BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Non-selective beta-blockers (NSBBs) can lower the risk of first decompensation in patients with cirrhosis and clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) (identified by a hepatic venous pressure gradient ≥10 mm Hg) with active etiology. Our aim was to examine the effect of NSBBs on first decompensation occurrence in patients with cirrhosis and enduring CSPH after etiological treatment.
METHODS: Patients with compensated cirrhosis and clinical evidence of CSPH (gastroesophageal varices [GEVs] and/or spontaneous portosystemic collaterals [SPSSs]) after 2 years from etiological treatment. The primary endpoint was first decompensation (occurrence of variceal bleeding, ascites, or hepatic encephalopathy) in patients on NSBBs vs off NSBBs.
RESULTS: The final cohort included 406 patients. Baseline characteristics of patients on NSBBs (n = 187) and off NSBBs (n = 219) were comparable, except for signs of portal hypertension that were more pronounced in the on-NSBBs group. During a mean follow-up of 32 months, 127 (31%) patients decompensated, with ascites being the most common (77%) decompensating event. Decompensation rates were lower in patients on NSBBs (16% vs 44%; P < .0001). The benefit of NSBBs on decompensation was maintained in patients with small GEVs (17% vs 43%; P < .0001), in those with spontaneous portosystemic shunt only (8% vs 43%; P = .003), and in each different etiology, including hepatitis C virus-cured cirrhosis (9% vs 32%; P < .0001). At Cox regression analysis, hemoglobin, Child-Pugh, Model for End-Stage Liver Disease-Sodium, diabetes at baseline, and previous bacterial infections were independent predictors of decompensation, while NSBBs use had a protective effect (hazard ratio, 0.32; 95% confidence interval, 0.20-0.49; P < .0001). NSBBs use significantly reduced bacterial infection rates (hazard ratio, 0.36; 95% confidence interval, 0.22-0.58; P < .0001).
CONCLUSION: NSBBs decrease the risk of first decompensation in patients with cirrhosis and enduring CSPH after etiological treatment.
