To describe dermatologic side effects encountered during treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis C, and analyze factors predisposing to such reactions.
Treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with interferon (IFN) and ribavirin is associated with a number of mucocutaneous adverse reactions that have not been adequately studied.
A retrospective cohort study design was used to longitudinally describe mucocutaneous drug eruptions during IFN and ribavirin therapy in HCV-infected patients. Factors predictive of mucocutaneous eruptions were analyzed by the use of Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazard model.
A total of 286 HCV-infected consecutive patients were treated with one of the IFNα formulations plus ribavirin. The mean age was 51.1 years (SD 5.6). There were 6 female patients. There were 5 patients who were also infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Fifty-six percent of the patients were white, 37% were African American, and 14% were Hispanic. Twenty-one percent of all study patients developed mucocutaneous drug eruptions. The most common drug eruptions were eczematous drug eruptions (48%), seborrheic dermatitis (11%), and xerosis (8%). Dermatologic eruptions were a contributing factor in the decision to discontinue antiviral treatment in 10% of cases. Use of Pegylated IFN formulations (hazard ratio=1.86; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-3.34) and presence of HIV coinfection (hazard ratio=4.46; 95% confidence interval, 1.61-12.92) were associated with increased rate of skin reactions.
Mucocutaneous reactions during IFN and ribavirin treatment of hepatitis C are common and are associated with HIV infection and use of Pegylated IFN.
描述慢性丙型肝炎患者治疗过程中出现的皮肤不良反应,并分析易发生此类反应的相关因素。
用干扰素(IFN)和利巴韦林治疗丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染会引起多种黏膜皮肤不良反应,但这些不良反应尚未得到充分研究。
采用回顾性队列研究设计,对 HCV 感染患者接受 IFN 和利巴韦林治疗期间的黏膜皮肤药物疹进行纵向描述。采用 Kaplan-Meier 曲线和 Cox 比例风险模型分析预测黏膜皮肤疹的相关因素。
共有 286 例连续 HCV 感染患者接受了一种 IFNα 制剂联合利巴韦林治疗。平均年龄为 51.1 岁(标准差 5.6),其中 6 例为女性,5 例合并人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染。56%的患者为白人,37%为非裔美国人,14%为西班牙裔。21%的研究患者出现黏膜皮肤药物疹。最常见的药物疹为湿疹样药物疹(48%)、脂溢性皮炎(11%)和皮肤干燥(8%)。皮肤不良反应是 10%患者决定停止抗病毒治疗的一个原因。使用聚乙二醇干扰素制剂(风险比=1.86;95%置信区间,1.04-3.34)和合并 HIV 感染(风险比=4.46;95%置信区间,1.61-12.92)与皮肤反应发生率增加相关。
IFN 和利巴韦林治疗丙型肝炎时出现黏膜皮肤反应很常见,与 HIV 感染和使用聚乙二醇干扰素有关。
