dc.description.abstract | Computer-assisted morphometry can provide precise measurement of hepatic fibrosis on a continuous scale. Previous morphometric studies of large cohorts of patients with treatment refractory chronic hepatitis C have shown a mean increase in fibrosis of 30% to 58% in 1 year. The aim of the present study was to quantify fibrosis progression in biopsy specimens obtained over 1.5 to 5 years from three groups of patients with baseline bridging fibrosis or cirrhosis (Ishak stages 3-6) enrolled in the Hepatitis C Antiviral Long-term Treatment Against Cirrhosis Trial. The main group of 346 lead-in nonresponders (viremic after 24 weeks of peginterferon-ribavirin therapy) had a mean fibrosis increase of 61% over pretreatment baseline after 2 years and 80% after 4 years. In contrast, the 78 breakthrough/relapse patients (undetectable serum hepatitis C virus RNA after 24 weeks of peginterferon-ribavirin and receiving antiviral therapy for 48 weeks) showed a mean increase in fibrosis of 48% when biopsied 36 months from pretreatment baseline but no further increase at 60 months. Finally, the 111 express patients with baseline biopsies following unsuccessful peginterferon-ribavirin outside the trial had significantly more baseline fibrosis than the others but an increase of only 21% after 21 months and a slight decrease at 45 months. Maintenance therapy with low-dose peginterferon had no effect on fibrosis changes in any of the groups. Conclusion: Morphometry demonstrated complex, nonlinear changes in fibrosis over time in this heterogeneous cohort of patients with interferon-refractory chronic hepatitis C.
