• Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is a curable viral liver disease
• Can lead to decompensated cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and death

• Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is a curable viral liver disease
• Can lead to decompensated cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and death
BACKGROUND
• Mild to moderate CHC:
• Nonspecific symptoms e.g. fatigue, mild cognitive impairment
![Page 6: Health Utilities in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients with ......Yasmin Saeed, BScPhm, MSc (Candidate) • I have no actual or potential conflict of interest in relation to this topic or](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051903/5ff3e28f37dd8d74371cfd23/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is a curable viral liver disease
• Can lead to decompensated cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and death
BACKGROUND
• Mild to moderate CHC:
• Nonspecific symptoms e.g. fatigue, mild cognitive impairment
• Severe CHC (decompensated cirrhosis and HCC):
• Severe symptoms e.g. ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, esophageal bleeding

• Health utility incorporates patient’s health state and preference for that state
• Range from 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health)
• Important for understanding burden of disease from patient perspective

• Health utility incorporates patient’s health state and preference for that state
• Range from 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health)
• Important for understanding burden of disease from patient perspective
• Allows comparison between different diseases
• Can provide information about health disparities
• Can inform research and policy
• Can be used in economic analysis

DISCUSSION
![Page 25: Health Utilities in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients with ......Yasmin Saeed, BScPhm, MSc (Candidate) • I have no actual or potential conflict of interest in relation to this topic or](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051903/5ff3e28f37dd8d74371cfd23/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
DISCUSSION • Preliminary results suggest:
• Compensated cirrhosis may cause a significant reduction in patients’ quality of life
• Decompensation and HCC may not cause a significant additional reduction in quality of life
![Page 26: Health Utilities in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients with ......Yasmin Saeed, BScPhm, MSc (Candidate) • I have no actual or potential conflict of interest in relation to this topic or](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051903/5ff3e28f37dd8d74371cfd23/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
DISCUSSION • Preliminary results suggest:
• Compensated cirrhosis may cause a significant reduction in patients’ quality of life
• Decompensation and HCC may not cause a significant additional reduction in quality of life
• Unexpected since severe symptoms associated with decompensation and HCC but not with compensated cirrhosis
• Similarity to previous studies’ results may suggest true burden of CHC has been captured
• Alternatively, may be a reflection of a small sample size and/or selection bias

DISCUSSION • We recruited patients from outpatient clinics
• All patients in our study were ambulatory
• Many not experiencing severe symptoms at time of survey
• Sicker patients also more likely to decline survey
![Page 28: Health Utilities in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients with ......Yasmin Saeed, BScPhm, MSc (Candidate) • I have no actual or potential conflict of interest in relation to this topic or](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051903/5ff3e28f37dd8d74371cfd23/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
DISCUSSION • We recruited patients from outpatient clinics
• All patients in our study were ambulatory
• Many not experiencing severe symptoms at time of survey
• Sicker patients also more likely to decline survey
• Patients with significant decompensation and associated symptoms often admitted to hospital and thus do not attend outpatient clinics
• To fully capture the spectrum of decompensated cirrhosis, we will recruit hospital inpatients admitted for decompensated cirrhosis
• May experience a larger burden of disease than patients from ambulatory clinics

CONCLUSION
• Important to understand true burden of CHC from patient perspective
• To inform clinical practice, research, and health policy
• To inform cost-effectiveness analyses that reflect the true impacts of late-stage disease and the benefits of averting these impacts

CONCLUSION
• Important to understand true burden of CHC from patient perspective
• To inform clinical practice, research, and health policy
• To inform cost-effectiveness analyses that reflect the true impacts of late-stage disease and the benefits of averting these impacts
• Next steps
• Expanding study to additional sites in Canada
• Measuring health utilities pre- and post-DAA treatment
