O documento discute o tratamento da hepatite C com inibidores de protease. Ele resume os resultados dos estudos IDEAL e SPRINT-2 que avaliaram o uso do boceprevir em combinação com peginterferona e ribavirina, mostrando altas taxas de resposta virológica sustentada e eventos adversos como anemia e disgeusia. O documento também discute parâmetros para monitoramento e duração do tratamento com boceprevir.

HCV is an RNA virus whose exact structure is yet to be established. The particles are about 40 to 70 nm in diameter. Two envelope proteins, E1 and E2, are thought to be anchored to a lipid envelope that surrounds a nucleocapsid composed of multiple copies of the core protein and the genomic RNA. 1 The HCV genome consists of a single-stranded positive-sense RNA with noncoding 5 ’ region containing an internal ribosome entry site (IRES), an open reading frame that encodes 3 structural and 7 nonstructural proteins (NS), and a 3’ noncoding region. 1 The structural proteins include E1, E2, and the core protein. The nonstructural proteins include the p7 ion channel, the NS2-3 protease, the NS3 serine protease and RNA helicase, the NS4A polypeptide, the NS4B and NS5A proteins, and the NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. 1 Both the structural and nonstructural proteins play a key role in the HCV infection process, enabling the virus to enter the host cell, replicate, infect other cells, and persist. 1.

HCV has significant genetic variability due to its rapid and error-prone replication. HCV isolates can be classified into 6 major genotypes that differ in their nucleotide sequences by 30 to 35%. The genotypes can be further classified into subtypes, designated by a, b, c, etc. The subtypes differ in their nucleotide sequence by 20 to 25%. 1 These differences in sequences have clinical implications in that HCV genotype 1 is less responsive to standard interferon treatment than genotypes 2 and 3. 1 Genotypes 5 and 6 are relatively easy to treat with standard treatment while genotype 4 has intermediate susceptibility to treatment. 2 The prevalence of each genotype varies according to geographic location. 3 Genotypes 1, 2, and 3 are distributed worldwide, whereas genotypes 4, 5, and 6 tend to occur in certain areas and populations. 3 HCV = hepatitis C virus. 1.

This slide provides an overview of the substantial global burden of HCV disease. Of note is that at least 70% of newly infected persons will develop chronic infection, which will require regular monitoring for signs of liver disease progression. In terms of severity, 25% of these chronically infected persons will develop cirrhosis. 1 Of these, 1% to 5% will progress to hepatocellular carcinoma. 2 As noted earlier, the WHO estimates that globally, approximately 300,000 persons die annually from liver cancer or liver disease related to HCV. 3 1.

Some recommendations for screening at-risk populations are shown on this slide. These recommendations were adapted from the 2004 practice guidelines of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) by European infectious disease and hepatology specialists in Italy, Germany, and Switzerland. 1 These guidelines expand on the similar WHO recommendations of 2002 for screening at-risk persons. 2 Routine testing is also recommended for patients with HIV infection and those with unexplained elevated aminotransferase levels. The more recent 2009 AASLD guidelines continue to support these recommendations. 3 Patients suspected of having HCV infection should be tested for HCV antibodies and those with detectable HCV antibodies should undergo HCV RNA testing with use of a highly sensitive assay such as reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. 1 Although sexual transmission of HCV is not clearly understood, certain high-risk sexual behaviors have been associated with HCV transmission, such as anal sex, sex with trauma, sex in the presence of a sexually transmitted disease, and sex without a condom. For this reason, patients who engage in these high-risk sexual practices should be tested. 1 Although the prevalence of infection is low in partners of HCV-infected persons, a negative test result in the partner can provide reassurance, making testing of sexual partners beneficial in clinical practice. 1 WHO = World Health Organization. 1.

When patients are treated with combination therapy, a spectrum of potential responses can occur. How quickly HCV RNA becomes undetectable is the single most important determinant of sustained virologic response. 1 Definitions of responses to therapy are listed here 2 : Rapid virologic response (RVR) is defined as undetectable HCV RNA after 4 weeks of therapy Early VR (EVR) or Complete EVR (cEVR) is defined as undetectable HCV RNA from baseline after 12 weeks of therapy Partial EVR can be characterized by decline of ≥ 2 log 10 IU/mL from baseline after 12 weeks of therapy Non-response is defined as failure to clear HCV RNA from serum after 24 weeks of therapy Null response, which is also considered non-response, is defined as an HCV RNA decline <2 log 10 IU/mL by Week 12 Partial response, which is also considered non-response, is a ≥ 2 log 10 IU/mL decline in HCV RNA but remains HCV RNA detectable at Week 24 End-of-treatment response (ETR) is undetectable HCV RNA at end of treatment (24 or 48 weeks depending on genotype) Sustained virologic response (SVR), the current definition of success in HCV treatment, is continued undetectable HCV RNA 24 weeks after completion of therapy HCV = hepatitis C virus; RNA = ribonucleic acid. 1.

BOC, boceprevir; PR, peginterferon/ribavirin; SVR, sustained virologic response. The results of SPRINT-2 are shown on this slide. The overall SVR rates were 63% in the response-guided arm and 66% in the standard duration arm—a difference that is not statistically different. However, SVR rates in both boceprevir arms were statistically higher than the 38% SVR rate in the control arm (P < .0001) .

BOC, boceprevir; EPO, erythropoietin; PR, peginterferon/ribavirin. This slide shows the adverse events and discontinuations that were observed with boceprevir in the treatment-naive trials. Anemia and dysgeusia were reported more frequently in the boceprevir arms than in the control arm in the SPRINT-2 trial. Indeed, 49% of patients who received response-guided therapy and 49% of those who received standard duration therapy developed anemia, vs 29% in the control arm. Erythropoietin was used in 43% of patients in both of these arms vs in 24% of patients in the control arm. Dysgeusia occurred in 37% and 43% of patients in the response-guided and standard-duration boceprevir arms, respectively, vs 18% in the control arm. Discontinuations due to adverse events were seen in 12% of patients in the response-guided therapy arm and 16% of patients in standard-duration therapy arm vs 16% in the control arm. Discontinuations were due to anemia in 2% of cases in the boceprevir-containing arms and 1% in the control arm.
