Management of liver disease and portal hypertension in common variable immunodeficiency (CVID).
JHEP reports : innovation in hepatology 2023 November
Patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) frequently develop liver disease and associated complications, which represent an increasingly prevalent unmet medical need. The main hepatic manifestation of CVID is nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH), resulting in non-cirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH). Liver disease is often underdiagnosed, leading to poor outcomes and decreased survival. The increasing numbers of patients with CVID who are diagnosed late with progressive liver disease underscores the importance of appropriate clinical management and treatment of liver complications. At the same time, specific guidelines for the clinical management of CVID-related liver disease are still lacking. Here, we review the epidemiology of CVID-related liver disease, reveal new insights into NRH and NCPH biology and highlight recently uncovered opportunities for NCPH diagnostics in CVID. Finally, we focus on current management of liver disease, portal hypertension and its complications - the key challenge in patients with CVID. Specifically, we review recent data regarding the role of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt and liver transplantation in clinical management. The role for anticoagulants and immunosuppressants targeting the pathogenesis of NRH will also be discussed. We propose an updated algorithm for the diagnostic work-up and treatment of NCPH in CVID. Finally, we consider future needs and therapeutic opportunities for CVID-related liver disease.
