Depression

HCV may directly affect the CNS:
through alterations in serotonergic and dopaminergic
neurotransmission with resultant depressive symptoms.

69. What is the impact of HCV eradication
on extrahepatic manifestations ?
70. Proven Extra-hepatic Benefits of HCV Eradication
(SVR following peginterferon and ribavirin) -1-
• reduced all-cause mortality,
• improvement in myocardial perfusion defects,
• reduced incidence of stroke,
• reduced renal and cardiovascular outcomes in diabetics.
• complete resolution of mixed cryoglobulin complications,
• regression/remission of HCV-associated lymphoma.
Negro Fet al, Gastroenterology 2015
71. Proven Extra-hepatic Benefits of HCV Eradication
(SVR following peginterferon and ribavirin) -2-
• reduced steatosis,
• reduced risk of insulin resistance,
• reduced risk of type 2 diabetes.
• improved cognitive performance,
• reduction in fatigue,
• improved patient-reported outcomes ,
• gains in quality of life.

72. HCV and Extrahepatic Manifestations
Summary of Unsolved Issues, January 2016
• What is the impact of DAAs on main extrahepatic manifestations ?
• Are the proven extra-hepatic benefits of HCV eradication following
peginterferon and ribavirin similar or higher with DAAs ?
• Does the DAA profile (i.e. nuc vs. non nuc, PI vs. non-PI …)
impacts on extra-hepatic benefits of HCV eradication ?
• Healthcare costs imposed by these conditions must be
considered in addition to those normally associated with chronic
HCV infection.
• Urgent need for clinical trials using DAAs, with mid-/long-
term follow-up, including pre-specified well defined
extrahepatic endpoints.
