A, B, C’s of Viral Hepatitis Chia C. Wang, MD, MS University of Washington Harborview Medical Center Hepatitis and Liver Clinic
2
Outline Overview of viral hepatitis Hepatitis A Hepatitis B Hepatitis C
3
Viral Hepatitis A virus that has particular tropism for hepatocytes In contrast, viruses such as the yellow fever virus, EBV, CMV cause liver inflammation but cause systemic inflammation as well
4
Viral Hepatitis acutechronicfecal-oral Hepatitis AXX Hepatitis BXX Hepatitis CX*X Hepatitis DXX Hepatitis EXX *symptoms of acute infection are rare
5
Differences in hepatitis A, B, and C How they are transmitted Whether or not they cause chronic infection Treatment Vaccine
6
Hepatitis A– 2003 outbreak In November 2003 there were 555 cases of hepatitis A in a single outbreak 3 deaths All cases had eaten at a Mexican restaurant in Monaca, PA
7
Hepatitis A Outbreak Investigation Cases Mild Salsa 94% Chili Con Queso 15% Controls 39% 3% Hepatitis A is fecal-orally transmitted
8
How are green onions a particularly likely vector for hepatitis A? HARVESTING STORAGE SURFACE DISTRIBUTION
9
Impact of hepatitis A outreatk 555 cases 3 deaths (.5%) Mean age 34 (4-73) Days of work lost average 27 days ~22% hospitalized
10
Take Home Points– Hep A Fecal-orally transmitted Restaurant outbreaks are the most common means of transmission Cooking inactivates virus Incubation period ~ 28 days, duration of illness ~ 4-6 weeks Recovery confers immunity
11
Who should get the hepatitis A vaccine? People traveling to endemic areas Injection drug users Men who have sex with men People who have clotting factor disorders People who work with primates Individuals with chronic liver disease Children in states with HAV rates more than twice the national average (Arizona, Alaska, Oregon, New Mexico, Utah, Washington, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Idaho, Nevada, California)
14
Worldwide prevalence of hepatitis and HIV
15
Chronic hepatitis Marked by the presence of circulating virus in the bloodstream Liver biopsy usually shows inflammation, which may progress to fibrosis over time May be associated with the development of cirrhosis May be associated with the development of hepatocellular CA
16
Symptoms of chronic hepatitis Fatigue Difficulties with concentration and memory Right-sided abdominal pain Loss of appetite Extra-hepatic Rashes Joint pains Kidney disease Depression
17
Why do we care about chronic hepatitis? Chronic hepatitis Cirrhosis and/or liver cancer 20%

28
If you only remember 2 things... Hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) Indicates immunity Hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc IgG) Indicates exposure (but not timing of that exposure) IgM suggests acute infection So what about the patient who is anti-HBs positive but anti-HBc IgG negative??

Transmission of hepatitis B Risk of infection after needlestick exposure HIV: 1 in 300 HCV: 1 in 30 HBV: 1 in 3 HBV is a DNA virus and is quite stable outside of the body
35
Risk factors for adult-acquired chronic hepatitis B in the U.S. Sexual exposure IDU Household contact Health care and public safety occupational exposure Hemodialysis patients
36
21 Incident HBV infection in King County in 2005
37
Who should be vaccinated for hepatitis B? All children Household/sexual contacts Health care workers Hemodialysis patients Recipients of blood products International travelers IDU MSM Men and women recently diagnosed with an STD or with multiple sexual partners Prison inmates
39
Hep B antivirals Tenofovir (Viread) ** Entecavir (Baraclude) ** Telbivudine (Tyzeka) Lamivudine (Epivir HBV) Adefovir (Hepsera) Pegylated interferon alfa 2a (Pegasys)
40
What to tell patients about hep B Not every patient needs to be treated Treatment controls disease but does not cure Treatment is easy to take with few side effects Medication adherence is important to avoid the development of resistance
41
Who should be referred? Patients who are sAg+ AND: eAg+ Have elevated LFTs Have high viral loads Are inactive carriers but need reassurance

Conclusions from Telaprevir/Boceprevir studies Addition of the protease inhibitor confers an ~ 20- 30% increase in SVR rates compared to standard dual therapy Response guided therapy can shorten treatment for genotype 1 patients to 24 weeks for patients with early response African American patients may derive particular benefit from triple therapy compared to past dual therapy

What to tell our patients Both new drugs are still used in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavirin Side effects of the regimen are generally worse than they were with pegylated interferon and ribavirin For SOME genotype 1 patients, treatment can be shortened to 24 weeks from 48 weeks Cure rates are NOT 100% Better drugs yet to come

87
What to tell the patient with hepatitis C Better treatments are right around the corner For patients with genotype 2 or 3 disease, interferon-free therapy available end of 2013 For patients with genotype 1 disease, no interferon-free by 2014, but short course (12 weeks) interferon may be an option for many For everybody: higher cure rates; fewer side effects
88
Primary Care for Hepatitis C Hep A and B vaccination Minimize alcohol Limit Tylenol to 1 gm a day Consider minimizing opiate use Consider minimizing marijuana use Improve BMI
