- Pre-transplant multidrug-resistant infections in liver transplant recipients-epidemiology and impact on transplantation outcome(2024) LEMOS, Gabriela T.; TERRABUIO, Debora R. B.; NUNES, Nathalia N.; SONG, Alice T. W.; OSHIRO, Isabel C. V.; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto C.; LEVIN, Anna S.; ABDALA, Edson; FREIRE, Maristela P.Background Cirrhotic patients are highly exposed to healthcare services and antibiotics. Although pre-liver transplantation (LT) infections are directly related to the worsening of liver function, the impact of these infections on LT outcomes is still unclear. This study aimed to identify the effect of multidrug-resistant microorganism (MDRO) infections before LT on survival after LT.Methods Retrospective study that included patients who underwent LT between 2010 and 2019. Variables analyzed were related to patients' comorbidities, underlying diseases, time on the waiting list, antibiotic use, LT surgery, and occurrences post-LT. Multivariate analyses were performed using logistic regression, and Cox regression for survival analysis.Results A total of 865 patients were included; 351 infections were identified in 259 (30%) patients, of whom 75 (29%) had >= 1 pre-LT MDRO infection. The most common infection was spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (34%). The agent was identified in 249(71%), 53(15%) were polymicrobial. The most common microorganism was Klebsiella pneumoniae (18%); the most common MDRO was ESBL-producing Enterobacterales (16%), and carbapenem-resistant (CR) Enterobacterales (10%). Factors associated with MDRO infections before LT were previous use of therapeutic cephalosporin (p = .001) and fluoroquinolone (p = .001), SBP prophylaxis (p = .03), ACLF before LT (p = .03), and days of hospital stay pre-LT (p < .001); HCC diagnosis was protective (p = .01). Factors associated with 90-day mortality after LT were higher MELD on inclusion to the waiting list (p = .02), pre-LT MDRO infection (p = .04), dialysis after LT (p < .001), prolonged duration of LT surgery (p < .001), post-LT CR-Gram-negative bacteria infection (p < .001), and early retransplantation (p = .004).Conclusion MDRO infections before LT have an important impact on survival after LT.
- Liver elastography can predict degree of advanced fibrosis for autoimmune hepatitis in biochemical remission(2023) PARANAGUA-VEZOZZO, Denise Cerqueira; TERRABUIO, Debora Raquel Benedita; REINOSO-PEREIRA, Gleicy Luz; MOUTINHO, Renata; ONO, Suzane Kioko; SALAS, Veronica Walwyn; FRANCA, Joao Italo Dias; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; CANCADO, Eduardo Luiz Rachid; CARRILHO, Flair JoseBackground and AimThe aim was to analyze the concordance of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) either by transient elastography (TE) or ARFI with liver biopsy in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) patients with biochemical remission and to identify those with histological remission. Liver biopsy is still the golden standard for AIH diagnosis. However, it is an invasive procedure and these patients, most of the time, require many biopsies, so it would be valuable to search for noninvasive method that could select all these patients and keep under observation. MethodsThirty-three patients with AIH were submitted for liver biopsy to evaluate histological remission after at least 18 months of normal aminotransferases. The efficiency of LSM and fibrosis stages was tested by a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (AUROC). ResultsOne patient (3%) was F0, 6 (18.2%) were F1, 8 (24.2%) were F2, 10 (30.3%) were F3, and 8 (24.2%) were F4, according to METAVIR. Thirteen of thirty-three (39.4%) patients did not achieve histological remission. AUROC for F4 stage was 0.83 (IC: 0.76-0.99) for TE and 0.78 (IC: 0.65-0.95) for ARFI. Optimal LSM cutoff values were 12.3 kPa (Se = 87.5%, Sp = 88%) for TE and 1.65 m/s (Se = 87.5%, Sp = 76%) for ARFI. The tests were unable to differentiate patients with histological activity from those in histological remission (P < 0.05). ConclusionTE and ARFI accurately identify liver fibrosis by METAVIR score in AIH patients with biochemical remission. No cutoff value was detected to indicate whether the patient achieved histological remission.
- Prediction models for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales carriage at liver transplantation: A multicenter retrospective study(2022) FREIRE, Maristela Pinheiro; RINALDI, Matteo; TERRABUIO, Debora Raquel Benedita; FURTADO, Mariane; PASQUINI, Zeno; BARTOLETTI, Michele; OLIVEIRA, Tiago Almeida de; NUNES, Nathalia Neves; LEMOS, Gabriela Takeshigue; MACCARO, Angelo; SINISCALCHI, Antonio; LAICI, Cristiana; CESCON, Matteo; DT'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; MORELLI, Maria Cristina; SONG, Alice T. W.; ABDALA, Edson; VIALE, Pierluigi; CHIAVEGATTO FILHO, Alexandre Dias Porto; GIANNELLA, MaddalenaBackground: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) colonisation at liver transplantation (LT) increases the risk of CRE infection after LT, which impacts on recipients' survival. Colonization status usually becomes evident only near LT. Thus, predictive models can be useful to guide antibiotic prophylaxis in endemic centres. Aims: This study aimed to identify risk factors for CRE colonisation at LT in order to build a predictive model. Methods: Retrospective multicentre study including consecutive adult patients who underwent LT, from 2010 to 2019, at two large teaching hospitals. We excluded patients who had CRE infections within 90 days before LT. CRE screening was performed in all patients on the day of LT. Exposure variables were considered within 90 days before LT and included cirrhosis complications, underlying disease, time on the waiting list, MELD and CLIF-SOFA scores, antibiotic use, intensive care unit and hospital stay, and infections. A machine learning model was trained to detect the probability of a patient being colonized with CRE at LT. Results: A total of 1544 patients were analyzed, 116 (7.5%) patients were colonized by CRE at LT. The median time from CRE isolation to LT was 5 days. Use of antibiotics, hepato-renal syndrome, worst CLIF sofa score, and use of beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor increased the probability of a patient having pre-LT CRE. The proposed algorithm had a sensitivity of 66% and a specificity of 83% with a negative predictive value of 97%. Conclusions: We created a model able to predict CRE colonization at LT based on easyto-obtain features that could guide antibiotic prophylaxis

- Chloroquine Is Effective for Maintenance of Remission in Autoimmune Hepatitis: Controlled, Double-Blind, Randomized Trial(2019) TERRABUIO, Debora Raquel Benedita; DINIZ, Marcio Augusto; FALCAO, Lydia Teofilo de Moraes; GUEDES, Ana Luiza Vilar; NAKANO, Larissa Akeme; EVANGELISTA, Andreia Silva; LIMA, Fabiana Roberto; ABRANTES-LEMOS, Clarice Pires; CARRILHO, Flair Jose; CANCADO, Eduardo Luiz RachidBetween 50% and 86% of patients with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) relapse after immunosuppression withdrawal; long-term immunosuppression is associated with increased risk of neoplasias and infections. Chloroquine diphosphate (CQ) is an immunomodulatory drug that reduces the risk of flares in rheumatologic diseases. Our aims were to investigate the efficacy and safety of CQ for maintenance of biochemical remission of AIH in a double-blind randomized trial and to define a subgroup that obtained a greater benefit from its use. A total of 61 patients with AIH in histologic remission (90.1% AIH type 1 [AIH-1]) were randomized to receive CQ 250 mg/day or placebo for 36 months. Of the 61 patients, 31 received CQ and 30 placebo. At baseline, clinical, laboratory, histologic findings, and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) profile were similar between the two groups. Relapse-free survival was significantly higher in the CQ group compared to the placebo group (59.3% and 19.9%, respectively P = 0.039). For those patients completing 3-year treatment, relapse rates were 41.6% and 0% after CQ and placebo withdrawal, respectively. Factors associated with a higher risk of relapse in multiple Cox regression were placebo use (hazard ratio, 2.4; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.055.5; P = 0.039) and anti-soluble liver antigen/liver-pancreas (anti-SLA/LP) seropositivity (hazard ratio, 5.4; 95% CI, 1.91-15.3; P = 0.002). Although it was not possible to define a subgroup that obtained a greater benefit from CQ according to anti-SLA/LP reactivity or HLA profile, 100% of patients who were anti-SLA/LP-positive (+) relapsed with placebo compared to 50% with CQ (P = 0.055). In the CQgroup, 54.8% had side effects and 19.3% interrupted the drug regimen. Conclusion: CQ safely reduced the risk of relapse of AIH, but it was not possible to define a subgroup that obtained a greater benefit with CQ use, probably because of sample size.
conferenceObject Anti-Ribosomal P Antibodies in a Large Cohort of Autoimmune Hepatitis with No Evidence of Lupus: A Common Underlying Mechanism Targeting Liver?(2012) CALICH, Ana Luisa; VIANA, Vilma S. T.; CANCADO, Eduardo L.; TERRABUIO, Debora R.; TUSTUMI, Francisco; LEON, Elaine P.; SILVA, Clovis Artur; BORBA NETO, Eduardo F.; BONFA, Eloisa- Fibrates for the Treatment of Primary Biliary Cholangitis Unresponsive to Ursodeoxycholic Acid: An Exploratory Study(2022) CANCADO, Guilherme Grossi Lopes; COUTO, Claudia Alves; GUEDES, Laura Vilar; BRAGA, Michelle Harriz; TERRABUIO, Debora Raquel Benedita; CANCADO, Eduardo Luiz Rachid; FERRAZ, Maria Lucia Gomes; VILLELA-NOGUEIRA, Cristiane Alves; NARDELLI, Mateus Jorge; FARIA, Luciana Costa; OLIVEIRA, Elze Maria Gomes de; ROTMAN, Vivian; MAZO, Daniel Ferraz de Campos; BORGES, Valeria Ferreira de Almeida e; MENDES, Liliana Sampaio Costa; CODES, Liana; PESSOA, Mario Guimaraes; SIGNORELLI, Izabelle Venturini; LEVY, Cynthia; BITTENCOURT, Paulo LisboaAim: Up to 40% of patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) will have a suboptimal biochemical response to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), which can be improved by the addition of fibrates. This exploratory study aims to evaluate the long-term real-life biochemical response of different fibrates, including ciprofibrate, in subjects with UDCA-unresponsive PBC.Methods: The Brazilian Cholestasis Study Group multicenter database was reviewed to assess the response rates to UDCA plus fibrates in patients with UDCA-unresponsive PBC 1 and 2 years after treatment initiation by different validated criteria.Results: In total, 27 patients (100% women, mean age 48.9 +/- 9.2 years) with PBC were included. Overall response rates to fibrates by each validated criterion varied from 39 to 60% and 39-76% at 12 and 24 months after treatment combination, respectively. Combination therapy resulted in a significant decrease in ALT and ALP only after 2 years, while GGT significantly improved in the first year of treatment. Treatment response rates at 1 and 2 years appear to be comparable between ciprofibrate and bezafibrate using all available criteria.Conclusion: Our findings endorse the efficacy of fibrate add-on treatment in PBC patients with suboptimal response to UDCA. Ciprofibrate appears to be at least as effective as bezafibrate and should be assessed in large clinical trials as a possibly new, cheaper, and promising option for treatment of UDCA-unresponsive PBC patients.
- Response to Ursodeoxycholic Acid May Be Assessed Earlier to Allow Second-Line Therapy in Patients with Unresponsive Primary Biliary Cholangitis(2023) CANCADO, Guilherme Grossi Lopes; COUTO, Claudia Alves; TERRABUIO, Debora Raquel Benedita; CANCADO, Eduardo Luiz Rachid; VILLELA-NOGUEIRA, Cristiane Alves; FERRAZ, Maria Lucia Gomes; BRAGA, Michelle Harriz; NARDELLI, Mateus Jorge; FARIA, Luciana Costa; GOMES, Nathalia Mota de Faria; OLIVEIRA, Elze Maria Gomes; ROTMAN, Vivian; OLIVEIRA, Maria Beatriz; CUNHA, Simone Muniz Carvalho Fernandes da; CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; MENDES, Liliana Sampaio Costa; IVANTES, Claudia Alexandra Pontes; CODES, Liana; BORGES, Valeria Ferreira de Almeida E; PACE, Fabio Heleno de Lima; PESSOA, Mario Guimaraes; GUEDES, Laura Vilar; SIGNORELLI, Izabelle Venturini; CORAL, Gabriela Perdomo; LEVY, Cynthia; BITTENCOURT, Paulo LisboaBackground Response to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) has been traditionally assessed 1 to 2 years after treatment initiation. With the development of new drugs, some patients may benefit from an earlier introduction of second-line therapies. Aims This study aims to identify whether well-validated response criteria could correctly identify individuals likely to benefit from add-on second-line therapy at 6 months. Methods Analysis of a multicenter retrospective cohort which included only patients with clear-cut PBC. Results 206 patients with PBC (96.6% women; mean age 54 +/- 12 years) were included. Kappa concordance was substantial for Toronto (0.67), Rotterdam (0.65), Paris 1 (0.63) and 2 (0.63) criteria at 6 and 12 months, whereas Barcelona (0.47) and POISE trial (0.59) criteria exhibited moderate agreement. Non-response rates to UDCA was not statistically different when assessed either at 6 or 12 months using Toronto, Rotterdam or Paris 2 criteria. Those differences were even smaller or absent in those subjects with advanced PBC. Mean baseline alkaline phosphatase was 2.73 +/- 1.95 times the upper limit of normal (x ULN) among responders versus 5.05 +/- 3.08 x ULN in non-responders (p < 0.001). Conclusions After 6 months of treatment with UDCA, the absence of response by different criteria could properly identify patients who could benefit from early addition of second-line therapies, especially in patients with advanced disease or high baseline liver enzymes levels.
- Risk factors for cancer in patients with primary biliary cholangitis and autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cholangitis overlap syndrome(2023) BRAGA, Michelle Harriz; CANCADO, Guilherme Grossi Lopes; BITTENCOURT, Paulo Lisboa; COUTO, Claudia Alves; GUEDES, Laura Vilar; LIMA, Andre Mourao Costa; FERRAZ, Maria Lucia Gomes; VILLELA-NOGUEIRA, Cristiane Alves; NARDELLI, Mateus Jorge; FARIA, Luciana Costa; GOMES, Nathalia Mota de Faria; OLIVEIRA, Elze Maria Gomes; ROTMAN, Vivian; OLIVEIRA, Maria Beatriz; CUNHA, Simone Muniz Carvalho Fernandes da; CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; MENDES, Liliana Sampaio Costa; IVANTES, Claudia Alexandra Pontes; CODES, Liana; BORGES, Valeria Ferreira de Almeida e; PACE, Fabio Heleno de Lima; PESSOA, Mario Guimaraes; SIGNORELLI, Izabelle Venturini; CORAL, Gabriela Perdomo; GALIZZI FILHO, Joao; CHAGAS, Aline Lopes; TERRABUIO, Debora Raquel Benedita; CANCADO, Eduardo Luiz RachidIntroduction and objectives: Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and PBC over-lap syndrome (AIH/PBC) have been associated with a higher risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and extra-hepatic malignancy (EHM). This study aims to assess potential risk factors associated with cancer development in PBC and AIH/PBC. Materials and methods: The Brazilian Cholestasis Study Group database was reviewed to compare clinical and laboratory features of PBC patients with HCC and EHM with those without cancer. Results: Among the 752 PBC patients enrolled, 64 of them with AIH/PBC, 87 cancers were identified in 72 patients, including 20 cases of HCC and 67 of EHM. Patients with HCC had a higher prevalence of cirrhosis
- Validation of the INCREMENT-SOT-CPE score in a large cohort of liver transplant recipients with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales infection(2023) RINALDI, Matteo; BONAZZETTI, Cecilia; GALLO, Mena; FERRARO, Giuseppe; FREIRE, Maristela; TERRABUIO, Debora Raquel Benedita; TANDOI, Francesco; ROMAGNOLI, Renato; ROSA, Francesco Giuseppe De; MULARONI, Alessandra; FERRARESE, Alberto; BURRA, Patrizia; HALPERN, Marcia; BALBI, Elizabeth; SIMKINS, Jacques; ABBO, Lilian; MORRAS, Ignacio; CANTERO, Mireia; ALAGNA, Laura; BANDERA, Alessandra; CLEMENTE, Wanessa Trinidade; VALERIO, Maricela; FERNANDEZ, Ainhoa; MUNOZ, Patricia; STATLENDER, Liran; YAHAV, Dafna; CAMARGO, Luis Fernando Aranha; GIRAO, Evelyne Santana; GROSSI, Paolo; VIALE, Pierluigi; CURTI, Stefania; GIANNELLA, MaddalenaBackground: Management of infections due to carbapenemase-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients remains a difficult challenge. The INCREMENT-SOT-CPE score has been specifically developed from SOT recipients to stratify mortality risk, but an external validation is lacking.Methods: Multicenter retrospective cohort study of liver transplant (LT) recipients colonized with CRE infection who developed infection after transplant over 7-year period. Primary endpoint was all-cause 30-day mortality from infection onset. A comparison between INCREMENT-SOT-CPE and other selected scores was performed. A two-level mixed effects logistic regression model with random effects for the center was fitted. Performance characteristics at optimal cut-point were calculated. Multivariable Cox regression analysis of risk factors for all-cause 30-day mortality was carried out.Results: Overall, 250 CRE carriers developed infection after LT and were analyzed. The median age was 55 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 46-62) and 157 were males (62.8%). All-cause 30-day mortality was 35.6%. A sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score >= 11 showed a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy of 69.7%, 76.4%, 62.0%, 82.0%, and 74.0%, respectively. An INCREMENT-SOT-CPE >= 11 reported a sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy of 73.0%, 62.1%, 51.6%, 80.6% and 66.0%, respectively. At multivariable analysis acute renal failure, prolonged mechanical ventilation, INCREMENT-SOT-CPE score >= 11 and SOFA score >= 11 were independently associated with all-cause 30-day mortality, while a tigecycline-based targeted regimen was found to be protective.Conclusions: Both INCREMENT-SOT-CPE >= 11 and SOFA >= 11 were identified as strong predictors of all-cause 30-day mortality in a large cohort of CRE carriers developing infection after LT.
