Effectiveness of hepatitis C antiviral treatment and feasibility of hepatitis C elimination goal.
Objectives: Second-generation direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) have shown high efficacy in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections in clinical trials. This study aimed to estimate the effectiveness in real-life conditions and their capacity to eliminate HCV infection in the general population.
Methods: In this observational cohort study, patients with active HCV infection who commenced DAA treatment between 2015 and 2020 in Navarre, Spain, were studied. Sustained virological response (SVR), defined as an undetectable viral load 12 weeks after the end of treatment, was evaluated until the end of 2021.
Results: Of a total 1366 HCV-infected patients that commenced treatment, 19.3% (n = 263) were HIV-coinfected. After the first DAA treatment, SVR was achieved in 96.6% (n = 1320/1366) of patients and in 97.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 96.6%-98.3%) of those who completed treatment (per-protocol analysis; n = 1320/1351). SVR was achieved in 97.9% (n = 1066/1089) and 96.9% (n = 254/262) of mono-infected and HIV-coinfected patients, respectively. Thirty-one patients had virological failure due to non-response (n = 19), poor compliance (n = 9), and with adverse events (n = 3). Of 27 patients that received a second treatment, 24 attained SVR (one after a third treatment), two died, and one that did not achieve SVR declined a third treatment. Three patients were re-infected, re-treated, and achieved SVR. At the end of the study, 1344 patients (98.4%, 95% CI 97.6%-98.9%) had achieved SVR, and only 1.8% needed more than one course of treatment. All patients who completed the treatment and were followed-up achieved SVR.
Conclusion: With DAAs, SVR was achieved in all patients with active HCV infection who completed follow-up, and a second course of treatment was only necessary in a small proportion of patients. Adherence to treatment is essential for HCV infection elimination.
期刊介绍:
Postgraduate Medicine is a rapid peer-reviewed medical journal published for physicians. Tracing its roots back to 1916, Postgraduate Medicine was established by Charles Mayo, MD, as a peer-to-peer method of communicating the latest research to aid physicians when making treatment decisions, and it maintains that aim to this day. In addition to its core subscriber base, Postgraduate Medicine is distributed to hundreds of US-based physicians within internal medicine and family practice.
