摘要
Background: Recurrent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection after liver transplantation (LT) has been a frequent and relevant problem in the past two decades. This analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of new interferon (IFN)-free direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapies in a large real-world cohort of HCV patients after LT. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed a cohort of 157 patients infected with HCV who underwent deceased donor LT between 1997 and 2014. Patient survival, outcome, and side effects of antiviral therapy were assessed. Results: Survival with recurrent HCV genotype 1 (GT1) infection was inferior to other HCV GTs (P= 0.01). The overall sustained virological response (SVR) rate with new DAA therapy was 94.6% (n= 37). Patients with both GT1 and other GTs reached SVR rates.90%. We noticed a few side effects, mainly caused by ribavirin, and only one discontinuation in DAA-treated patients. Conclusion: DAA therapy was effective and safe in previous hard-to-treat patients after LT in this real-world cohort.
