Hepatitis C reinfection after sustained virological response.
BACKGROUND & AIMS On-going risk behaviour can lead to hepatitis C virus (HCV) reinfection following successful treatment. We aimed to assess the incidence of persistent HCV reinfection in a population of people who inject drugs (PWID) who had achieved sustained virological response (SVR) seven years earlier. METHODS In 2004-2006 we conducted a multicentre treatment trial comprising HCV genoty...
متن کاملHepatitis C virus reinfection among prisoners with sustained virological response after treatment for chronic hepatitis C.
BACKGROUND & AIMS We estimated HCV reinfection rate and its associated risk factors in inmates with chronic hepatitis C who had achieved sustained virological response (SVR) after completing combination therapy while in prison. METHODS Individuals who had achieved an SVR after treatment provided from January 2003 to December 2009 at four prisons in Catalonia, had been tested annually for HCV ...
متن کاملHepatocellular Carcinoma in a Non-cirrhotic Patient with Sustained Virological Response after Hepatitis C Treatment
Chronic infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV) is one of the main risk factors for the development of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the emergence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in non-cirrhotic HCV patients, especially after sustained virological response (SVR) is an unusual event. Recently, it has been suggested that HCV genotype 3 may have a particular oncogenic mech...
متن کاملHigh sustained virological response rates using imported generic direct acting antiviral treatment for hepatitis C
BACKGROUND High prices of direct acting antivirals (DAAs) for hepatitis C virus (HCV) can lead to restrictions on access to treatment in high- and middle-income countries. An increasing number of people in these countries are treating their HCV infection with generic drugs produced in India, China, Bangladesh or Egypt. This analysis assessed the efficacy of generic imported DAAs. METHODS Pati...
متن کاملSlower Fibrosis Progression Among Liver Transplant Recipients With Sustained Virological Response After Hepatitis C Treatment
BACKGROUND The natural course of hepatic fibrosis in HCV allograft recipients with sustained virological response (SVR) after anti-HCV therapy remains debatable. The aim of this study was to examine the progression of fibrosis in a cohort of patients who achieved SVR compared with those without treatment. METHODS The 167 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were chosen from a...
