Resum
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Baveno VII has proposed criteria for cirrhosis recompensation, but their prognostic significance in decompensated patients cured of hepatitis C virus (HCV) deserves further investigation. Thus, we studied the incidence and impact of recompensation after HCV cure as well as its predictors. METHODS: A total of 2570 patients with advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) from 10 European centers were retrospectively included, including 2209 and 361 patients with compensated ACLD and decompensated cirrhosis who achieved sustained virologic response to direct-acting antivirals (DAAs). The association between achieving recompensation and clinical outcomes (hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC], portal vein thrombosis [PVT], and [liver-related] death) was investigated. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 8.4 years from treatment initiation, 132 patients (36.6%) achieved recompensation. Lower albumin levels and diabetes were negatively associated with achieving recompensation. The incidence rates of liver-related death (4.2 vs 8.8 per 100 patient-years) and PVT (2.7 vs 5.4) were substantially lower after recompensation vs in the nonrecompensated state, while HCC incidence remained high (3.9 vs 5.5). Compared with decompensated cirrhosis, achieving recompensation was independently associated with decreased risks of subsequent liver-related death (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.384; 95% confi-dence interval, 0.225-0.655) and of PVT (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.421; 95% confidence interval, 0.224-0.759), but both risks remained higher than in compensated ACLD. Importantly, HCC incidence was not reduced as compared with decompensated cirrhosis. CONCLUSIONS: Recompensation after HCV cure is associated with substantially decreased risks of (liver-related) mortality and PVT, but not of HCC.
