- W2608524881 abstract "Interferon-based regimens for chronic hepatitis C (CHC) were often deferred in patients with β-thalasaemia major (β-TM) due to poor efficacy and tolerance. Current guidelines recommend direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) for these patients. The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of DAAs in patients with β-TM and advanced liver disease due to CHC. Patients were recruited from eight liver units in Greece. The stage of liver disease was assessed using transient elastography and/or liver histology. Five regimens were used: sofosbuvir (SOF) + ribavirin (RBV); SOF + simeprevir ± RBV; SOF + daclatasvir ± RBV; ledipasvir/SOF ± RBV and ombitasvir/paritaprevir-ritonavir + dasabuvir ± RBV. Sixty-one patients (median age 43 years) were included. The majority of patients was previously treated for hepatitis C (75%) and had cirrhosis (79%). Viral genotype distribution was: G1a: n = 10 (16%); G1b: n = 22 (36%); G2: n = 2 (3%); G3: n = 14 (23%); G4: n = 13 (22%). The predominant chelation therapy was a combination of deferoxamine and deferiprone (35%). Overall sustained virological response rates were 90%. All treatment regimens were well tolerated and no major adverse events or drug-drug interactions were observed. Approximately half of the patients who received RBV (7/16, 44%) had increased needs for blood transfusion. Treatment of CHC with DAAs in patients with β-TM and advanced liver disease was highly effective and safe." @default.
