Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Direct-acting antiviral (DAA) is effective for chronic hepatitis C. However, resistant associated variants (RAVs) is one of the problems. In the present study, using chronic hepatitis C patients serum samples and HCV-infected human hepatocyte chimeric mice, we clarified 1) Genotype 1 HCV-infected patients with either protease inhibitor or NS5A inhibitor RAVs are likely to fail to daclatasvir plus asunaprevir treatment. 2) While protease inhibitor RAVs that emerged during therapy gradually decreases and became undetectable by deep sequencing analysis, emerged NS5A inhibitor RAVs tends to long-term persist in the absence of the drug. 3) The virological response to daclatasvir plus asunaprevir treatment was low in patients with simeprevir treatment failure. Protease inhibitor resistance remains even after disappearance of mutant strains by deep sequencing.
