general population. Especially HCV
cirrhosis was associated with a higher age-adjusted incidence of non-liver
cancers, even ater achieving SV (Allaire 2018).
Idiopathic pulmonary ibrosis (IPF) may potentially be an EHM, as
prevalence of anti-HCV in patients with this disease is notably high (Ueda
1992). Interestingly, alveolar lavage in therapy-naïve HCV patients yielded
frequent indings consistent with a chronic alveolitis. Alveolar lavage in the
same patients ater completion of antiviral therapy showed a remission of
inlammatory activity (Yamaguchi 1997). Involvement of CGs in the genesis
of IPF is also probable (Ferri 1997).
Several ocular abnormalities such as sicca syndrome due to reduced
lacrimation as well as a peripheral corneal ulceration which is called
Mooren’s ulcer have been reported in association with HCV infection,
although the pathogenesis of such abnormalities is not completely
understood (Wilson 1993, Tang 2016).

showed only hematological malignancies and oral cancer to be at higher
risk in HCV patients compared to the general population. Especially HCV
cirrhosis was associated with a higher age-adjusted incidence of non-liver
cancers, even ater achieving SV (Allaire 2018). A higher prevalence of
extrahepatic malignancies than expected was also found in a cohort of
431 HCV patients who were treated with DAAs in Israel. The incidence of
lymphoma was about 100 times higher than in the general population. Also,
the incidence of pancreatic, endocervix, breast and squamous cell lung
carcinoma increased 29-, 1.6-, 136- and 2,5-fold, respectively. One possible
cause might be down-regulating of immune response ater successful DAA
therapy with higher vulnerability to the development of neoplasia, yet
larger multicentered studies are required to conirm these results (Khoury
2019).
Idiopathic pulmonary ibrosis (IPF) may potentially be an EHM, as
prevalence of anti-HCV in patients with this disease is notably high (Ueda
1992). Interestingly, alveolar lavage in therapy-naïve HCV patients yielded
frequent indings consistent with a chronic alveolitis. Alveolar lavage in the

HBV/HIV coinfection
Stefan Mauss and Jürgen Kurt Rockstroh
Introduction
The prevalence and transmission routes of HBV coinfection in the HIV+
population vary substantially by geographic region (Alter 2006, Konopnicki
2005). In the United States and Europe the majority of HIV positive gay men
have evidence of past HBV infection, and 5–10% show persistence of HBsantigen, with or without replicative hepatitis B as deined by the presence
of HBV DNA (Konopnicki 2005). Overall, rates of HBV/HIV coinfection are
slightly lower among intravenous drug users compared to gay men and
much lower among people infected through heterosexual contact (Núñez
2005).
In endemic regions of Africa and Asia, the majority of HBV infections are
transmitted vertically at birth or before the age of 5 through close contact
within households, medical procedures and traditional scariication
(Modi 2007). The prevalence among youth in most Asian countries has
substantially decreased since the introduction of vaccination on nationwide
scales (Shepard 2006). In Europe, vaccination of children and members of
risk groups is promoted and reimbursed by health care systems in most
countries.
The natural history of hepatitis B is altered by simultaneous infection
with HIV. Immune control of HBV is negatively afected leading to a
reduction of HBs-antigen seroconversion. If HBV persists, the HBV DNA
levels are generally higher in HIV positive patients not on antiretroviral
therapy (Bodsworth 1989, Bodsworth 1991, Hadler 1991). In addition, with
progression of cellular immune deiciency, reactivation of HBV replication
despite previous HBs-antigen seroconversion may occur (Soriano 2005).
However, ater immune recovery due to antiretroviral therapy, HBe-antigen
and HBs-antigen seroconversion occur in a higher proportion of patients
compared to HBV monoinfected patients treated for chronic hepatitis B
(Schmutz 2006, Piroth 2010, Kosi 2012).
In untreated HIV infection, faster progression to liver cirrhosis is reported
for HBV/HIV-coinfected patients (Puoti 2006). Moreover, hepatocellular
carcinoma may develop at an earlier age and is more aggressive in this
population (Puoti 2004, Brau 2007).
Being HBV-coinfected results in increased mortality for HIV positive

https://t.me/medicina_free
individuals, even ater the introduction of efective antiretroviral therapy
(AT), as demonstrated by an analysis of the EuroSIDA Study, which shows
a 3.6-fold higher risk of liver-related deaths among HBsAg positive patients
compared to HBsAg negative individuals (Konopnicki 2005, Nikolopoulos
2009) (Figure 1). In the Multicentre AIDS Cohort Study (MACS), an 8-fold
increased risk of liver-related mortality was seen among HBV/HIVcoinfected compared to HIV-monoinfected individuals, particularly among
subjects with low nadir CD4+ cell counts (Thio 2002). Even at present,
despite the widespread use of tenofovir, HBV/HIV coinfection is still
associated with an increased morbidity (Crowell 2014), and liver-related
deaths in HBV/HIV-infected patients still do occur (Rosenthal 2014).
The beneicial impact of treatment of HBV in HBV/HIV coinfection was
irst demonstrated by data from a large cohort showing a reduction in
mortality with lamivudine treatment compared to untreated patients (Puoti
2007). This result is even more remarkable because lamivudine is the least
efective HBV polymerase inhibitor due to the rapid development of drug
resistance. In general, because of its limited long-term eicacy, lamivudine
monotherapy cannot be considered as appropriate therapy for either mono
HBV infection or HBV/HIV coinfection (Matthews 2011).
Figure 1. Association of HBV/HIV coinfection and mortalit y (Konopnicki 20 05). More than
one cause of death allowed per patient; p-values from chi-squared tests.
In addition, two large cohort studies (EuroSIDA and MACS) plus data
from HBV monoinfection studies showing a reduction in morbidity and
mortality established the need to treat chronic hepatitis B in HBV/HIVcoinfected patients.
Treatment of chronic hepatitis B in HBV/HIVcoinfected patients on antiretroviral therapy
In general, starting hepatitis B therapy depends on the degree of liver
ibrosis and the HBV DNA level. But as AT is now recommended for all HIV
patients independent of CD4-count to reduce HIV-associated morbidity
and mortality and to prevent HIV transmission, all HBV/HIV-coinfected
patients are considered eligible for AT by current guidelines (e. g. EACS
2016). The previous complicated recommendations for how to treat chronic
hepatitis B in patients without AT are now obsolete. As antiretroviral
drugs that are also active against HBV can usually be used, interferonbased treatment of HBV is now rarely indicated. Data in the literature for
HIV-coinfected patients on interferon therapy for HBV infection are limited
and not very encouraging (Núñez 2003). In addition, intensiied treatment
studies combining pegylated interferon with adefovir or intensifying TDF
therapy with pegylated interferon for one year showed no increase in HBV
seroconversion rates (Ingiliz 2008, Boyd 2016).
In general, tenofovir is the standard of care for HBV in HIV-coinfected
patients, because of its strong HBV polymerase activity and antiretroviral
eicacy. Tenofovir has been a long-acting and efective therapy in the
vast majority of treated HBV/HIV-coinfected patients (van Bömmel 2004,
Mathews 2009, Martin-Carbonero 2011, Thibaut 2011). Its antiviral eicacy
is not impaired in HBV/HIV-coinfected compared to HBV-monoinfected
patients (Plaza 2013). No conclusive pattern of resistance mutations has
been identiied in studies or cohorts (Snow-Lampart 2011). These data are
still valid at the end of 2016. In theory, resistance may occur in patients on
long-term therapy, as with any other antivirals.
For patients with HBV DNA <2000 IU/mL and no relevant liver ibrosis,
no speciic AT regimen is recommended. However due to the favourable
resistance proile a regimen including tenofovir is the irst choice. When
choosing an HBV polymerase inhibitor, complete suppression of HBV DNA
is important to avoid the development of HBV drug resistance.
When HBV DNA is above 2000 IU/mL in HBV treatment naïve patients
a combination of tenofovir plus lamivudine/emtricitabine to treat
both infections is usually recommended. Even for patients who harbor
lamivudine-, telbivudine- or adefovir-resistant HBV due to previous
therapies this strategy stands. The recommendation to continue lamivudine/
emtricitabine is based on delayed resistance to adefovir seen when doing so
(Lampertico 2007), but the same efect has not been in combination with
tenofovir (Berg 2010, Patterson 2011).
Initiating AT including tenofovir resulted in higher rates of HBe
antigen loss and seroconversion as expected from HBV-monoinfected

https://t.me/medicina_free
patients (Schmutz 2006, Piroth 2010, Kosi 2012). This may be due to the
additional efect of immune reconstitution in HBV/HIV coinfected patients
complicating the immunological control of HBV replication.
For patients with advanced liver ibrosis or liver cirrhosis a maximally
active continuous HBV polymerase inhibitor therapy is important to
avoid further ibrosis progression and hepatic decompensation and to
reduce the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma. Tenofovir plus
lamivudine/emtricitabine is the treatment of choice. If the results are not
fully suppressive, adding entecavir should be considered (Ratclife 2011).
A reduction in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma has been shown
for patients on HBV polymerase inhibitors compared to untreated patients,
strengthening the antiproliferative efects of suppressive antiviral therapy
(Hosaka 2012).
Liver ultrasound is needed at least every six months, for early detection
of hepatocellular carcinoma. In patients with advanced cirrhosis,
esophagogastroscopy should be performed as screening for oesophageal
varices. For patients with hepatic decompensation and full treatment
options for HBV and who have stable HIV infection, liver transplantation
should be considered as posttransplant life expectancy seems to be the
same as for HBV-monoinfected patients (Coin 2007, Tateo 2009). Patients
with hepatocellular carcinoma may also be considered liver transplant
candidates, although according to preliminary observations from small
cohorts, the outcome may be worse than for HBV-monoinfected patients
(Vibert 2008).
In prospective controlled studies, tenofovir was clearly superior to
adefovir for the treatment of HBe antigen positive and HBe antigen negative
patients (Marcellin 2008).
The acquisition of adefovir resistance mutations and multiple lamivudine
resistance mutations may impair the activity of tenofovir (Fung 2005, Lada
2012, van Bömmel 2010), although even in these situations tenofovir retains
suicient activity against HBV (Berg 2010, Patterson 2011, Petersen 2012).
In lamivudine-resistant HBV the antiviral eicacy of entecavir in HIVcoinfected patients is reduced, as it is in HBV monoinfection (Shermann
2008). Because of this and the property of tenofovir as a fully active
antiretroviral, tenofovir-DF is the preferred choice in treatment-naïve HBV/
HIV coinfected patients who will use AT. The use of entecavir, telbivudine
or adefovir as an add-on to tenofovir or other drugs in the case of not fully
suppressive antiviral HBV therapy has not yet been studied in HBV/HIV
coinfection. This decision should be made on a case-by-case basis.
Based on the history of AT, combination HBV therapy of tenofovir
plus lamivudine/emtricitabine was expected to be superior to tenofovir
monotherapy, in particular in patients with highly replicative HBV
infection. However, this hypothesis has not as yet been supported by
studies (Schmutz 2006, Mathews 2008, Mathews 2009, Price 2013). There
are data showing better viral suppression for entecavir and tenofovir-DF
compared to entecavir monotherapy in highly replicative patients with
HBV-monoinfection, but no such a study is available for a comparison with
tenofovir monotherapy (Lok 2012).
In the case of HIV resistance to tenofovir, it is usually important to
continue using tenofovir for HBV activity when switching to other AT.
Discontinuation of the HBV polymerase inhibitor without maintaining
the antiviral pressure on HBV can lead to necroinlammatory lares that
can result in acute liver decompensation, particularly in patients with liver
cirrhosis.
In 2015, tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) was approved as antiretroviral
therapy in Europe and the US. TAF is a new formulation of tenofovir with
lower plasma exposure of the active drug tenofovir compared to tenofovir
diproxovil fumarate (TDF). TAF has not shown superior antiviral activity
against HIV or HBV compared to TDF, but may ofer advantages concerning
long term toxicities involving bone and kidney over TDF (Agarwal 2015,
Sax 2015). TAF can substitute TDF as HBV therapy in HBV/HIV-coinfected
patients (Gallant 2016). In November 2016, TAF was approved for HBV
treatment in the US, followed by the approval in Europe in January 2017.
The potentially nephrotoxic efect of TDF is a concern. Although
nephrotoxicity is rarely observed in HIV negative patients treated with
TDF monotherapy (Heathcote 2011, Mauss 2011), renal impairment has
been more frequently reported in HIV positive patients using TDF as a
component in AT and may be associated in particular with the combined
use of TDF and ritonavir-boosted HIV protease inhibitors (Mauss 2005, Fux
2007, Goicoecha 2008, Mocrot 2010). In addition, the recently approved
cytochrome P450 3A inhibitor cobicistat can also increase creatinine levels.
Regular monitoring of renal function in HBV/HIV-coinfected patients
including estimated glomerular iltration rate (eGFR) and assessment
of proteinuria is necessary. In the case of a reduced eGFR, TDF should be
substituted by TAF or should be dosed at a reduced frequency according to
the label. In the case of signiicant proteinuria, TDF should also be replaced
by TAF. Alternatively in speciic situations in the cas e of tenofovir asso ciated
nephrotoxicity tenofovir can also be replaced by entecavir.
Conclusion
The number of available HBV polymerase i nhibitors for chronic hepatitis
B has increased substantially over the last few years. In general, the choice
is conined to two mostly non-cross-resistant classes, the nucleotide and
nucleoside compounds.
