Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir/Voxilaprevir for Hepatitis C Virus Retreatment in Difficult-to-treat Patients: A Real-life Observational Study from India
Journal of clinical and experimental hepatology(2024)
摘要
Background and aim: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment fails to achieve sustained virological response at 12 weeks (SVR12) in 5-10 % and requires retreatment with second-line drugs. We report our experience of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir use for HCV retreatment in a small cohort of difficult-to-treat Indian patients. Methods: We reviewed our HCV databases to identify the patients who had failed to achieve SVR12 after treatment with sofosbuvir in combination with either daclatasvir, ledipasvir, or velpatasvir with/without ribavirin on one or more occasions. Participants were excluded if they had (i) decompensated cirrhosis, (ii) HIV coinfection or (iii) chronic kidney disease, or (iv) prior organ transplantation. All the participants were treated with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/ voxilaprevir plus ribavirin for 12 weeks. Treatment outcome was categorized as successful or failure if HCV RNA was undetectable or detectable at SVR12, respectively. Results: Fifteen patients (male 67 %; genotype-3 80 %) were included in the analysis. Ten (67 %) had cirrhosis. Five, eight, and two participants had previously failed one, two, and three courses of pegylated-interferon free, sofosbuvir containing direct acting antiviral (DAA) regimens respectively. Fourteen participants had failed to at least one course of the sofosbuvir/velpatasvir combination. Fourteen patients achieved SVR12, and one patient was lost to follow-up. Treatment was successful in 100 % and 93.3 % of per-protocol (PP) and intention to treat (ITT) analyses, respectively. Conclusion: Sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir combination is an effective second-line therapy in India for difficult-to-treat HCV patients. ( J CLIN EXP HEPATOL 2024;14:101314)
