| 5 | Boceprevir is highly effective in treatment-experienced hepatitis C virus-positive genotype-1 menopausal women显示文摘AIM: To investigate the safety/efficacy of Boceprevirbased triple therapy in hepatitis C virus(HCV)-G1 menopausal women who were historic relapsers, partial-responders and null-responders. METHODS: In this single-assignment, unblinded study, we treated fifty-six menopausal women with HCV-G1, 46% F3-F4, and previous PEG-α/RBV failure(7% null, 41% non-responder, and 52% relapser) with 4 wk lead-in with PEG-IFNα2b/RBV followed by PEGIFNα2b/RBV+Boceprevir for 32 wk, with an additional 12 wk of PEG-IFN-α-2b/RBV if patients were HCV-RNApositive by week 8. In previous null-responders, 44 wk of triple therapy was used. The primary objective of retreatment was to verify whether a sustained virological response(SVR)(HCV RNA undetectable at 24 wk of follow-up) rate of at least 20% could be obtained. The secondary objective was the evaluation of the percent of patients with negative HCV RNA at week 4(RVR), 8(RVR BOC), 12(EVR), or at the end-of-treatment(ETR) that reached SVR. To assess the relationship between SVR and clinical and biochemical parameters, multiple logistic regression analysis was used.RESULTS: After lead-in, only two patients had RVR; HCV-RNA was unchanged in all but 62% who had ≤1 log10 decrease. After Boceprevir, HCV RNA became undetectable at week 8 in 32/56(57.1%) and at week 12 in 41/56(73.2%). Of these, 53.8% and 52.0%, respectively, achieved SVR. Overall, SVR was obtained in 25/56(44.6%). SVR was achieved in 55% previous relapsers vs. 41% non-responders(P = 0.250), in 44% F0-F2 vs 54% F3-F4(P = 0.488), and in 11/19(57.9%) of patients with cirrhosis. At univariate analysis for baseline predictors of SVR, only previous response to antiviral therapy(OR = 2.662, 95%CI: 0.957-6.881, P = 0.043), was related with SVR. When considering 'on treatment' factors, 1 log10 HCV RNA decline at week 4(3.733, 95%CI: 1.676-12.658, P = 0.034) and achievement of RVR BOC(7.347, 95%CI: 2.156-25.035, P = 0.001) were significantly related with the SVR, although RVR BOC only(6.794, 95%CI: 1.596-21.644, P = 0.010) maintained significance at multivariate logistic regression analysis. Anemia and neutropenia were managed with Erythropoietin and Filgrastim supplementation, respectively. Only six patients discontinued therapy. CONCLUSION: Boceprevir obtained high SVR response independent of previous response, RVR or baseline fibrosis or cirrhosis. RVR BOC was the only independent predictor of SVR. | Veronica Bernabucci Alessia Ciancio Salvatore Petta Aimilia Karampatou Laura Turco Silvia Strona Rosina Critelli Paola Todesca Caterina Cerami Caterina Sagnelli Mario Rizzetto Calogero Cammà Erica Villa | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，44： | 0 |
