PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 28 days

Population: 748 patients were eligible for analysis with matching valid liver biopsies and VCTE measurements.

VCTE was used to diagnose cirrhosis F4 in 748 patients undergoing liver biopsy and VCTE within a 28 day time period.

Outcome measures

Measure
Single Arm Undergoing FibroScan
n=748 Participants
Single arm active comparison of biopsy to vibration controlled elastography FibroScan
Diagnosis Performance of VCTE for Determination of Cirrhosis (Metavir F4) in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)
0.92 ROC area
Interval 0.87 to 0.95

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Liver Biopsy and VCTE within a time frame of 6 months

Population: 456 patients with matching liver biopsy and fibroscan

95% CI for Metavir Fibrosis stage 0 -1 consistent with no or mild fibrosis compared to Metavir 2 - 4 which represents significant fibrosis or cirrhosis
