Liver fibrosis evolution according to elastography
Control group (n = 74) | Pirfenidone group (n = 122) | |
---|---|---|
According to liver stiffness by hepatic elastography measurement | ||
Fibrosis progression profile (FPP) [n (%)] | 13 (17.6%) | 22 (18.3%) |
Fibrosis-stable profile (FSP) [n (%)] | 58 (78.3%) | 57 (46.7%) |
Fibrosis regression profile (FRP) [n (%)] | 3 (4.1%) | 43 (35.2%) |
A significant decrease/increase in fibrosis was defined as 30% of change, compared to baseline values
