Hepatic Dialysis- Liver Support
MARS™
Rationale
Indications
Outcomes
Future Directions
Hepatic Failure
• Definition: Loss of functional liver cell mass
below a critical level results in liver failure
(acute or complicating a chronic liver
disease)
• Results in: hepatic encephalopathy & coma,
jaundice, cholestasis, ascites, bleeding, renal
injury, death
Hepatic Failure
• Production of Endogenous Toxins & Drug Metabolic
Failure
• Bile Acids, Bilirubin, Prostacyclins, NO, Toxic
fatty acids, Thiols, Indol-phenol metabolites
• These toxins cause further necrosis/apoptosis
and a vicious cycle
• Detrimental to renal, brain and bone marrow
function; results in poor vascular tone

Technical Aspects
• Filters :
– MARS™ flux : 2m2 ECV = 150 ml + lines, 600ml 20% Alb
– MARSMini™: 0.6m2 ECV = 56ml + lines, 500ml 20% Alb *** (not
Available in US)
– PRISMARS™
– 1 kit = $ 2700 (USD)
• Flow Rates :
– Blood flow rate: 4-10 ml/kg/min
– Albumin dialysate Flow Rate = BFR
– UFR : 2000ml/h/1.73m2 in CVVH or in CVVHDF mode
• Anticoagulation:
– No anticoagulation
– Heparin (5 U/kg/h)
– Citrate

Albumin Bound Toxins
Removed During MARS
Therapy
• Aromatic Amino Acids
• Bilirubin
• Bile Acids
• Copper
• Middle and Short Chain
Fatty Acids
• Nitric Oxide (SNitrosothiol)
• Protoporphyrin
Water Soluble Substances
Removed During MARS
Therapy
• Ammonia
• Creatinine
• Tryptophan

Alpha
• Urea

Substances Not
Removed During MARS™
• Clotting Factors (Factor VII 50,000
Daltons)
– Improvement in Factor VII levels after
repeated treatments in small studies

Rationale
• To provide an environment facilitating
recovery- isolated or as a component of
MOSF Therapy
• To prolong the window of opportunity for
LTx : Bridge to Transplantation
• To allow waiting for the native liver
recovery: Bridge to recovery

Indications
• Intoxications (US ***)
• Acute Liver Failure (ALF)
– Hepatorenal Syndrome
•
•
•
•
Acute on Chronic Liver Failure (AoCLF)
Hepatic Encephalopathy
Refractory Pruritus in Liver Failure
Sepsis / SIRS / MODS
Intoxications leading
to Acute Liver Failure
• Exogenous:
– Acetaminophen
– Amanita Toxin
• Endogenous:
– Inborn Error Metabolism
– Wilson disease, neonatal hemochromatosis
• Removal of inflammatory Toxins
– Sepsis/SIRS
– MOSF
See appendix for references
Acute Liver Failure
• Improvement in native liver function?
– Increased avoidance of liver transplant in adult
patients with fulminate hepatic failure
– Camus, C., Ther Apher Dial 2009 Dec, 13(6): 549-55
• Improvement in survival:
» 67% survival in MARS group at 7 days
» 25% survival in MARS group at 30 days
» 0% survival in control group at 7 days

Acute on Chronic
Liver Failure
• Increased Survival
– 24 adult patients with AoCLF
• 92% 30 day survival in MARS group
• 50% 30 day survival in control group
– Heemann U., Hepatology 36: 949-958, 2002
Benefits of MARS
• Improvement in Hemodynamic Stability
– Increased systemic vascular resistance
– Increased mean arterial pressure
– Decreased portal venous pressure in AoCLF
– Improvement in renal blood flow (RBF)

Risks
• Hemodynamic
Instability
– Has been seen
primarily in children
weighing < 10kg
also undergoing
hemodialysis
– Overall
improvement with
continued therapy
• Thrombocytopenia
• Bleeding
Complications
• Transfusion of Blood
Products
Cost Benefit
• Positive benefit in terms of health cost
reductions using MARS
• Kantola et.al. Cost-utility of MARS treatment in ALF.
World Journal of Gastroenter 2010; 16; 2227-34
• Hessel et.al. Cost-effectiveness of MARS in patients
with acute-on-chronic liver failure. Gastroenterol
Hepatol 2010; 22: 213-20
• Positive impact on reduction of Pharmacy
utilization (albumin)- compared to SPAD
– Drexler et. al. Albumin dialysis MARS: impact of albumin
dialysate concentration on detoxification efficacy. Ther
Apher Dial 2009; 13; 393-8
Non-Biological
artificial support
• Issues:
– Still don’t understand the complexity of the liver
and the causes of hepatic encephalopathy/coma
– May be removing both good (growth factors-for
liver regeneration) and bad substances
– Need to standardize end points in these studies
– Multicenter RCTs are desperately required in
Pediatrics
Future Horizons
Huge potential Impact on critical care & Transplantation
Potential for managing patients chronically as an
outpatient with intractable pruritus- High impact on
quality of life:
Leckie et.al. Outpatient albumin dialysis for Cholestatic patients with
intractable pruritus Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2012; 35: 696-714
Schaefer et.al. MARS dialysis in children with cholestatic pruritus.
