<meta name="description" content="Sofosbuvir is an oral nucleoside analogue and potent inhibitor of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA polymerase that is used in combination with other antiviral agents to treat chronic hepatitis C. Elevations in serum enzyme levels during sofosbuvir therapy are uncommon, and it has not been implicated convincingly in cases of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice. Nevertheless, and for unknown reasons, successful antiviral therapy of hepatitis C with sofosbuvir and other direct acting agents in patients with cirrhosis is occasionally complicated by hepatic decompensation; furthermore, treatment can cause reactivation of hepatitis B in susceptible patients coinfected with the hepatitis B virus (HBV).">

id="Sofosbuvir.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Sofosbuvir is an oral nucleoside analogue and potent inhibitor of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA polymerase that is used in combination with other antiviral agents to treat chronic hepatitis C. Elevations in serum enzyme levels during sofosbuvir therapy are uncommon, and it has not been implicated convincingly in cases of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice. Nevertheless, and for unknown reasons, successful antiviral therapy of hepatitis C with sofosbuvir and other direct acting agents in patients with cirrhosis is occasionally complicated by hepatic decompensation; furthermore, treatment can cause reactivation of hepatitis B in susceptible patients coinfected with the hepatitis B virus (HBV).</p></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Sofosbuvir (soe fos' bue vir) is an orally available nucleotide analogue that has potent activity against the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Sofosbuvir is a monophosphorylated uracil derivative whose single phosphate is protected by an alaninate cap that allows for the absorption and uptake of the molecule by hepatocytes where it is hydrolyzed to sofosbuvir monophosphate. Intracellular host kinases then convert it to the active triphosphate moiety. In multiple clinical trials, sofosbuvir has been shown to cause a rapid and marked decline in serum HCV RNA levels and, in combination with other antiviral agents and with more prolonged therapy, to result in sustained clearance of HCV (sustained virological response: SVR) in a high proportion of patients. Sofosbuvir was approved for use in the United States in 2013 to be used in combination with ribavirin or with both peginterferon and ribavirin in patients with chronic hepatitis C, genotypes 1, 2, 3 or 4. Sofosbuvir is available in tablets of 400 mg under the brand name Solvaldi, the recommended dose being 400 mg once daily in combination with either ribavirin alone (1000 or 1200 mg daily for 12 weeks for genotype 2 and 24 weeks for genotype 3) or in combination with both ribavirin and peginterferon for 12 weeks for patients with genotype 1.</p><p>Subsequently, a fixed combination of sofosbuvir (400 mg) and the HCV NS5A replication complex inhibitor ledipasvir (le dip' as vir: 90 mg) was approved for use in patients with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1 in 2014 and for genotype 4 in 2015. This combination is available as a fixed dose, single tablet under the brand name Harvoni and the recommended dose is one tablet daily for 12 weeks, which can be shortened to 8 weeks in selected patients.</p><p>In addition, sofosbuvir combined with NS5A inhibitors with broader activity against HCV genotypes, daclatasvir (dak lat' as vir: 2015) and velpatasvir (vel pat' as vir: 2016), has been shown to be effective in treating almost all HCV genotypes with sustained response rates of 95% or greater in response to 12 weeks of treatment in genotypes 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6. In 2016, the fixed combination of sofosbuvir (400 mg) and velpatasvir (100 mg) was approved for use in patients with all 6 genotypes of hepatitis C. This combination is available as a fixed dose, single tablet under the brand name Epclusa. The recommended dose is one tablet daily for 12 weeks. For patients with decompensated cirrhosis (Childs-Pugh Class B or C), ribavirin (1000 to 1200 mg in two divided doses daily) should be added to Epclusa for 12 weeks. Finally, the combination of sofosbuvir with an HCV specific NS3/4 protease inhibitor (such as simeprevir [2014]) was also shown to be highly effective in patients with genotype 1 infection generally in 12 week courses.</p><p>For patients who fail to respond to a two or three drug combination of direct acting antiviral agents, combinations of potent agents active against the three major HCV polypeptide products have been developed and have shown excellent activity in these refractory patients. The first such regimen was a single tablet formulation of sofosbuvir (400 mg), velpatasvir (100 mg) and a potent, broad spectrum (pangenomic) HCV protease inhibitor, voxilaprevir (100 mg). This combination was approved for use in the United States in 2017 and is available under the brand name Vosevi. The recommended dosing regimen is 1 tablet daily for 12 weeks. This regimen is not recommended for patients with decompensated cirrhosis (Childs-Pugh Class B or C).</p><p>As such, sofosbuvir transformed the therapy of chronic hepatitis C and became the most commonly used HCV-specific antiviral agent, replacing peginterferon and combinations of peginterferon, ribavirin and protease inhibitors. Sofosbuvir has few side effects and in placebo controlled trials adverse events occurred at a similar rate with sofosbuvir as placebo. Side effects may include headache, dizziness, nausea and diarrhea. Rare, but potentially severe adverse events include marked bradycardia when sofosbuvir is given with amiodarone.</p></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>In large randomized controlled trials, serum enzymes elevations were uncommon in patients treated with sofosbuvir despite the fact that the patients being treated had chronic liver disease. In most situations, serum aminotransferase levels improved rapidly upon initiating sofosbuvir therapy, and de novo, late elevations of ALT above 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) were uncommon and less frequent than with placebo or no therapy. In multiple, large clinical trials sofosbuvir has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice. Because sofosbuvir is always used with other antiviral agents, it is not always possible to separate the relative role of sofosbuvir from other drugs in causing adverse reactions.</p><p>Two rare and unusual forms of liver injury of uncertain relationship to sofosbuvir have been described in patients with receiving antiviral therapy for hepatitis C: sudden hepatic decompensation in patients with preexisting cirrhosis and reactivation of hepatitis B in patients with preexisting evidence of HBV infection.</p><p>A rare, but striking liver injury associated with sofosbuvir (and perhaps other potent agents active against HCV) is hepatic decompensation occurring in patients with preexisting cirrhosis. In several instances, decompensation occurred within 2 to 6 weeks of starting therapy (Case 1), while in others it occurred late during therapy or in the immediate posttreatment period. The typical pattern of onset was a progressive rise in bilirubin with signs of hepatic failure such as prolongation of the prothrombin time, decrease in serum albumin and appearance of ascites and hepatic encephalopathy. In many (but not all) instances, serum enzyme levels did not change or increased only slightly in comparison to pretreatment values. In all instances, sofosbuvir was being used in combination with other antiviral agents, such as peginterferon, simeprevir, daclatasvir or ledipasvir, and the specific role of sofosbuvir has been difficult to define. The decompensation usually coincided with rapid viral clearance and patients who survived the episode often had a sustained virological response. The cause of this decompensation is not clear, but it may represent a response to HCV viral eradication (on-target effect) rather than toxicity of the administered antiviral agents (off-target effect on the liver). Alternatively, the injury may be coincidental and unrelated to therapy.</p><p>A second form of liver injury that can occur with sofosbuvir therapy and perhaps other potent anti-HCV agents is reactivation of hepatitis B. More than 50 instances of clinically apparent hepatitis with rises in serum HBV DNA levels during therapy of patients for chronic hepatitis C. The majority of these patients were also HBsAg positive with no detectable or only low levels of HBV DNA before treatment (Case 2). Reactivation has also been described in patients who have anti-HBc without HBsAg in serum, a pattern that suggests previous recovery from hepatitis B. HBV reactivation typically arises within 2 to 8 weeks of starting therapy for hepatitis C and it can be clinically manifest with symptoms of acute hepatitis and marked elevations in serum aminotransferase levels and bilirubin. Instances of death from HBV reactivation have been reported with sofosbuvir therapy. The cause of reactivation is unclear, but it may be that HCV replication has a nonspecific suppressive effect on HBV replication, and eradication of HCV allows HBV replication to increase to levels that cause hepatitis. Alternatively, the change in immune reactivity with sudden clearance of HCV or as a result of a direct activity of the antiviral agents may alter the replicative status of HBV.</p><p>Likelihood score: A (well known cause of hepatic decompensation in patients with hepatitis C and cirrhosis and a rare cause of reactivation of hepatitis B in susceptible individuals).</p></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>The mechanism by which sofosbuvir might cause liver injury is not known. It is metabolized in the liver largely via the cytochrome P450 system, predominantly CYP 1A2. Sudden decompensation and the reactivation of HBV during sofosbuvir therapy may reflect changes in the immune status resulting from the suppression of HCV replication and injury.</p></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>Therapy of chronic hepatitis C with sofosbuvir is generally well tolerated and has not been linked to serum enzyme elevations or idiosyncratic clinically apparent liver injury. Sofosbuvir in combination with other antiviral agents, however, has been linked to instances of hepatic decompensation in patients with cirrhosis and with rare instances of reactivation of hepatitis B.</p><p>In two situations, however, monitoring for liver injury during sofosbuvir therapy is advisable. In patients with advanced cirrhosis, careful monitoring of liver tests during therapy is warranted and treatment discontinued early if progressive rises in serum bilirubin occur in the context of possible hepatic decompensation. Furthermore, patients receiving antiviral therapy for hepatitis C should be screened for evidence of hepatitis B (HBsAg and anti-HBc) before starting therapy. If these virologic markers are present, it is prudent to monitor serum HBV DNA levels, and antiviral therapy for hepatitis B started if viral titers rise. Alternatively, patients may be given prophylaxis against HBV replication for the period of treatment and for 12 weeks of follow up after therapy of hepatitis C. The efficacy of these approaches has not, however, been demonstrated in prospective controlled trials.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/AntiviralAgents/?report=reader">Antiviral Agents</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/HepatitisCDrugs/?report=reader">Hepatitis C Agents</a></p></div></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.CASE_REPORTS"><h2 id="_Sofosbuvir_CASE_REPORTS_">CASE REPORTS</h2><div id="Sofosbuvir.Case_1_Hepatic_decompensation"><h3>Case 1.

He was known to have cirrhosis for several years and had a previous episode of decompensation during unsuccessful therapy with peginterferon and ribavirin. He had esophageal varices and ascites which was controlled on spironolactone. His HIV infection was well controlled on efavirenz, tenofovir and emtricitabine which he had taken chronically. Within 2 weeks of starting the oral regimen for hepatitis C, he developed worsening jaundice (Table), and he was admitted for evaluation and therapy for suspected septicemia (piperacillin-tazobactam). He had no rash, fever or eosinophilia. Because of rising bilirubin levels, sofosbuvir, ledipasvir and ribavirin were discontinued. Tests for acute hepatitis A, B and E were negative as were virologic tests for EBV, CMV, HSV and adenovirus infection. Ultrasound and MRCP showed no evidence of biliary obstruction or masses. A liver biopsy showed cirrhosis, marked inflammation and cholestasis which was interpreted as compatible with drug induced liver injury. Lactate levels were normal, but INR levels rose and serum albumin decreased. He continued to worsen, but was not considered a candidate for liver transplantation and died of multiorgan failure and sepsis, 38 days after starting and 20 days after stopping treatment.</p><div id="Sofosbuvir.Key_Points"><h4>Key Points</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSofosbuvirTc"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tc/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSofosbuvirTc" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTc"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tc/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tc/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Sofosbuvir.Tc"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tc/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTc">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Laboratory_Values"><h4>Laboratory Values</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSofosbuvirTd"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Td/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSofosbuvirTd" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTd"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Td/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Td/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Sofosbuvir.Td"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Td/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTd">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Comment"><h4>Comment</h4><p>An elderly man with partially decompensated cirrhosis due to hepatitis C as well as HIV coinfection developed worsening decompensation when he was started on an all-oral regimen of therapy for hepatitis C. The timing of the clinical worsening was compatible with a drug induced etiology. However, there were several features that did not support the conclusion that therapy was responsible for the decompensation. For one thing, his liver disease seemed to be worsening even before therapy was started, serum bilirubin levels having risen from 3.7 to 5.3 mg/dL. Furthermore, the clinical pattern of injury that arose was unusual in that ALT and Alk P levels did not change, despite the steady increase in serum bilirubin values. Indeed, worsening of the INR did not occur until he was admitted and underwent other therapies and liver biopsy. He also had a history of liver decompensation during previous antiviral therapy with peginterferon and ribavirin, perhaps implicating ribavirin as a cause. While ribavirin regularly causes hemolysis and anemia with rises in serum bilirubin, in this instance hemoglobin levels fell little (from 11.7 to 10.1 g/dL) and the rise in bilirubin was in both direct and indirect fractions. Other evidence of hepatic synthetic dysfunction and liver failure followed. Finally, the patient also had HIV coinfection and was taking 3 other antiviral agents, and the possibility exists of unusual drug-drug interactions. Nevertheless, this and several other cases of hepatic decompensation during successful therapy of HCV related cirrhosis indicate that such patients should be cautioned about this outcome and monitored carefully, particularly during the first month of treatment. The cause of the decompensation is unclear and theoretically may be related to the rapid eradication of HCV infection or change in immune reactivity rather than to a direct hepatotoxic effect of the drug.</p></div></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Case_2_Reactivation_of_hepati"><h3>Case 2. Reactivation of hepatitis B during antiviral therapy with sofosbuvir and simeprevir.(<a class="bibr" href="#Sofosbuvir.REF.2" rid="Sofosbuvir.REF.2">2</a>)</h3><p>A 55 year old man with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1a, and cirrhosis who also had a history of chronic HBV infection, was started on compassionate use therapy with sofosbuvir (400 mg daily) and simeprevir (dose not given). He was known to have cirrhosis for several years and had previously failed to respond to courses of peginterferon and ribavirin. The cirrhosis was well compensated, but he had evidence of portal hypertension and esophageal varices. Before treatment, HCV RNA levels were 1.3 million IU/mL with serum ALT 62 U/L, bilirubin 0.7 mg/dL, INR 1.05 and platelet count 135,000/μL. Tests for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) were positive, but hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) was negative and antibody to HBeAg (anti-HBe) was present. Serum HBV DNA levels were low but detectable (peak values 2300 IU/mL). Seven weeks into sofosbuvir/simeprevir therapy, the patient developed fatigue, nausea, and abdominal pain followed by dark urine and jaundice. At this point serum ALT was 1495 U/L, AST 1792 U/L, bilirubin 12.2 mg/dL and INR 1.96 (Table). HCV RNA levels, however, were below the level of detection (none). Tests for hepatitis E and HIV infection were negative and autoantibodies were not present. HBV DNA values, however, were high, initially 22 million IU/mL. The drugs for hepatitis C were stopped and he was started on tenofovir and emtricitabine (Truvada). His liver tests began to improve and two months later all tests were normal. HBV DNA levels also fell and became undetectable approximately 4 months after starting treatment for hepatitis B. Fortunately, he remained HCV RNA negative despite having stopped therapy early and was considered to have had a sustained virological response.</p><div id="Sofosbuvir.Key_Points_1"><h4>Key Points</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSofosbuvirTe"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Te/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSofosbuvirTe" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTe"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Te/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Te/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Sofosbuvir.Te"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Te/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTe">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Laboratory_Values_1"><h4>Laboratory Values</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSofosbuvirTf"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tf/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSofosbuvirTf" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTf"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tf/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tf/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Sofosbuvir.Tf"><a href="/books/NBK548823/table/Sofosbuvir.Tf/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSofosbuvirTf">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.Comment_1"><h4>Comment</h4><p>A man with cirrhosis due to hepatitis C who was also a HBsAg carrier with low levels of HBV DNA and no HBeAg in serum was started on oral antiviral therapy for hepatitis C using sofosbuvir and the HCV protease inhibitor simeprevir, a combination that had been shown to be highly effective, although not specifically approved for use at the time. The viral response was prompt, and HCV RNA levels were below the level of detection within 4 weeks of starting treatment. Serum ALT levels also improved. Three weeks later, however, he developed symptoms of hepatitis and was found to have marked, de novo elevations in ALT and bilirubin accompanied by high levels of HBV DNA in serum, indicative of reactivation of chronic hepatitis B. The HCV therapy was stopped and he was started on oral antiviral therapy for hepatitis B (Truvada: the single tablet combination of tenofovir and emtricitabine). He began to improve, and HBV DNA levels gradually fell below his baseline values and were no longer detectable approximately 4 months after starting therapy (decreases in viral levels are much slower in hepatitis B than C). Interestingly, he achieved an SVR, despite stopping HCV therapy early, after only 8 weeks of treatment. Such shortened courses of treatment can be effective, but are not recommended, particularly for patients with cirrhosis. Why treatment of hepatitis C might cause reactivation of an underlying inactive or only minimally active hepatitis B is unknown. However, there is some degree of competition for “replicative space” within hepatocytes between the two viruses–active HCV infection inhibiting HBV replication and vice versa. Thus, reactivation may occur because of loss of the normal inhibitory activity of HCV replication. At least 50 instances of reactivation of hepatitis B during antiviral therapy of hepatitis C have been reported, some of which were fatal. What is unknown is whether reactivation occurs specifically with certain direct acting anti-HCV agents (such as sofosbuvir) or whether it is a general phenomenon that can occur with any potent regimen. Regardless, screening for hepatitis B is recommended before treating patients for hepatitis C, appropriate tests including HBsAg and anti-HBc. Approaches to prevention might be prophylaxis with an anti-HBV agent (tenofovir or entecavir for instance), or early introduction of treatment if HBV DNA levels rise (which requires active monitoring at 4 week intervals). The frequency of reactivation with HCV therapy is unknown but is likely to be uncommon.</p></div></div></div><div id="Sofosbuvir.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Sofosbuvir_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><p>
