Direct Acting Antiviral Agents in Korean Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C and Hemophilia Who Are Treatment-Naive or Treatment-Experienced

초록

Background/Aims: Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is a major comorbidity in patients with hemophilia. Methods: Patients (n=30) were enrolled between September 2015 and April 2016. Twenty-six patients were genotype 1 (1b, n=21; 1a, n=5) and four patients were genotype 2a/2b. Among 21 patients with genotype lb, Y93H resistance-associated variants (RAVs) were detected in three patients (14.3%). We evaluated sustained virologic response (SVRs) at 12 weeks, as well as relapse and safety. Results: Five patients with genotype la and three patients with genotype lb (RAV positive) received ledipasvir/sofosbuvir for 12 weeks. SVR12 rate was 100% (8/8). Eleven patients with genotype lb were treatment-naive and received daclatasvir plus asunaprevir for 24 weeks. SVR12 rate was 91% (10/11). One patient experienced viral breakthrough without RAV at 12 weeks. Seven treatment experienced patients with genotype lb received daclatasvir plus asunaprevir for 24 weeks. SVR12 rate was 85.7% (6/7). One patient experienced viral breakthrough with RAV (L31M, Y93H) at 12 weeks. Four patients with genotype 2a/2b received sofosbuvir plus ribavirin for 12 weeks. SVR12 rate was 100% (4/4). No serious adverse event-related discontinuations were noted. Conclusions: New direct acting antiviral treatment achieved high SVRs rates at 12 weeks in CHC patients with hemophilia without serious adverse events.
