Shortened 8 Weeks Course of Dual Sofosbuvir/Daclatasvir Therapy in Adolescent Patients, With Chronic Hepatitis C Infection.
Recently, sofosbuvir and the fixed-dose combination of sofosbuvir/ledipasvir were approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection in adolescents, criteria being 12 years old and above or weighing at least 35 kg. Here we present the results of a pilot single cohort of 10 consecutive adolescent patients with chronic hepatitis C virus and treated with dual sofosbuvir/daclatasvir therapy for a response-tailored duration of 8 weeks for those who achieved very rapid virologic response (vRVR) and 12 weeks for those who did not. All patients achieved vRVR at week 2 and completed the shortened 8 weeks course. All patients (10/10) (100% [confidence interval 72.25-100%]) achieved sustained vRVR at week 12 post-treatment with good tolerability and no serious adverse events. These data could provide support to our suggested response-tailored protocol of dual therapy with sofosbuvir/daclatasvir in adolescents particularly for shortened duration in those who achieved vRVR. Further larger randomized controlled studies are recommended.
