Various Paradigms BeingDeveloped Simultaneously • PEG IFN + • Ribavirin + • Single DAA • PIs • Nucs • NS5A • Cyclophilin • antagonist IFN-free regimens PEG IFN + Ribavirin + DAA-1 + DAA-2 • Some trials involve more than one of these designs • PEG IFN lambda being evaluated • Proof of concept for curative potential of IFN-free regimens • had been established
Issues in HCV therapy • Genotype differences • 2 versus 3 versus 1 • 1a poorer response than 1b • Easier to develop resistance • IL28b response • CC versus TT • Prior exposureto IFN and DAA • Extent of liver disease • DDI
HCV and HIV coinfected • Select who to treat • Moderate to severe fibrosis F3-4 • Assess fibrosis • Liver biopsy • Serum tests APRI FIB-4 • Transient elastography • Control HIV • Encourage adherence • Avoid alcohol
