Özet
Background and study aims: Rapid virologic response (RVR) is defined as undetectable hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA in serum after 4 weeks of treatment for chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombi tasvir (PRO) and/or dasabuvir (D), with or without ribavirin [PRO (D) ribavirin], which are direct-acting antivirals (DAAs), is the currently approved treatment regimen for CHC genotype 1; this regimen can also be used in patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of pretreatment factors on RVR in patients treated with PRO (D) +/- ribavirin.
