  4. Clinical and laboratory manifestations of acute hepatitis A

  5. Hepatitis A: a public health burden • Millions of cases annually worldwide • Billions of people have been infected globally during their life time • Adult infections - 75-90% of cases are symptomatic • Historically- fulminant hepatitis is rare (<1%) but with 1.75-2.1% mortality rate after age >40 years of age • Rising(?) incidence of fulminant hepatitis in distinct regions

  6. Proportion of susceptibles among older children and adults risk for clinically significant outbreaks childhood exposure to virus The hepatitis A paradox Improved socio-economic conditions Proportion of symptomatic disease increase with age Adapted from Dagan.R Jama, July 13, 2005 p.202 and WHO/CDS/CSR/EDC/2000.7 p.20-217

  26. Current Methods of Determining the Risk of HCC: HBV DNA Level

  27. HBV DNA Associated With Increased Risk of HCC 3.9-fold greaterrisk of HCC in individuals with detectable HBV DNA vs those with undetectable HBV DNA Risk associated with increasing HBV DNA levels These data support possibility of reducing long-term risk of HCC by inducing sustained suppression of HBV replication Yang HI, et al. N Engl J Med. 2002;347:168-174.

  28. Diagnostic Criteria andPatient Evaluation

  29. Can HBV Infection Be Cured? HBV is not curable but it is controllable HBsAg seroconversion is the ultimate form of viral control

  30. Presence of Occult HBV Among Patients Without Liver Disease Occult HBV infection defined by presence of HBV DNA in liver of HBsAg-negative individuals These individuals may be at increased risk of liver fibrosis progression and development of HCC if other causes of liver damage are present[1] Immunosuppression may reactivate occult HBV Individuals may transmit HBV infection to others 1.

  31. Goals of Hepatitis B Treatment Prevention of long-term negative clinical outcomes (eg, cirrhosis, HCC, death) by durable suppression of HBV DNA Primary treatment endpoint Sustained decrease in serum HBV DNA level to low or undetectable Secondary treatment endpoints Decrease or normalize serum ALT Improve liver histology Induce HBeAg loss or seroconversion Induce HBsAg loss or seroconversion
