(Pubmed Central) - Feb 11, 2018 P3 Conclusions Once-daily treatment with glecaprevir-pibrentasvir for either 8 weeks or 12 weeks achieved high rates of sustained virologic response among patients with HCV genotype 1 or 3 infection who did not have cirrhosis.

Journal: Intra-hepatic Depletion of Mucosal Associated Invariant T cells in Hepatitis C Virus-induced Liver Inflammation. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 30, 2017 Patient with renal impairment require close monitoring and should be treated by providers extensively experienced with SOF-containing regimens. In analyses of paired blood and liver samples from patients with chronic HCV infection before, during, and after antiviral therapy with sofosbuvir and velpatasvir, we found that intrahepatic MAIT cells are activated by monocyte-derived cytokines and depleted in HCV-induced liver inflammation.

Journal: Disparate access to treatment regimens in chronic hepatitis C patients: data from the TRIO network. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 3, 2017 We evaluated patients in the TRIO network who were prescribed sofosbuvir (SOF)-based regimens to determine reasons for not starting treatment...In fact, almost half of the nonstart patients had advanced fibrosis scores (F3 or F4) and should have been prioritized to start treatment. As better treatment for HCV with high efficacy and low side effect rates become available, the disparity in access to treatment, as evidenced by the high nonstart rate in the Medicaid-covered group, must be resolved.
