On adjusted multivariable analysis, exposure to DAA was associated with a decrease in all cause-mortality (HR=0•48 (95% CI 0•33-0•70)) and HCC (HR=0•66 (0•46-0•93)), and was no longer associated with decompensated cirrhosis (HR=1•14 (0•57-2•27)). InterpretationDAA treatment is associated with a reduced risk of mortality and HCC and should be considered in all patients with chronic HCV infection.
