Curing the historically incurable: treatment success with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir for chronic hepatitis C virus in a heavily treatment-experienced individual.

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Significant progression in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus has been made with the introduction of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs). However, limited data are available for the retreatment of individuals who have failed multiple prior DAAs.

CASE DESCRIPTION: We report a single case of an individual who was unsuccessfully treated with five prior hepatitis C virus treatment regimens including simeprevir plus sofosbuvir who was successfully cured after treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir.

WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: Ledipasvir/sofosbuvir may be an option for treating patients who have failed multiple prior DAA regimens; however, further research is warranted.
