Effectiveness of Ledipasvir-Sofosbuvir 12 Weeks After Hepatitis C Virus Genotype 1 Infection and the Factors Associated With Sustained Virologic Response: A Retrospective Study
In this study, we found that LDV/SOF regimens are effective against HCV genotype one infection, allowing for the expansion of 12-week treatment for suitable patients in clinical settings. Additionally, older age, liver cirrhosis, diabetes, higher pretreatment viral load, and non-completion of EVR were associated with SVR failure. However, due to the small number of HCV genotype 1 infected individuals in this study, more corporate data is required to get a clear conclusion.
