Treatment Issues • Genotypes 2/3 – nothing new on horizon • Genotype 1 – failure rate 50-60% • No good options for treatment failures
Direct Acting Anivirals (DAAs) • DAA-based triple combination therapy led to improved SVR rates over current therapy in Phase II trials • 61–85% SVR with telaprevir-based therapy4–6 • 54–75% SVR with boceprevir-based therapy7 • Telaprevir and boceprevir have recently completed Phase III trials in treatment-naïve patients • Telaprevir: ADVANCE8 and ILLUMINATE9 • Boceprevir: SPRINT-210

Summary of Tripple therapy with DAAs • Only for Genotype 1 Hepatitis C • Uses Peg Inf + Ribavirin + DDA • Improved response in naïve patients (65-75%) • Improved response in prior non-responders • Improved response in difficult to treat groups
COST • Cost of treatment • genotype 1 £12,782 for 48 weeks treatment • genotype 2 or 3 £5,233 for 24 weeks • Supportive therapy with: • Epoetin - 8000 units twice weekly = £3,216 for 6 months • G-CSF - Neupogen 30million units/wk = £1752 for 6 months • Cost of addition of DAA £14,000 - £24,000 • To be confirmed Sept 2011
