Behavioural trajectories following DAA treatment for HCV among people with HIV: findings from an international consortium of prospective cohort studies
Despite slight decreases in behaviours following successful DAA treatment, half of individuals had a consistently high probability of behaviours that put them at risk of HCV reinfection over time. As reinfections comprise a growing proportion of new incident HCV cases, these findings underscore the importance of ongoing primary prevention measures alongside testing and retreatment to eliminate HCV.
