French guidelines February 2016 1/ Treat all patients with liver fibrosis F2 F3 F4and.. 2/ Treat all drugs users and inmates even if no liver fibrosis 100% of frenchDU/ inmates have to be treated for HCV infection! 4

Introduction (1) • HCV rate is higher in the prisoners population than in the general’s one in France, between 5 and 7 % (INVS 2004, PREVACAR) • Prisoners accumulate risk factors before their confinement but the prison in itself represents a risk factor: syringes or straw share, home-made tattoos…
Introduction (2) • HCV incidence in prisons was not known • Screening of HCV is systematically proposed in the entrance to detention in France, recommended by the Methodological Guide of sanitary care is not still applied correctly • point of care testing (POCT) use could constitute an interesting alternative in classic serology • POCT was recommended in French HCV experts report in 2014 and in national guidelines in 2016
Objective • use HCV POCT in prison • as a supplement to the classic serology • study the incidence of new HCV infections in prisoners
Methods (1) • HCV prevalence in our establishment is situated in national average around 7 % • HCV serology realized by venous way was proposed to all incomers in Perpignan detention center • average 1500 per year
Methods (2) • POCT was proposed to 3 types of prisoners: • 1/refusal or impossibility of venous way • 2/transfer of another penitentiary and previous negative serology • 3/presence in detention 12-month-old superior and previous negative serology
Point Of Care Testing • POCT/DBS HCV / HIV / HBV • Alternative to blood test, but in case of positive test blood test confirmation is necessary • Quick on digital puncture • Immediate results • Free, renewal of HCVstatus as soon as necessary 15
Methods (2) • In case of positivity we did FIBROSCAN • And complementary blood tests
Mobile FIBROSCAN • Liver stiffness = measurement of hepatic elasticity to detect liver fibrosis and liver cirrhosis diagnosis • Uninvasive testing with rapid results, combined with DBS/POCT • Performed by a nurse trained in the framework of a Memorandum of Cooperation (HSPT-Law Article 51) 16
Results (1) • 333 HCV POCT was realized in 24 months • group 1 15 % (refusal) • group 2 27 % (transfer) • group 3 58 % (> 12 months detention)
Results (2) • 2 serology were positive by POCT • 2 inmates were imprisoned for more than 6 months • viral load was both positive • One patient had gone out in permission one week • One patient had never gone out of detention • Use of drugs was route of contamination in 2 cases
Results (3) • Calculated incidence in prison was 3/1000/year • potentially 470 new cases of HCV infection in France a year among the prison population • 78246 prisoners on May 1st, 2016 in France
Risk of HCV reinfectionin IVDU and prisoners • Simmons and al, CID 2016: 62, 683-694 • 14 studies high-risk patients IVDU and prisoners • Risk rate = 22.3/1000 person years of follow up after HCV treatment
Discussion / conclusions • HCV POCT are useful in jailhouses because there are HCV high risk place • These route of contamination could be more than 10% of HCV new cases • So it was also necessary to give harm reduction tools for all prisoners like syringes share
