Both monoinfected and coinfected HIV patients were included, having completed DAA treatment. We collected demographic (gender, age) and clinical (virus genotype, fibrosis degree, mono-or coinfected, treatment and length of treatment, previous treatments in the case of relapse) variables. As an effectiveness variable, we set sustained viral response (SVR) at week 12 after finishing treatment, or undetectable viral load in those patients who did not achieve a SVR. Data were obtained from the pharmacotherapeutic management programmes Silicon and SAP. Results A total of 146 patients. mean age 54 years. were included. There was 34.93% women, 25.34% coinfected and 88.36% naïve. The most frequent genotype (G) was G1a (31.94%), G1b, 29.86% and G3, 19.44%. Depending on hepatic damage, patients presented with different levels of fibrosis (F): F0-1, 66.44%; F2, 15.75%; F3, 6.16%; F4, 5.48%; and cirrhosis, 2.05%. Treatments were glecaprevir/pibrentasvir in 57.53%, sofosbuvir/velpatasvir in 23.29% and elbasvir/grazoprevir in 14.38%. Length of treatment was chosen according to what was said in the technical. Effectiveness (SVR) evaluated 12 weeks after finishing treatment or undetectable viral load after finishing treatment in monoinfected patients was 75.93% and 24.07%, respectively. Regarding coinfection, we could not follow-up with one patient and the other patient's results are still pending (SVR 92.11%). Relapse was detected in patients who had been previously treated with ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir+dasabuvir (2.05%), sofobuvir/ledipasvir (0.68%, n=1) and elbasvir/grazoprevir (0.68%), and reinfection was detected in a patient previously treated with sofosbuvir/daclatasvir. Relapses were treated with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (2.74%). Conclusion and relevance Use of DAA was common in our hospital. Effectiveness data and population characteristics were equal to those obtained in the available bibliography. It is crucial to confirm SVR in week 12 after finishing treatment to make sure the disease has been cured.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
