Abstract

Background

Introduced in 2013–2014, the second- and third-wave directly acting antivirals (DAAs) have strongly enhanced the efficacy and tolerability of anti-HCV treatment, with a sustained virological response (SVR) in 90–95% of cases treated. The aim of this paper was to focus on the type and prevalence of viral strains with a reduced sensitivity to DAAs and on treatment choices for DAA-experienced patients.

Methods

The Medline was searched for “HCV infection”, “HCV treatment”, “Directly acting antivirals”,“HCV resistance”.

Results

Most patients who did not achieve an SVR have been found to be infected with HCV mutant strains with a reduced susceptibility to these drugs. These mutants occur frequently in the NS5A region, with a moderate frequency in the NS3/4A regions and rarely in the NS5B region. Treatment-induced mutants resistant to NS5A DAAs persist for years after treatment discontinuation, whereas those resistant to the NS3 DAAs have a shorter duration.

Conclusions

Patients who have failed HCV treatment with DAA agents have several re-treatment options, but re-treatment selection may be intricate and resistance testing is recommended to optimize this choice. It is, therefore, important to bear in mind that the correct determination of HCV genotype and subtype and the identification of RASs are essential elements for choosing the optimal re-treatment. It is supposed that it is useful to give readers some other suggestions regarding therapeutic reprocessing.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
