| Core Tip |
Inability to reach sustained virological response (SVR) and cirrhosis are independent prognostic factors for developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients from the interferon (IFN) era. DAAs offer significantly better SVR rates. The first data regarding HCC occurrence after direct antiviral agent (DAA) treatment are similar to the data from patients who achieved SVR under IFN treatment. Some reports on early HCC occurrence or recurrence after DAA treatment are probably due to selection bias, as they were not reproduced in large comparative studies. DAAs can eradicate HCV, but they cannot terminate HCV-induced premalignant processes once triggered. |
