Core Tip A significant debate about the impact of direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) on the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is currently ongoing. After a full review of the published literature, the evi­dence does not suggest that there is a higher rate of de novo HCC occurrence or recurrence after DAA therapy in patients with previous hepatitis C virus infection.
