Core Tip |
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a significant cause morbidity and mortality. The main therapeutic targets are the NS3/4A protease, NS5B polymerase, and NS5A replication complex. Pre-existence of resistance associated variants to direct antiviral agents (DAA) reduces sustained virologic response rates. Despite the low frequency of mutations, this resistant population is likely to be selected in patients undergoing therapy with DAA. Even though HCV variants resistant to DAA targeting one viral protein remain susceptible to DAA targeting another viral protein, combination therapy could fail due to selection of HCV with resistance substitutions in multiple targets. |
