Welcome to ACG 2012!The Premier GI Clinical Event of the Year!Dear Colleagues,

Welcome to ACG 2012, ACG’s Annual Scientific Meeting and Postgraduate Course, the premier GI clinical event of the year. The Postgraduate Course Directors and ACG’s Educational Affairs Committee, along with the Friday Course Directors, have brought together internationally recognized experts and rising stars in the field. This year’s program promises to deliver the latest clinical updates in gastroenterology and hepatology, plus discuss what is on the horizon that may impact your practice.

Back by popular demand is the Hands-on Workshop Center. Located in the Exhibit Hall, we’ve added additional sessions for the most popular topics: Advanced Polypectomy, Hemostasis Techniques, Foreign Body Removal and Mucosal Ablation Methods. Other popular sessions to be offered include ERCP and Cholangioscopy Techniques, EUS and FNA, Enteroscopy, Suturing and Closures, Esophageal and Anorectal Motility Disorders, Capsule Endoscopy and more. Five of the more than 20 sessions to be offered are for GI fellows only. Pre-registration for any hands-on session is required. See the Hands-on Workshop Center counter at the ACG Registration Desk beginning Saturday, October 20th. For a complete list of sessions and time, see page 14. Hands-on session begin on Sunday, October 21st.

Last year we beta tested a new app that allowed Postgraduate Course attendees to download the session slides. The app was so popular, this year we’ve expanded the app to the Annual Meeting session slides. The app, eventScribe, powered by CadmiumCD, allows users the opportunity to download to your iPad current slides available from presenters and lets you to take notes and highlight slides of interest. Visit the CadmiumCD counter at the ACG Registration Desk for more information or to download the slides.

2012 was a record-breaking year for abstract submissions. You’ll find more than 1700 posters and oral presentations this year. Poster presentations open on Sunday beginning at 3:30 pm. Posters may be found in the Exhibit Hall. A popular activity to view posters is the Poster Rounds with the Experts. Each day of the poster sessions, well-known experts will lead attendees around to posters of interest. This is a great opportunity to discuss posters, garner insight from the experts, and make new contacts with other attendees in a low-key, relaxed environment. Poster Rounds with the Experts run from Sunday through Tuesday.

Two social events are open to all attendees this year. The big Exhibit Hall Opening Reception, formerly the President’s Reception, will take place on Sunday, October 21, from 5:15 pm – 7:00 pm, immediately following the Postgraduate Course. The largest social event at the meeting, it is a great opportunity to enjoy food and drink with colleagues and friends and to explore the Exhibit Hall in support of the meeting’s sponsors. New this year is a light reception honoring the ACG President, in association with the ACG Annual Business Meeting, on Monday, October 22 beginning at 5:45 pm. Enjoy light snacks and drinks as we elect a new slate of officers. Join the leadership of the College and visit with your friends at these important collegial events.

In closing, I want to thank you for the opportunity to serve you this year as ACG President. Your support has made the College more successful than ever. I welcome everyone to the ACG 2012 Annual Scientific Meeting and Postgraduate Course: live, learn and prosper!

Sincerely,

Lawrence R. Schiller, MD, FACG ACG President

A professional guide narrates the history of the area while guests enjoy the picturesque and contrasting scenery throughout the colorful mountain area as the group drives from one stop to the next on the scenic loop. In the heart of Red Rock stands the over-500 acre Spring Mountain Ranch which was owned at one time by Howard Hughes and was originally built in the 1860s by pioneer Jim Wilson.

Fellows-in-Training Events

The American College of Gastroenterology is committed to serv-ing the specific needs of GI trainees. The ACG 2012 Annual Scientific Meeting and Postgraduate Course include elements designed with this aim in mind. For GI trainees, the College offers assistance preparing for your future in gastroenterology with focused discussions from gastroenterologists in a variety of practice settings with the Trainees’ Forum, the Trainees’ Lun-cheon, Career Opportunities for Women in GI Luncheon, and the Negotiation and Networking Skills Workshop. Plus, there is an opportunity for training programs to showcase their talent by competing in GI Jeopardy.

Negotiation and Networking Skills WorkshopFriday, October 19 • 5:15 pm – 7:30 pm • Room 2301The Women in Gastroenterology Committee is hosting a program geared to Senior GI Fellows and Junior Faculty discussing negotia-tion and networking skills for men and women. Separate breakouts for small group discussions are planned so space is limited. Advance registration is required. Visit the ACG Registration Desk for registra-tion information.

Career Opportunities for Women in GI LuncheonSaturday, October 20 • 12:20 pm – 1:35 pm • Room 1001The Women in Gastroenterology Committee is hosting a program geared towards residents and trainees who are facing difficult deci-sions in the future of their medical careers. Female gastroenterolo-gists from a variety of medical backgrounds will address the issues of being a female subspecialist, balancing career and family, and opportunities for women in medicine and more specifically, gastroen-terology. Advanced registration is required and space is limited. Visit the ACG Registration Desk for registration information.

GI Jeopardy: Buzz In for Your Training ProgramSaturday, October 20 • 5:15 pm – 7:00 pm • Bassano 2700ACG’s favorite quiz show, GI Jeopardy, will be back again in 2012. To become a contestant, you must be a fellow-in-training, but all are welcome to attend the competitive final round, a spirited GI version of the television classic.

The top five scoring teams from the online competition will be sending two-person teams to compete in front of a live audience. Competing this year will be:

Massachusetts General HospitalMayo School of Graduate Medical Education (Rochester)Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center / New York Presbyterian Hospital (Cornell Campus)Stanford UniversityUCLA Medical Center

Last year’s GI Jeopardy finalists were supported by more then 300 lively audience members giving the event a real game show atmo-sphere. Watch this year’s teams as they match wits and compete for the chance to bring home the coveted GI Jeopardy trophy. Each member of the winning team will be awarded $1,000 toward travel to the 2012 ACG Annual Meeting and Postgraduate Course in Las Vegas, in addition to the trophy which they can proudly display back at their home institution.

Trainees’ Forum BreakfastSunday, October 21 • 6:30 am – 7:45 am • Room 601If you’re looking for the tools to find the right job environment after graduation, the annual Trainees’ Forum may be just what you need. The opening talk will be on the topic of “Contracts”. Following this presentation, small round table discussions will take place on topics including Academics, Advanced Fellowships, Private Practice, and Medicolegal Issues of GI Practice. Don’t miss out on this important information that can help you take control of your career.

Continental Breakfast will be served. Advanced registration is required and space is limited.

Available to all trainees in gastroenterology and hepatology at no charge. Visit the ACG Registration Desk for registration information.

Trainees’ Luncheon: Tools to Navigate the Fellow Through a Successful TransitionSunday, October 21 • 12:20 pm – 1:35 pm • Room 906Once again, a special lunch exclusively for Fellows-in-Training will be offered on Sunday during the Postgraduate Course. This year’s lunch, “Tools to Navigate the Fellow through a Successful Transition,” will feature two distinguished speakers, Charlene LePane, DO, and Amy Oxentenko, MD, FACG, who will discuss pertinent issues to be consid-ered as trainees begin to think about their future after fellowship. Each speaker will offer suggestions through their own perspective on topics such as a 4th year fellowship, transition from fellowship to practice, what boards are like, and endoscopy outside of training.

This session will provide trainees the opportunity to ask appropriate questions they may have before finishing fellowship so that they may achieve their professional goals. Don’t delay, as this luncheon sells out every year.

This lunch is available to all trainees in gastroenterology and hepa-tology. A separate fee of $35 is required for this event and space is limited. Visit the ACG Registration Desk for registration information.

Hands-on Workshop Center – Trainee-only SessionsACG will again offer the Hands-on Workshop Center in the Exhibit Hall featuring sessions delivered by ACG faculty experts. Faculty will present an overview of the device or technique, a demonstration using the device and attendees will then have an opportunity to practice using the equipment. Each session will feature devices provided from two or more companies, when available.

In addition, the College will offer trainee-only hands-on sessions. The sessions are: Mucosal Ablation Methods, Hemostasis Techniques, Foreign Body Removal, ERCP and Cholangioscopy Techniques, and Basic Colonoscopy Techniques and Polypectomy/EMR.

Trainee-only sessions will take place on Monday and Tuesday, October 22 and 23 from 7:45 am – 9:30 am. Trainees are also welcome to participate in any Hands-on session offered during regular Exhibit Hall hours on Sunday from 3:30 pm – 7:00 pm, and Monday and Tuesday from 10:00 am – 4:30 pm.

ACG’s 2012 Educational Programs — Needs Assessment

Clinical gastroenterology continues to experience an ever increasing array of options and advancements affecting both the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. Busy gastroenterologists must stay abreast of the diagnostic and treatment options that are available for managing their patients and effectively utilize them while maximizing quality and safety.

The multi-faceted pressures of new and increasing scientific developments, pressures from payors and policymakers and demands by more knowledgeable patients mandate that gastroenterologists find ways to constantly reevaluate the diagnostic techniques and treatment modalities used and mechanisms for de-livery in their practices. Declining reimbursement and an insufficient work force also remain significant challenges for gastroenterologists and their practices. As a consequence, it is important to identify more efficient ways to obtain the latest scientific knowledge and institute scientifically sound therapy so that the high-est quality of patient care can be maintained. This objective, regardless of the specific practice setting, is to guarantee that each individual patient obtains the treatment and service that is the best possible option for their specific needs.

The emphasis of ACG’s educational efforts focuses on these advancements in diagnosis and treatment options, as well as on the policies, procedures, and guidelines gastroenterologists employ in the overall management of their practices. The CME educational program goal is to heighten the knowledge of clinicians and other health care professionals involved in GI patient care in all areas of management, with an emphasis on those conditions with increasing prevalence and those where management continues to present a challenge. Attention is also placed on advanced and improved endoscopic techniques and practice management tools that can increase gastroenterologists’ efficiency and effectiveness in their daily practice.

The proper use of screening techniques that lead to prevention of or an early diagnosis of specific disease conditions is critical. This includes encouraging screening and surveillance for colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer among both men and women; however, colon cancer incidence rates have declined over the last two decades and survival rates have increased. This likely relates at least in part to increased colorectal cancer screening and surveillance, which allows physicians to detect and remove pre-cancerous polyps or cancers at an early stage. Although these trends are moving in a positive direction, there remains a need to increase the number of individuals being screened. In addition, new tests have been devel-oped in recent years for the purpose of colorectal cancer screening. Providing gastroenterologists with knowledge of the most effective and efficient means to conduct the screening and surveillance of colorectal cancer continues to be very important. Furthermore, providing and quantifying indicators that define a quality colonoscopy, including prep quality and adenoma detection rates, espe-cially in light of recent findings on the prevalence of flat lesions, is a need that affects the gastroenterologist each time a screening colonoscopy is performed. As the survival rates from these GI cancers continue to improve, the need to continue educating the gastroenterologists providing ongoing care to these patients increases. This important and evolving educational need must be met in a way that touches on the impact of various forms of cancer on the overall health and quality of life of these patients.

One condition that has drastically increased in prevalence in the U.S. is obesity; from less than 15% in the 1960s to over 30% at present. It has been predicted that if the rates continue at their current pace, by 2015, 75% of adults will be overweight or obese. Therefore, not only is it imperative for gastroenterologists to be knowledgeable regarding obesity prevention and treatment options, but it is also important that they understand the importance of patient education. Patient education is a necessity to improve compliance and to achieve desired treatment results. In those patients who undergo surgery for the management of obesity, information on the post-surgical complications in bariatric surgery patients and their management has become increasingly important. These topics, as well as the latest information on what GI conditions are tied to or made worse by obesity, have been requested as areas of further education by practicing gastroenterologists.

An area of gastroenterology that continues to see important developments in diagnostic and medical therapeutic options is inflammatory bowel disease. The gastroenterologist must be fully aware of the latest developments in biologic and immunomodulator therapies including safety considerations and their place in patient management. In addition, in recent years there have been many ad-vances made in laboratory, radiographic and endoscopic modalities that directly impact on diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease and on surveillance for dysplasia in ulcerative colitis. Education regarding optimizing the use of such modalities is important to the practicing gastroenterologist. The post-surgical management of inflammatory bowel disease patients also continues to be a topic of great importance and one in which the clinician often faces challenges due to the complexity and unpredictability of the condition and the associated decision-making process.

The gastroenterologist is frequently faced with challenges related to liver disorders including hepatitis B and C, NAFLD, hepatic encephalopathy, cir-rhosis, and autoimmune liver diseases. Often, the gastroenterologist relies on the expertise of the hepatologist to assist in the management of these patients; however, with hepatologists operating at capacity, the gastroenterologist must be able to offer the best quality of care and treatment options to patients with liver disease. With the increased incidence of hepatitis C and NAFLD, practical and clinically relevant physician education is extremely important in this area.

FACULTY DISCLOSURESIt is the policy of the American College of Gastroenterology to ensure objectivity, balance, independence, transparency, and scientific rigor in all its sponsored educational activities. Individuals participating in the planning or implementation of a sponsored activity are required to disclose to ACG any relevant financial relationship held within the past 12 months that may pose a potential commercial bias. Conflicts of interest will be identified and resolved prior to the beginning of the activity. ACG also requires presenters to disclose to participants any uses of drugs or devices mentioned in their presentations that are off-label or investigational.

Pancreaticobiliary diseases can also be extremely challenging to manage. Gastro-enterologists can offer highly specialized care for such patients including inter-ventional endoscopic procedures. Education on the diagnosis and management of various forms of pancreaticobiliary disease including pancreatitis, pancreatic cysts, pancreatic cancer and biliary disorders is critical to obtaining the best patient outcomes.

Improvements in the understanding of the pathogenesis and treatment of motility and functional GI disorders continue to progress as research in this area ex-pands. These disorders are among the most common GI disorders in the general population. Understanding the latest science with regard to these disorders and newer treatment modalities is critical to improving clinical outcomes and quality of life for a large group of patients who have been among the most difficult to treat. Understanding the potential role of enteric microbiota and inflammation in these disorders will also help determine the appropriate course of action and play a criti-cal role in managing these challenging conditions.

Diarrheal disorders can prove to be challenging to diagnose and manage. Whether it be acute or chronic, caused by a malabsorptive condition, inflammatory or infectious process, gastroenterologists must be aware of the various potential causes of diarrhea and the most appropriate corresponding treatment options. With the incidence and severity of Clostridium difficile infections increasing in recent years, this is yet another condition that demands close attention by the gastroenterologist.

GI bleeding remains one of the most common yet most challenging issues con-fronted by the clinical gastroenterologist. Whether the GI bleeding is related to drug therapy, stress ulceration in the intensive care unit, anticoagulation, chronic liver disease or obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, the gastroenterologist must be up to date on the latest information on strategies to prevent, diagnose and optimally treat GI bleeding. This includes providing accurate, practical information directly to patients and referring physicians.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a common condition world-wide. An under-standing of its pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment options and complications is extremely important for the practicing gastroenterologist. Other upper GI condi-tions including Barrett’s esophagus, eosinophilic esophagitis, dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease and H. pylori also require a clear understanding. It is important that published evidence-based practice guidelines for these upper GI conditions and many other identified GI disorders be available to the gastroenterologist for their explicit understanding and to enhance their ability to most effectively manage each of their patients.

Rapid technological advancements in endoscopy and other diagnostic and thera-peutic areas in gastroenterology creates a need to communicate the latest tech-niques and strategies for dealing with everything from patients with altered anatomy to identification and removal of large and difficult polyps to the developing practice of natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery. In addition to using the same technology in a more efficient manner, new technological developments permit the gastroenterologist to observe areas of the GI tract that have not traditionally been viewable, such as the small bowel. Capsule endoscopy and other deep enteroscopy techniques allow for a more extensive evaluation of the small bowel. The develop-ment of CT colonography requires the gastroenterologist to fully understand the advantages and disadvantages of this technology as well as how to perform the procedure, interpret and act upon the findings. Gastroenterologists in a variety of practice settings need to learn and integrate these new therapies into their practice in order to provide state-of-the-art services to their patients.

Finally, it is critical that gastroenterologists incorporate quality, safety and service metrics into their clinical practice. In particular, quality and safety issues in the endoscopy suite need to be addressed in order to improve patient outcomes. Other quality issues dealing with specific disease states and their management in the office practice also need to be addressed by the practicing gastroenterolo-gist. Practice efficiency is also of great importance as the demand for increased efficiency across all settings continues to drive the search for practical tools to positively impact care delivery and patient outcomes. Through the use of evidence-based approaches for treatment and rational public health policy, clinicians need to identify new and innovative ways to deliver care across the community. The ever expanding access to information on a real-time basis by both clinicians and patients provides unique opportunities as well as challenges to the healthcare delivery system. When this is combined with the pressures associated with increased spending on healthcare in an environment that currently is trending towards decreased reimbursement and does not adequately reward the physician for spending more time with the patient, the importance of high quality continuing medical education for gastroenterologists and their patients cannot be overstated.

The ASGE 2012 Great Debate: This Ain’t Staying in VegasFriday, October 19, 2012 • 7:15 am – 5:00 pm • Galileo BallroomCourse Co-Directors: Gottumukkala S. Raju, MD, FACG, FASGE, and Michael J. Levy, MD, FACG

asge-sponsored endoscopy course

Members/Fellows: $395 Resident/Trainee/Candidate Members: $200 ACG Allied Health Members: $200 ASGE Practice Manager Members: $200 Non-Member Physician/Exhibitor/Guest: $495 Non-Member Resident/Trainee: $250 Practice Manager Non-Members: $250 All Other Non-Members: $250

Course DescriptionOver the last four decades, endoscopy has helped revolutionize the evaluation and management of patients with gastrointestinal diseases. In the last decade, we have witnessed the emergence of endoscopy as a preferred therapy for preventing progression of Barrett’s esophagus to cancer and management of gastroin-testinal bleeding. Although we have made great strides in colon cancer prevention, incorporation of optical diagnosis, endoscop-ic mucosal resection and quality metrics in our practices could further enhance patient care while reducing the medical cost. Recent advances have broadened our understanding of the role for endoscopy in screening of pancreatic cancer, in the evalu-ation of autoimmune pancreatitis and for managing endoscopy associated complications. This course is designed to cover these other advances in the field of endoscopy.

A group of world-renowned experts will use a debate format to initially focus on key points of controversy. A series of case presentations will provide the framework from which to further develop their perspective. In doing so, the speakers will rely on high quality images and videos. Use of an audience response system and roving moderators will facilitate and encourage live interaction among faculty and attendees. We are excited to also offer an Endoscopy at the Movies session and separate Endos-copy Jeopardy that are anticipated to provide lively and interac-tive formats to further enhance the educational experience.

Intended AudienceThis course has been specifically designed for practitioners in gastrointestinal endoscopy, especially gastroenterologists, gastro-intestinal surgeons, gastrointestinal nurses, and fellows in train-ing. This course is equally relevant to those in private practice and academic practice.

Program ObjectivesAt the conclusion of this course, participants should be able to: • Identify the role of endoscopic ultrasound, endoscopic

mucosal resection, and locally ablative methods in the management of Barrett’s esophagus

• Discuss the role of glue relative to other management strategies for gastric variceal bleeding

• Recognize the role and value of endoscopic management of lower gastrointestinal bleeding

• Discuss the role of screening in pancreatic cancer detection and differentiate the value of various screening modalities

• Identify the key indication and approach to diagnosing and treating autoimmune pancreatitis

• Recognize the role of endoscopy in the causation as well and management of endoscopically induced complications

• Discuss the role of optical diagnosis and endoscopic resection in the management of colon polyps

• Identify the importance of quality metrics in gastroenterology and endoscopy and means for applying this information into one’s practice

AccreditationThe American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

ASGE designates this live activity for a maximum of 8.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Registration fee: $125

Course DescriptionThe challenges of quality patient care and optimal patient outcomes seem to increase exponentially from year to year through a combination of increased demand and burgeoning information/treatment options relating to disease guidelines, dis-ease management recommendations, and introduction of new pharmacotherapeutic agents and devices. The clinical gastroen-terologist needs to build on his/her educational foundation re-garding GI anatomy and disease states that lead to their board certification and recertification while distilling the essence of new information and integrating it into their day-to-day practice. The requirement for recertification has posed an educational challenge for board certified gastroenterologists who are trying to manage their practice with their educational needs. The pri-mary purpose of the ACG Recertification Course is to facilitate completion of an ABIM approved medical knowledge module, developed by ACG.

Using a new ACG module approved for self-evaluation of medi-cal knowledge credit toward ABIM Maintenance of Certification, faculty will answer and discuss all 50 questions covering key areas of gastroenterology; audience participation is encouraged. The cases and questions will be presented and the answer options will be described. Course attendees will utilize an audi-ence response system to choose which option they believe to be the correct answer, and these anonymous responses will be shown. The faculty member will then identify the correct answer and provide the basis for the selection and explain why the other options were incorrect. Participants will be able to com-plete their answer sheets for this module during the session.

A boxed dinner will be provided to all registered attendees.

Program ObjectivesUpon completion of this program attendees will:

• Learn the scope of the substantive areas in organ sys-tems and disease management that they will need to be fully conversant in to successfully complete the exam.

• Obtain a clear understanding of the most effective test taking approaches.

AccreditationThe American College of Gastroenterology is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.


Attendee RequirementsRegistrants are required to purchase the ACG’s Self-Assess-ment Program for Maintenance of Certification – 5th Edi-tion (2012) ($60 for ACG members; $80 for non-members). Once registered, participants will be contacted regarding how to purchase the required module. Attendees enrolled in the ABIM’s MOC program who successfully complete this 50-ques-tion ACG module with a minimum passing score of 70% will be awarded 20 self-evaluation of medical knowledge points by ABIM. Participants must be enrolled in ABIM’s Maintenance of Certification program to receive MOC credit for completion of this module.

ACG’s 2012 Three-Day Clinical Review

A Practical Approach to Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology

Program DescriptionWith the ever-increasing demands to remain abreast of the many new and emerging advancements in the field of gastro-enterology and the volume of patients continuing to increase as the population ages, the clinical gastroenterologist is more chal-lenged than ever to deliver the best patient care in each situa-tion they encounter. Research in a multitude of gastroenterology and hepatology areas continues to progress at a rapid pace. The outcome of advances in technology, diagnostic modalities, and therapeutic options has had a positive impact on the man-agement of many GI diseases and this impact can be expected to grow as we move into the future. Scientific education, based on critical foundational knowledge and clinical skills, the com-munication of practical methods for treatment, and the ability to integrate the newest tools in diagnosis with the latest therapeu-tic/treatment options are key necessities for the GI clinician to deliver top quality patient care. This course will provide updates on a variety of gastroenterology and hepatology subjects, includ-ing IBD, obesity, pancreaticobiliary topics, esophageal disorders, colon polyps and colorectal cancer, endoscopic techniques, motility disorders, hepatitis B and C, complex issues in liver disease and GI bleeding. Expert faculty will deliver scientific presentations in a variety of formats. Didactic lectures, followed by interactive question and answer sessions, small group learn-ing luncheons, expert panel discussions in a case-based format, and a choice of breakout sessions on the latest topics in GI and liver clinical care will be offered.

The program is designed primarily for clinicians in GI/hepatol-ogy as well as physician assistants, nurse practitioners and other advanced practice healthcare professionals interested in an aggressive but scientifically sound approach to the manage-ment of GI and liver illnesses.

It is the policy of the American College of Gastroenterology to ensure objectivity, balance, independence, transparency, and scientific rigor in all its sponsored educational activities. All faculty participating in the planning or implementation of a sponsored activity are required to disclose to ACG any relevant financial relationship or other relationship held within the past 12 months that may pose a potential commercial bias and to assist in resolving any conflict of interest that may arise from the relationship. Conflicts of interest will be identified and resolved prior to the beginning of the activity. The absence of any such affirmative statement of disclosure means that the abstract authors have submitted a complete disclosure statement, and have indicated that they have no relevant relationships to report. ACG also requires presenters to disclose to participants any uses of drugs or devices mentioned in their presentations that are off-label or investigational.

Information on the Genesis of Study Concepts and Design: Author ResponsibilityThe American College of Gastroenterology has supplemented the current conflict of interest disclosure with an additional series of questions completed by the authors of abstracts indicating whether they have been actively and personally involved in developing the study’s concept and design and in collecting the data to assure that authors are not reporting data actually collected and developed by others, e.g., a pharmaceutical company or other commercial entity.

An abstract not referenced below indicates that the authors reported no industry involvement took place in any aspect or phase of the research.

INCIVEKTM

(telaprevir) TabletsBrief Summary of Prescribing Information. See package insert for full prescribing information.INDICATIONS AND USAGEChronic Hepatitis CINCIVEKTM (telaprevir), in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, is indicated for the treatment of genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C in adult patients with compensated liver disease, including cirrhosis, who are treatment-naïve or who have previously been treated with interferon-based treatment, including prior null responders, partial responders, and relapsers.The following points should be considered when initiating treatment with INCIVEK:• INCIVEK must not be administered as monotherapy and must only be prescribed with both peginterferon alfa and ribavirin.• A high proportion of previous null responders (particularly those with cirrhosis) did not achieve a Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) and had telaprevir resistance-associated substitutions emerge on treatment with INCIVEK combination treatment.

• INCIVEK efficacy has not been established for patients who have previously failed therapy with a treatment regimen that includes INCIVEK or other HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitors.

CONTRAINDICATIONSContraindications to peginterferon alfa and ribavirin also apply to INCIVEK combination treatment.INCIVEK combination treatment is contraindicated in:• women who are or may become pregnant. Ribavirin may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. If this

drug is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug treatment, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to a fetus.

• men whose female partners are pregnant.INCIVEK is contraindicated when combined with drugs that are highly dependent on CYP3A for clearance and for which elevated plasma concentrations are associated with serious and/or life-threatening events (narrow therapeutic index). INCIVEK is contraindicated when combined with drugs that strongly induce CYP3A and thus may lead to lower exposure and loss of efficacy of INCIVEK. Contraindicated drugs are listed below.Drug Class Drugs within Class that are

Contraindicated with INCIVEK Clinical Comments

Alpha 1-adrenoreceptor antagonist Alfuzosin Potential for hypotension or cardiac arrhythmia

Antimycobacterials Rifampin Rifampin significantly reduces telaprevir plasma concentrations.

Ergot derivatives Dihydroergotamine, ergonovine, ergotamine, methylergonovine

Potential for acute ergot toxicity characterized by peripheral vasospasm or ischemia

GI motility agent Cisapride Potential for cardiac arrhythmias

Herbal products St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum)

Plasma concentrations of telaprevir can be reduced by concomitant use of the herbal preparation St. John’s wort.

HMG CoA reductase inhibitors Lovastatin, simvastatin Potential for myopathy including rhabdomyolysis

Neuroleptic Pimozide Potential for serious and/or life-threatening adverse reactions such as cardiac arrhythmias

PDE5 inhibitor Sildenafil (Revatio®) or tadalafil (Adcirca®) [for treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension]a

Potential for PDE5 inhibitor-associated adverse events, including visual abnormalities, hypotension, prolonged erection, and syncope

Sedatives/hypnotics Orally administered midazolamb, triazolam

Prolonged or increased sedation or respiratory depression

a See table under Drug Interactions for co-administration of sildenafil and tadalafil when dosed for erectile dysfunction. b See table under Drug Interactions for parenterally administered midazolam. WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSPregnancy: Use with Ribavirin and Peginterferon Alfa. Ribavirin may cause birth defects and/or death of the exposed fetus. Extreme care must be taken to avoid pregnancy in female patients and in female partners of male patients. Ribavirin therapy should not be started unless a report of a negative pregnancy test has been obtained immediately prior to initiation of therapy. Because INCIVEK must be used in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, the contraindications and warnings applicable to those drugs are applicable to combination therapy. Female patients of childbearing potential and their male partners as well as male patients and their female partners must use 2 effective contraceptive methods during treatment and for 6 months after all treatment has ended. Female patients should have monthly pregnancy tests during treatment and during the 6-month period after stopping treatment. Extreme care must be taken to avoid pregnancy in female patients and in female partners of male patients as significant teratogenic and/or embryocidal effects have been demonstrated in all animal species exposed to ribavirin. Refer also to the prescribing information for ribavirin.Female Patients-Hormonal contraceptives may be continued but may not be reliable during INCIVEK dosing and for up to two weeks following cessation of INCIVEK. During this time, female patients of childbearing potential should use two effective non-hormonal methods of contraception. Examples may include barrier methods or intrauterine devices (IUDs). Two weeks after completion of INCIVEK treatment, hormonal contraceptives are again appropriate as one of the two required effective methods of birth control; however, specific prescribing information recommendations should be followed for the contraceptives.Serious Skin Reactions. Serious skin reactions, including Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) and Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) were reported in less than 1% of subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment compared to none who received peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone. These serious skin reactions required hospitalization, and all patients recovered. The presenting signs of DRESS may include rash, fever, facial edema, and evidence of internal organ involvement (e.g., hepatitis, nephritis). Eosinophilia may or may not be present. The presenting signs of SJS may include fever, target lesions, and mucosal erosions or ulcerations (e.g., conjunctivae, lips). If a serious skin reaction occurs, all components of INCIVEK combination treatment must be discontinued immediately and the patient should be promptly referred for urgent medical care. Rash. Rash developed in 56% of subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment. Severe rash (e.g., a generalized rash or rash with vesicles or bullae or ulcerations other than SJS) was reported in 4% of subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment compared to less than 1% who received peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone. The severe rash may have a prominent eczematous component. Patients with mild to moderate rashes should be followed for progression of rash or development of systemic symptoms. If rash progresses and becomes severe or if systemic symptoms develop, INCIVEK should be discontinued. Peginterferon alfa and ribavirin may be continued. If improvement is not observed within 7 days of INCIVEK discontinuation, sequential or simultaneous interruption or discontinuation of ribavirin and/or peginterferon alfa should be considered. If medically indicated, earlier interruption or discontinuation of ribavirin and peginterferon alfa should be considered. Patients should be monitored until the rash has resolved. INCIVEK must not be reduced or restarted if discontinued due to rash. Treatment of rash with oral antihistamines and/or topical corticosteroids may provide symptomatic relief but effectiveness of these measures has not been established. Treatment of rash with systemic corticosteroids is not recommended. Anemia. Anemia has been reported with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin therapy. The addition of INCIVEK to peginterferon alfa and ribavirin is associated with an additional decrease in hemoglobin concentrations. Hemoglobin values less than or equal to 10 g per dL were observed in 36% of subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment compared to 17% of subjects who received peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. Hemoglobin values less than 8.5 g per dL were observed in 14% of subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment compared to 5% of subjects receiving peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. In subjects receiving INCIVEK combination treatment, 4% discontinued INCIVEK, 1% discontinued INCIVEK combination treatment, and 32% underwent a ribavirin dose modification (reduction, interruption or discontinuation) due to anemia. In subjects treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone, there were two discontinuations and 12% underwent ribavirin dose modification due to anemia.Hemoglobin should be monitored prior to and at least at weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12 during INCIVEK combination treatment and as clinically appropriate. For the management of anemia, ribavirin dose reductions should be used (refer to the prescribing information for ribavirin for its dose reduction guidelines). If ribavirin dose reductions are inadequate, discontinuation of INCIVEK should be considered. If ribavirin is permanently discontinued for the management of anemia, INCIVEK must also be permanently discontinued. Ribavirin may be restarted per the dosing modification guidelines for ribavirin. The dose of INCIVEK must not be reduced and INCIVEK must not be restarted if discontinued.Drug Interactions. See the table above for a listing of drugs that are contraindicated for use with INCIVEK due to potentially life-threatening adverse events or potential loss of therapeutic effect to INCIVEK. Refer to the table included under Drug Interactions for established and other potentially significant drug-drug interactions.Laboratory Tests. HCV-RNA levels should be monitored at weeks 4 and 12 and as clinically indicated. Use of a sensitive real-time RT-PCR assay for monitoring HCV-RNA levels during treatment is recommended. The assay should have a lower limit of HCV-RNA quantification equal to or less than 25 IU per mL and a limit of HCV-RNA detection of approximately 10-15 IU per mL. For the purpose of assessing response-guided therapy eligibility, an “undetectable” HCV-RNA (Target Not Detected) result is required; a confirmed “detectable but below limit of quantification” HCV-RNA result should not be considered equivalent to an “undetectable” HCV-RNA result (reported as “Target Not Detected” or “HCV RNA Not Detected”).

Hematology evaluations (including white cell differential count) are recommended prior to and at weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12 and as clinically appropriate. Chemistry evaluations (electrolytes, serum creatinine, uric acid, hepatic enzymes, bilirubin, and TSH) are recommended as frequently as the hematology evaluations or as clinically indicated. Refer to the prescribing information for peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, including pregnancy testing requirements.General. INCIVEK must not be administered as monotherapy and must only be prescribed with both peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. Therefore, the prescribing information for peginterferon alfa and ribavirin must be consulted before starting treatment with INCIVEK.There are no clinical data on re-treating patients who have failed an HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitor-based treatment, nor are there data on repeated courses of INCIVEK.Hepatic Impairment. INCIVEK is not recommended for patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or C, score greater than or equal to 7) or patients with decompensated liver disease. Refer to prescribing information for peginterferon alfa and ribavirin which must be co-administered with INCIVEK.ADVERSE REACTIONSThe following adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the label:• Pregnancy: Use with Ribavirin and Peginterferon alfa• Serious Skin Reactions/Rash• Anemia INCIVEK must be administered with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. Refer to their respective prescribing information for their associated adverse reactions.Clinical Trials ExperienceBecause clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.The safety assessment is based on data from pooled adequate and well-controlled clinical trials including 1797 subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment and 493 who received peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. Serious adverse drug reactions occurred in 3% of subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment compared to none of the subjects treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. The most frequent serious adverse events in subjects treated with INCIVEK combination treatment were skin disorders (rash and/or pruritus) and anemia. Fourteen percent of subjects discontinued INCIVEK due to adverse drug reactions. Rash, anemia, fatigue, pruritus, nausea, and vomiting were the most frequent adverse drug reactions leading to discontinuation of INCIVEK.INCIVEK was administered in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. The following table lists adverse drug reactions that occurred in INCIVEK-treated subjects with an incidence at least 5% greater than in subjects receiving peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone.Clinical Adverse Drug Reactions Reported with at Least 5% Higher Frequency Among Subjects Receiving INCIVEK

*Rash and anemia based on SSC (Special Search Category) grouped terms.Description of Selected Adverse Drug ReactionsRash. In controlled clinical trials, rash events (all grades) were reported in 56% of subjects who received INCIVEK combination treatment and in 34% of subjects who received peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. Rash most frequently began during the first 4 weeks, but could occur at any time during INCIVEK combination treatment. Improvement of rash occurs after INCIVEK dosing completion or discontinuation; however, rashes may take weeks for complete resolution.Rash events led to discontinuation of INCIVEK alone in 6% of subjects and discontinuation of INCIVEK combination treatment in 1% of subjects.Anemia. In controlled clinical trials, the overall incidence and severity of anemia increased with INCIVEK combination treatment compared to peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone. The incidence of anemia adverse events was 36% with INCIVEK combination treatment compared to 17% with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone. A decrease in hemoglobin levels occurred during the first 4 weeks of treatment, with lowest values reached at the end of INCIVEK dosing. Hemoglobin values gradually returned to levels observed with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin after INCIVEK dosing was completed.Anorectal Signs and Symptoms. In the controlled clinical trials, 29% of subjects treated with INCIVEK combination treatment experienced anorectal adverse events, compared to 7% of those treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone. The majority of these events (e.g., hemorrhoids, anorectal discomfort, anal pruritus, and rectal burning) were mild to moderate in severity; less than 1% led to treatment discontinuation and all resolved during or after completion of INCIVEK dosing.Laboratory abnormalitiesWhite Blood Cells: Treatment with peginterferon alfa is associated with decreases in mean values for total white blood cell, absolute neutrophil, and absolute lymphocyte count. More INCIVEK-treated subjects had decreases in lymphocyte counts to 499/mm3 or less (15% compared to 5%). Decreases in total white cell counts to 1,499/mm3 or less were comparable (8% compared to 5%). The incidence of decreases in absolute neutrophil counts to 749/mm3 or less was 15% in subjects treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone compared to 12% among those treated with INCIVEK combination treatment. Platelets: Treatment with peginterferon alfa is associated with decreases in mean platelet counts. More patients treated with INCIVEK combination treatment had decreases in mean platelet values of all grades: 47% compared to 36% treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone. Three percent of INCIVEK combination treatment subjects had decreases to 49,999/mm3 or less compared to 1% of those treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin-treated alone.Bilirubin: Forty one percent of INCIVEK-treated subjects compared to 28% of peginterferon alfa and ribavirin-treated subjects had all grade elevations in bilirubin levels; 4% and 2% of subjects, respectively, had greater than or equal to 2.6 x ULN elevations. Bilirubin levels increased most steeply during the first 1 to 2 weeks of INCIVEK dosing, stabilized and between Weeks 12 and 16 were at baseline levels. Uric Acid: During the INCIVEK combination treatment period, 73% of subjects had elevated uric acid levels compared to 29% for those treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin alone. Shifts to greater than or equal to 12.1 mg per dL from baseline in uric acid levels were also more frequent among subjects treated with INCIVEK (7%) compared to peginterferon alfa and ribavirin (1%). Less than 1% of subjects had clinical events of gout/gouty arthritis; none were serious and none resulted in treatment discontinuation.DRUG INTERACTIONSPotential for INCIVEK to Affect Other DrugsINCIVEK is an inhibitor of CYP3A. Co-administration of INCIVEK with drugs that are primarily metabolized by CYP3A may result in increased plasma concentrations of such drugs, which could increase or prolong their therapeutic effect and adverse reactions. INCIVEK is also an inhibitor of P-gp. Co-administration of INCIVEK with drugs that are substrates for P-gp transport may result in increased plasma concentrations of such drugs, which could increase or prolong their therapeutic effect and adverse reactions. If dose adjustments of concomitant medications are made during INCIVEK treatment, they should be re-adjusted after administration of INCIVEK is completed.Potential for Other Drugs to Affect INCIVEKINCIVEK is a substrate of CYP3A and P-gp; therefore, drugs that induce CYP3A and/or P-gp may decrease INCIVEK plasma concentrations and reduce the therapeutic effect of INCIVEK. Co-administration of INCIVEK with drugs that inhibit CYP3A and/or P-gp may increase INCIVEK plasma concentrations. Established and Other Potentially Significant Drug InteractionsThe following table provides effect of concentration of INCIVEK or concomitant drug with INCIVEK. These recommendations are based on either drug interaction trials (indicated with *) or predicted interactions due to the expected magnitude of interaction and potential for serious adverse events or loss of efficacy.Established and Other Potentially Significant Drug Interactions: Alterations in Dose or Regimen May Be Recommended Based on Drug Interaction Trials or Predicted InteractionConcomitant Drug Class: Drug Name
