ABSTRACT

Objective:

The aim of this study was to evaluate the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels before and after sustained virologic response (SVR) and investigate the baseline characteristics associated with improved glycemic control in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) achieving SVR after directacting antivirals (DAA) therapy. Materials and

methods:

Consecutive adult patients with CHC who achieved SVR after DAA treatment between January 2016 and December 2017 at Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre (RS, Brazil) were prospectively included. Levels of HbA1c were measured up to 24 weeks before DAA therapy and 12 weeks after SVR. Exclusion criteria were decompensated cirrhosis, HIV and/or hepatitis B virus, liver disease of other etiologies, and/or modification of prediabetes/ type 2 diabetes mellitus (PDM/T2DM) management. The primary outcome was a comparison of HbA1c levels before and after SVR. Secondary outcomes were the baseline variables associated with improved glycemic control.

Results:

The study included 207 patients with a mean age of 60.6±10.7 years, of whom 51.7% were women, 56% had cirrhosis, 37.7% had HCV genotype 3, and 54.5% had baseline T2DM or PDM. The median HbA1c level reduced significantly after SVR (5.5%, interquartile range [IQR] 4.9%-6.3%) compared with baseline (5.7%, IQR 5.3%-6.7%; p = 0.01). The baseline characteristics associated with improved HbA1c after SVR were cirrhosis, genotype 3, and age ≤ 60 years.

Conclusion:

Among patients with CHC, SVR after DAA was associated with HbA1c reduction, particularly in those with cirrhosis, genotype 3, and age ≤ 60 years.
