3 Background and Definitions
Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C: Genotype 3 Background and Definitions

4 Treatment of Chronic HCV Genotype 3 Background
HCV infects ~ 5 million people in the US today Genotype 3 is the third most common HCV genotype in US Up to 85% of patients have contraindications for interferon therapy Major linkage to IVDA in epidemiological studies Interferes with lipid metabolism in hepatocytes and linked with fatty liver Slightly higher risk of developing cirrhosis HCV Geno 3 is the new Geno 1 in terms of lower response rates

5 Virologic Responses with HCV Therapy Sustained Virologic Response at 12 Weeks Post Therapy (SVR12)
Treatment Post Treatment SVR12 End of Treatment 12 Weeks Undetectable Sustained Virologic Response (SVR12) = Undetectable HCV RNA 12 Weeks Post Treatment

6 Different Types of Virologic Failure with HCV Therapy
Virologic Responses with HCV Therapy Relapser and Nonresponder (Null and Partial) Different Types of Virologic Failure with HCV Therapy Treatment Relapser Nonresponder Null Responder Nonresponder Partial Responder Undetectable

7 AASLD/IDSA/IAS-USA 2014 HCV Treatment Recommendations Criteria for Interferon Ineligible
Interferon Ineligible is defined as one or more of the following: Intolerance to interferon Autoimmune hepatitis and other autoimmune disorders Hypersensitivity to peginterferon or any of its components Decompensated hepatic disease Major uncontrolled depressive illness A baseline neutrophil count below 1500/μL, a baseline platelet count below 90,000/μL or baseline hemoglobin below 10 g/dL A history of preexisting cardiac disease Source: AASLD/IDSA/IAS-USA ( Accessed May 12, 2014

30 Issues and Controversies
Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C: Genotype 3 Issues and Controversies

31 Issues and Controversies

36 Treat now or defer therapy?

37 Factors Favoring Treat Now
Advanced Fibrosis (F3-F4) - Platelet count < 150,000/uL - Large spleen and/or portal vein - Esophageal varices Synthetic dysfunction Systemic disease - Cryoglobulinemia (+RhF) Highly motivated patients/symptoms Patients with Increased Mortality Risk - All cause - HCC risk

48 Summary Points for Treatment of Chronic HCV GT-3
Treat now with Sofosbuvir + Ribavirin x 24 weeks Consider IFN-based Rx in select patient who can tolerate IFN to shorten therapy, save costs and have a nominally higher SVR rate Stage patient for liver disease and systemic disease Look for signs of fatty liver and metabolic syndrome GT 3 may be the new “GT 1” but high SVR rates can be seen in selected patients
