FibroTest-ActiTest in HCV Estimating Fibrosis, Cirrhosis and Activity Recognized by AASLD1, EASL-ALEH2, CASL3, APASL5 and WHO4 Guidelines FibroTest-ActiTest : access to care FibroTest FibroTest is recognized by the following guidelines for IFN-free HCV 1 2 3 5 4 FibroTest estimates liver fibrosis: treatment access : AASLD , EASL-ALEH , CASL , APASL and WHO . ‣ F0: no fibrosis ‣ F1: minimal fibrosis Diagnose before treatment ‣ F2: moderate fibrosis ‣ F3: advanced fibrosis FibroTest evaluates both fibrosis in the early stages (F0 to F3)15 as well ‣ F4: severe fibrosis (cirrhosis) as cirrhosis (F4). Cirrhosis can be fine-tuned to 3 levels:13 • F4.1 (cut-off 0.74): cirrhosis without complications • F4.2 (cut-off 0.85): cirrhosis with oesophageal varices only • F4.3 (cut-off 0.95): cirrhosis with severe complications (primary ActiTest liver cancer, bleeding or decompensation) ActiTest estimates necroinflammatory FibroTest offers the same diagnostic value regardless of ethnicity, activity: gender, transaminases level, HCV genotype and viral load. 8 ActiTest is more accurate for the diagnosis of necroinflammatory ‣ A0: no activity 9 ‣ A1: minimal activity activity than ALT transaminases. ‣ A2: moderate activity ‣ A3: severe activity Follow-up after treatment Cured patients still need to monitor their liver fibrosis and activity, to avoid the occurrence of related medical issues14, including cirrhosis (11% after 10 years) and complications or primary liver cancer (5% after 10 years).
