Completed
Conditions
Chronic Hepatitis c
Registration Number
NCT03348059
Lead Sponsor
Hospices Civils de Lyon
Brief Summary

The hypothesis was to check whether baseline anti-E1E2 antibodies could predict virological outcome in Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients receiving direct-acting antiviral treatment

Detailed Description

Presence of anti-E1E2 antibodies was previously associated with spontaneous cure of hepatitis C virus (HCV). The hypothesis was to check whether baseline anti-E1E2 antibodies could predict virological outcome in HCV-infected patients receiving direct-acting antiviral treatment

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of patients with positive anti-E1E2 antibody level at treatment initiationBaseline (treatment initiation day)

Anti-E1E2 antibody levels were determined using optical densities obtained after dilution of patients' serum samples at 1/250 and 1/500. Samples with anti-E1E2 levels above 950 (OD value× 1000) were considered positive
