Clinical, Journal: HIV Coinfection Predicts Failure of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir in Treatment-Naïve Noncirrhotic Patients With HCV Genotype 1. (Pubmed Central) - May 30, 2019 A multivariable logistic regression model including age, sex, liver stiffness, G1 subtype, HCV-RNA, HIV, and treatment duration showed the factors associated with treatment failure to be male sex (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.49; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.27-4.91; P = .008) and HIV infection (aOR, 2.23; 95% CI, 1.13-4.38; P = .020). The results of this large prospective study analyzing outcomes for LDV/SOF against HCV G1 in treatment-naïve noncirrhotic patients suggest that HIV infection is a predictor of treatment failure in patients with chronic hepatitis C.

Journal: Treatment of HCV in the Department of Corrections in the Era of Oral Medications. (Pubmed Central) - May 7, 2019 Multiple logistic regression of GT1 patients identified lower FIB-4 ( p = .008) and treatment clinic ( p = .01) as independent predictors of SVR12. HCV treatment in the DOC by telemedicine with DAA is not only feasible but has a very high SVR12 similar to published trials.

Clinical, Journal: Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir Effectively Treats Hepatitis C Virus Infections in an Underserved Population. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 12, 2019 This finding also highlights the need for additional measures to prevent loss to follow-up and overdose-related deaths among PWID. Our results suggest that direct-acting antivirals, particularly ledipasvir/sofosbuvir, are generally effective for achieving SVR among underserved patients with HCV infections and may help reduce inequalities in HCV prevalence and outcomes for this vulnerable population.

Journal: No difference between direct-acting antivirals for hepatitis C in hepatocellular carcinoma risk. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 11, 2019 There are no significant differences between DAA regimens in HCC risk after antiviral treatment. This suggests that DAAs do not have direct carcinogenic effects as it would be unlikely that different DAAs would have identical carcinogenic effects.

Journal: Identification of 19 Novel Hepatitis C Virus Subtypes-Further Expanding HCV Classification. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 6, 2019 Despite the presence of polymorphisms at resistance-associated substitution positions, 18 of the 19 patients treated with sofosbuvir-containing therapy achieved SVR12. Nineteen novel HCV subtypes were identified, suggesting an even greater genetic diversity of HCV subtypes than previously recognized.
