- W2056568565 abstract "Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) monotherapy has recently been proposed for liver transplant recipients with adverse events (nephrotoxicity, hypertension) related to calcineurin inhibitors. We analyzed the influence of MMF on the clinical course of recurrent hepatitis C. Among 1038 patients who underwent liver transplantation (OLT) from April 1986 to October 2006, we analyzed 48 adult recipients (4.6%) whose diagnosis was hepatitis C virus (HCV) cirrhosis and who were converted from calcineurin inhibitors to MMF monotherapy. The 36 men and 12 women, had a mean age at OLT of 52.9 ± 7.2 years; the time elapsed from OLT to the onset of MMF monotherapy was 72.5 ± 47.6 months (range = 11–210). The mean follow-up after monotherapy was 19 ± 16.1 months (range = 2–67). Indications for conversion were: chronic renal dysfunction with HCV in 45 patients; HCV recurrence in two; and hypertension plus HCV recurrence in one subject. When the indication was renal dysfunction (excluding three patients who underwent hemodialysis), the mean creatinine values decreased significantly from baseline to 6 months of monotherapy from 1.63 ± 0.61 mg/dL to 1.51 ± 0.78 mg/dL (P < .03). The creatinine clearance only improved significantly from the baseline value of 56.6 ± 16.8 mL/min to the value at 3 months of monotherapy—63.6 ± 18.4 mL/min (P < .001). At the last outpatient visit, creatinine and creatinine clearances had not changed significantly. The mean diastolic blood pressure did improve significantly at the end of the study. The mean glucose levels decreased but not significantly at the last outpatient visit. Liver function tests did not change significantly after conversion to MMF monotherapy. The acute rejection rate was 8.3%, and adverse events related to MMF monotherapy were present in 9 patients (18.7%). Conversion from calcineurin inhibitors to MMF monotherapy in patients who underwent OLT for HCV transiently improved renal function and hypertension. The acute rejection rate was low, and adverse events were usually well tolerated." @default.
