Core Tip	This case suggests that therapy for chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection may be given simultaneously with localized chemotherapy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The use of telaprevir has improved response rates in patients with HCV genotype 1 infections. Substantial number of drug-drug interactions are anticipated with the use of telaprevir, a cytochrome P450 3A and P-glycoprotein substrate and inhibitor. Herein, we describe a patient with HCV-associated HCC treated simultaneously with a telaprevir-containing regimen and localized chemotherapy (transcatheter arterial chemoembolization). No clinically relevant interactions or adverse events developed while on antiviral therapy.
