Simeprevir/pegylated interferon/ribavirin triple therapy for recurrent hepatitis C after living donor liver transplantation

摘要

AimSimeprevir (SMV) is a protease inhibitor which demonstrates good tolerability and high antiviral response in patients with hepatitis C. The clinical outcomes of triple therapy using simeprevir, pegylated interferon and ribavirin (SMV/PEG IFN/RBV) for recurrent hepatitis C after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) have not been well reported. In this study, we assessed the outcomes of patients with recurrent hepatitis C (genotype 1) after LDLT who received triple therapy at our hospital.
