Résumé

There is emerging data on the use of Sofosbuvir-based directly acting antiviral (DAA) drug regimens in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance haemodialysis (MHD). We evaluated the safety and efficacy of Sofosbuvir plus Velpatasvir fixed-dose combination in CHC patients with ESRD on MHD. Fifty-one CHC patients with ESRD on MHD were included in a real-life prospective study. All patients irrespective of genotype; presence of cirrhosis; treatment naive or experienced status were treated with full-dose Sofosbuvir (400 mg) plus Velpatasvir (100 mg) fixed-dosed combination given daily for 12 weeks. The efficacy was assessed by the sustained virological response (SVR12) with negative HCV RNA 12 weeks after the end of treatment (ETR). Side effects if any were recorded in all patients. The median HCV RNA level in 51 CHC patients [Males 41 (80.4%), mean age 42.8 ± 14.6 years] was 2.0 × 10 Sofosbuvir plus Velpatasvir fixed-dose combination is safe and effective in treating CHC in patients with ESRD on MHD.

BACKGROUND & AIMS
There is emerging data on the use of Sofosbuvir-based directly acting antiviral (DAA) drug regimens in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance haemodialysis (MHD). We evaluated the safety and efficacy of Sofosbuvir plus Velpatasvir fixed-dose combination in CHC patients with ESRD on MHD.
METHODS
Fifty-one CHC patients with ESRD on MHD were included in a real-life prospective study. All patients irrespective of genotype; presence of cirrhosis; treatment naive or experienced status were treated with full-dose Sofosbuvir (400 mg) plus Velpatasvir (100 mg) fixed-dosed combination given daily for 12 weeks. The efficacy was assessed by the sustained virological response (SVR12) with negative HCV RNA 12 weeks after the end of treatment (ETR). Side effects if any were recorded in all patients.
RESULTS
The median HCV RNA level in 51 CHC patients [Males 41 (80.4%), mean age 42.8 ± 14.6 years] was 2.0 × 10
CONCLUSION
Sofosbuvir plus Velpatasvir fixed-dose combination is safe and effective in treating CHC in patients with ESRD on MHD.
