Pregnancy outcome of anti-HCV direct-acting antivirals: Real-life data from an Egyptian cohort

摘要

We aimed to assess the pregnancy outcome in women with chronic HCV who had negative pregnancy test prior to the anti-HCV course and had unintended pregnancy while on HCV treatment. Hundred patients with a mean age of 30 +/- 6.7 y were included and advised to withhold antivirals and continue follow-up in viral hepatitis and obstetrics centres till delivery. All patients received a 12-weeks regimen of anti-HCV [sofosbuvir plus daclatasvir (SOF/DCV): n = 95, SOF/DCV plus ribavirin: n = 3, and paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombitasvir plus ribavirin: n = 2]. Only nine patients completed the full antiviral course against medical advice, and 91 stopped between on-treatment weeks 4 and 8. Eighty-eight patients delivered full-term babies, eight had preterm babies and two had abortions. Of the nine patients who completed the full course of DAAs, seven (77.8%) delivered normal babies, attended their post-treatment week 12 visit, and all (100%) achieved sustained virological response. No major antiviral-related adverse events were reported.
