Core Tip It is begun the era of all-oral direct-acting antiviral drugs for hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment allowing interferon-free therapeutic regimens. These regimens are safe and yield cure rate greater than 90%. The therapeutic success has posed the basis for HCV elimination, although, confirmation are waiting from real world. However, many conditions hinder the fulfillment of the dream. These conditions are the excessive cost of drugs, the access and delivery of care, the epidemiology of HCV and the political commitments. Thus, an urgent effort must be done to make accessible on large-scale all-oral anti-HCV therapies allowing saving millions of lives.
