Prediction of prognosis to lamivudine in patients with spontaneous reactivation of hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure: using virologic response at week 4.

Abstract：

BACKGROUND/AIMS:Current results had demonstrated lamivudine (LAM) contributed to improve liver function and short-term prognosis in patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), but data concerning the outcome of long-term prognosis are limited. Our objective was to explore the prediction value of early viral response for prognosis and LAM resistance in ACLF patients with lamivudine treatment within 96weeks. METHODS:One hundred and forty consecutive subjects were recruited, 76 patients were treated with LAM and supportive treatment (LAM group) and 64 patients only received supportive treatment (non-NAs group). All the patients were followed up until death or 96weeks. The primary end point was overall survival rate at 96weeks, as well as the relationship between the virologic response at weeks 4 or 12 and prognosis and resistance at 96weeks. RESULTS:At 96weeks, the cumulative survival was higher in the LAM group than that in the non-NA group (43/76 (56.58%) vs 9/64 (14.06%), respectively, p=0.000). The survival rate of patients achieved complete viral response (CVR) at week 4 was higher than that of those with partial virologic response (PVR) during the 96-week follow-up (27/29 [93.10%] vs 16/45 [35.56%], p=0.000). In CVR patients, there was a significant improvement in model for end-stage liver failure (MELD) scores compared to PVR. Logistic recurrence indicated that both 4-week CVR and MELD scores were an independent predictor of the 96-week survival. Twelve patients developed LAM resistance (22.22%); all of them came from the PVR at 4weeks. CONCLUSION:LAM can significantly improve the long-term survival rate, and 4weeks CVR can predict the long-term clinical outcome and LAM-resistant in patients with HBV-related ACLF.
