Sir, I have read the excellent paper by Shifflet and Wu.1 Watanabe et al reported that several metabolic disturbances, such as obesity, insulin resistance, and hepatic steatosis, are significant risk factors for decreased sustained virologic response to interferon and ribavirin combination antiviral therapy in chronic hepatitis C patients.2 It should be noted, for completeness, the influence of...
Hepatitis C viral protease inhibitors increase sustained virologic response rates compared to interferon and ribavirin but also add side effects. Telaprevir and boceprevir are structurally similar, and share cross-resistant mutations. This case report highlights successful management of telaprevir skin rash and anal discomfort by switching to boceprevir.
BACKGROUND There is no established therapy for hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection. The aim of this retrospective, multicenter case series was to assess the effects of ribavirin as monotherapy for solid-organ transplant recipients with prolonged HEV viremia. METHODS We examined the records of 59 patients who had received a solid-organ transplant (37 kidney-transplant recipients, 10 liver-transp...
The correlation of neutralizing antibodies to treatment outcome in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has not been established. The aim of this study was to determine whether neutralizing antibodies could be used as an outcome predictor in patients with chronic HCV, genotype 1, infection treated with pegylated interferon-α and ribavirin. Thirty-nine patients with chronic he...
BACKGROUND Current therapy for chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is effective in less than 50% of patients infected with HCV genotype 1. Telaprevir, a protease inhibitor specific to the HCV nonstructural 3/4A serine protease, rapidly reduced HCV RNA levels in early studies. METHODS We randomly assigned patients infected with HCV genotype 1 to one of three telaprevir groups or to the c...
BACKGROUND In phase 2 studies, treatment with the all-oral combination of the nucleotide polymerase inhibitor sofosbuvir and the NS5A inhibitor ledipasvir resulted in high rates of sustained virologic response among previously untreated patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infection. METHODS We conducted a phase 3, open-label study involving previously untreated patients with chro...
BACKGROUND This study investigates whether dose modifications for adverse hematologic effects or the use of hematopoietic growth factors influenced the outcome of therapy for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in patients who were coinfected with HCV and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and who were participants in a randomized, controlled trial. METHODS Subjects were randomized to receive r...
Background and purpose: The standard of care treatment for infected patients with HCV is based on a combination of pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin. Recently, the rs12979860 SNP polymorphism, located upstream of the interleukin 28B gene, was shown to be strongly associated with response to anti-HCV therapy. This study investigated the distribution of the (C/T) polymorphism with sust...
BACKGROUND & AIMS Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients with a history of injection drug use have low rates of initiation and completion of interferon-based therapies. This study evaluated efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of a 12-week all-oral regimen of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir and dasabuvir+ribavirin in HCV genotype 1-infected patients on stable opioid replacement therapy. ...
background il-33 is a novel member of the il-1 family, which has been shown to play an important role in t helper 2 (th2)-associated immune responses. recent studies have suggested a possible role for il-33 in the pathogenesis of liver damage during acute and chronic hepatitis; furthermore, il-33 may be involved in the development and progression of liver fibrosis. objectives to evaluate serum ...
