Eliminating hepatitis C virus infection in prisons: 7 years of experience (Poster Area) - May 12, 2022 - Abstract #EASLILC2022EASL_ILC_1941; All the 79 patients were initially treated with Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir and Daclatasvir with or without ribavirin (according to criteria defined in initial protocols) and more recently, Grazoprevir/Elbasvir and pangenotypic drugs, namely Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir, and Glecaprevir/Pibrentasvir. Our encouraging data is a result from an optimized partnership between the healthcare team in prisons and our hospital, allowing a fast diagnosis, an agile disease staging and adequate treatment, minimizing future risk of transmission and taking us closer to eliminating the infection by 2030.

Clinical impact of drug interaction in the use of antipsychotics by HCV patients treated with pangenotypic direct-acting antivirals (Poster Area) - May 12, 2022 - Abstract #EASLILC2022EASL_ILC_1858; Potential DDIs between concomitant medication and the DAAs, Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir [SOF/VEL] and Glecaprevir/Pibrentasvir [GLE/PIB], were evaluated using the University of Liverpool Hepatitis Interactions database...Two AE were reported with GLE/ PIB for quetiapine and paliperidone, and none with SOF/VEL... This analysis confirms that the greater use of SOF/VEL in patients with antipsychotic treatment may be due to its favorable DDI profile, which implies a lower number of adverse effects and required clinical actions.

Clinical, Journal: The use of antiviral drugs in children. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 25, 2022 Some drugs are used to treat congenital infections, such as valganciclovir and ganciclovir in congenital cytomegalovirus infection...Treatment with direct antiviral agents against hepatitis C virus is approved for children over the age of three; it consists in different therapeutic regimens chosen on the basis of the viral genotype (ledipasvir/sofosbuvir for genotypes 1, 4, 5 and 6, sofosbuvir/ribavirin for genotypes 2 and 3, sofosbuvir/velpatasvir and glecaprevir/pibrentasvir for all genotypes) and it has dramatically changed the course of the illness. Many molecules have been studied in order to treat SARS-CoV-2 infection, but only remdesivir seems to play a role in shortening recovery time, although inclusion criteria are very specific and data on the use in children is limited.

SIMPLIFICATION OF CARE FOR HCV IS EFFECTIVE DURING THE COVID PANDEMIC: A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY OF HCV TREATMENT UTILIZING THE BRITISH COLUMBIA HEPATITIS C NETWORK ([VIRTUAL]) - Mar 25, 2022 - Abstract #CDDW2022CDDW_214; There was slightly less use of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir at (2% vs 4% pre-pandemic).The proportion of patients who completed lab work for SVR was similar during the pandemic (n=83/97, 85.6%) compared to pre-pandemic (n=120/143, 83.9%)...Conclusions Less persons were treated during the COVID pandemic, which may deter progress towards HCV elimination targets. Very high SVR12 and treatment completion rates during the pandemic suggest that patients can be effectively treated with less pre-treatment investigations and fewer appointments.
