As most patients fail to achieve alcohol abstinence, it is essential to identify alternative treatment options in order to improve the outcome of ALD patients. Methods: Evaluating two large cohorts of patients with ALD from the USA and Korea with a total of 12,006 patients, we investigated the effect on survival of aspirin, metformin, metoprolol, dopamine, and dobutamine drugs in patients with ALD between 2000 and 2020. Patient data were obtained through the “The Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics consortium,” an open-source, multi-stakeholder, and interdisciplinary collaborative effort. Results: The use of aspirin (p = 0.000, p = 0.000), metoprolol (p = 0.002, p = 0.000), and metformin (p = 0.000, p = 0.000) confers a survival benefit for both AUSOM- and NY-treated cohorts. Need of catecholamines dobutamine (p = 0.000, p = 0.000) and dopamine (p = 0.000, p = 0.000) was strongly indicative of poor survival. β-Blocker treatment with metoprolol (p = 0.128, p = 0.196) or carvedilol (p = 0.520, p = 0.679) was not shown to be protective in any of the female subgroups. Conclusion: Overall, our data fill a large gap in long-term, real-world data on patients with ALD, confirming an impact of metformin, acetylsalicylic acid, and β-blockers on ALD patient’s survival. However, gender and ethnic background lead to diverse efficacy in those patients. date: 2023-09 date_type: published publisher: Karger id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00035529 official_url: https://doi.org/10.1159/000529914 ppn_swb: 1907415459 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-355291 language: eng bibsort: ITZELTIMOEFFICACYOF2023 full_text_status: public publication: Digestive Diseases volume: 41 number: 5 pagerange: 780-788 pages: 9 issn: 0257-2753 (Druck-Ausg.), 1421-9875 (Online-Ausg.) edition: Zweitveröffentlichung citation: Itzel, Timo ; Falconer, Thomas ; Roig, Ana ; Daza, Jimmy ; Park, Jimyung ; Cheong, Jae Youn ; Park, Rae Woong ; Wiest, Isabella ; Ebert, Matthias P ; Hripcsak, George ; Teufel, Andreas (2023) Efficacy of Co-Medications in Patients with Alcoholic Liver Disease.
