Abstract

Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) has been recognized as a global health problem. World health organization (WHO) has set a goal to reduce new viral hepatitis infections by 90% and reducing deaths due to viral hepatitis by 65% by 2030. Achievement of this goal became possible by the discovery of direct acting antiviral agents (DAA). The aim of this paper is to describe the first Croatian experience in the treatment of CHC with the ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir + dasabuvir (PrOD) ± ribavirin (RBV) combined therapy. Mathematical model was used to estimate the prevalence and number of complications depending on the number of treated patients annually. Overall, 117 patients with HCV genotype 1 and 4 infection were treated with PrOD±RBV. Sustained virological response was achieved in 97% of treated patients without significant side effects and therapy discontinuation. The goal of reducing deaths by 65% can be achieved if 450 patients are treated annually. With epidemiological effort in early diagnosis combined with timely treatment, Croatia can be among first countries that would achieve WHO goals in the control of chronic viral hepatitis.

Abstract in Croatian

Kronični hepatitis C (KHC) prepoznat je kao javnozdravstveni problem visokog prioriteta. Svjetska zdravstvena organizacija (SZO) postavila je globalni cilj sniženja smrtnosti za 65% i prevalencije za 90% do 2030. godine. Preduvjet za ostvarenje ovog cilja jest otkriće izravno djelujućih antivirusnih lijekova (DAA). Cilj je ovog rada prikazati prva iskustva u liječenju kroničnog hepatitisa C (KHC) trojnom kombinacijom antivirusnih lijekova ombitasvir/ paritaprevir/ritonavir + dasabuvir (PrOD) uz dodatak ribavirina. Upotrebom matematičkog modela procijenjeni su prevalencija i broj komplikacija terminalne bolesti jetre ovisno o broju liječenih bolesnika do 2030. godine. Uključeno je 117 bolesnika s infekcijom HCV-om genotipa 1 i genotipa 4 koji su liječeni terapijom PrOD ± RBV. Izlječenje je postignuto u 97% liječenih, bez znatnijih nuspojava i prekida terapije. Liječenjem 450 bolesnika na godinu postigao bi se cilj sniženja smrtnosti za 65%. Pojačanim probirom (screeningom) osoba s rizikom, udruženim epidemiološkim naporima za otkrivanje asimptomatskih bolesnika i njihovim pravodobnim uključivanjem u medicinsku skrb omogućilo bi se da Hrvatska bude među prvim zemljama koja može ostvariti ciljeve SZO-a u kontroli virusnih hepatitisa.
