简要总结
To identify side effects of Sofosbuvir/ Daclatasvir treatment regimen of chronic HCV GT-4 infection.
- To assess the occurrence and the prevalence of RAVs in patients with treatment failure and relapse after sofosbuvir and daclatasvir with assessment of their types .
- To examine the GT4 subtypes by phylogenetic analysis and baseline sequence variability among subtypes and their potential impact on treatment outcome and development of viral resistance in patients who received a regimen of Sofosbuvir/ Daclatasvir for treatment of chronic HCV GT-4.
- To assess the differences in patient demographics across GT4 subtypes.
详细描述
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) chronically infects approximately 120-130 million individuals worldwide .Mortality related to HCV infection has been estimated at approximately 300,000 deaths per year..
Direct antiviral agents (DAAs) effectively eradicate HCV and rapidly improve residual liver functions. Current HCV eradication rates have exceeded 90% in a very short time .
Hepatitis C virus genotype 4 (GT4) is genetically diverse, with 17 confirmed subtypes, and comprises approximately 13% of infections worldwide [3]. In Egypt, GT4 accounts for approximately 90% of infections, with subtype 4a predominating .
Sofosbuvir and daclatasvir are generally well tolerated with only a few adverse effects reported.
Hepatitis C virus resistant associated variants (RAVs) are seen in most patients who do not achieve sustained virological response (SVR). These resistance-associated mutations depend on the class of direct-acting antiviral drugs used and also vary between hepatitis C virus genotypes and subtypes.
