ABSTRACT
Previous studies demonstrated that urinary 8-oxodG is a predictive biomarker for Opisthorchis viverrini (OV)-associated hepatobiliary disease (HBD) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). This study examined the effects of praziquantel treatment on the profile of urinary 8-oxodG in relation to HBD status. Infection with OV, levels of urinary 8-oxodG, and HBD status in terms of periductal fibrosis (PDF) assessed by abdominal ultrasonography (US) were monitored and compared in cohorts of participants in Khon Kaen, Thailand, before and 1 year after praziquantel treatment. Urinary 8-oxodG levels significantly decreased after treatment compared with the baseline level in OV-infected participants who had no HBD (PDF negative; PDF-ve) (N = 14). Levels of 8-oxodG were unchanged after treatment in OV-infected subjects (OV+ve) who had positive PDF (N = 52). Within the positive PDF (PDF+ve) group who became PDF-ve after treatment, there was no significant change in 8-oxodG levels between pre-and posttreatment (reversible PDF = 65.3%). In those who had persistent PDF+ve at both ultrasound sampling points, there was no significant difference in urinary 8-oxodG levels between pre- and posttreatment (persistent PDF = 34.6%). Based on a logistic regression model and receiver operation curve analysis, the increase of 8-oxodG levels was found to be associated with increasing risk of PDF. Measurement of urinary 8-oxodG and US increased the likelihood of discovering persistent PDF, which is a predictable condition for the patients at risk of OV-associated CCA. To identify high-risk individuals for CCA, it is useful to perform US in combination with urinary 8-oxodG measurement.
