| Core Tip |
The landscape of treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has completely changed since direct antiviral activities (DAAs) became available. Due to their efficacy in advanced fibrosis and their high tolerability, DAA use has been extended to patients with advanced cirrhosis and patients with severe comorbidities. Consequently, this review addresses the following questions: What benefits can be expected from eradicating HCV in patients who already have advanced liver disease? Are DAAs associated with an appreciable benefit in liver cancer? Can HCV treatment have favorable effects on the major concomitant disorders such as diabetes or cardiovascular disease? Is there any cause for concern when using DAAs in HCV patients with a concomitant HBV infection? |
