AIM
Results of recent studies have confirmed the efficacy of an 8-week course of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) in patients who are non-cirrhotics, native to treatment, are infected with hepatitis C (HCV) genotype 1, and have HCV viral load < 6 million IU/mL. However, there are limited data on a shortened treatment course in patients who are over the age of 65.
METHODS
A retrospective study was performed to examine the safety, tolerability, and sustained viral response rates (SVR) of the 8-week LDV/SOF therapy compared to the 12-week LDV/SOF therapy among non-cirrhotic, treatment-naïve, genotype 1 HCV patients with viral load < 6 million IU/mL who are 65 years of age or older.
RESULTS
A total of 454 patients were identified of which 182 non-cirrhotic, genotype 1 HCV-RNA < 6 million IU/mL patients received the 8-week LDV/SOF treatment and 272 received the 12-week LDV/SOF treatment. Mean [± standard deviation (SD)] aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index score for the entire cohort was 0.45 ± 0.03. The mean (± SD) age for the 8-week treatment was 69.7 (± 7) years, 54.7% male and 45.3% female. The mean (± SD) age of the 12-week treatment was 71.7 (± 3) years, 56.4% male and 43.6% female. Overall, SVR-12 for the 8-week regimen was 93% and SVR-12 for the 12-week regimen was 95%. For the 182 treated with the 8-week LDV/SOF treatment, there were no serious adverse events requiring hospitalization or signs of liver failure requiring transplantation. Overall, the 8-week treatment patient cohort experienced less fatigue, headache, dry mouth, and diarrhea. This finding was statistically significant with a P value < 0.001.
CONCLUSION
Eight-week LDV/SOF therapy in treatment-naive, non-cirrhotic, genotype 1 HCV patients with RNA < 6 million IU/mL was found safe, better tolerated, effective, and required less upfront cost when compared with the 12-week LDV/SOF treatment regimen in properly selected geriatric population.
目的
最近的研究结果证实，对于非肝硬化、初治、感染 HCV 基因型 1 且 HCV 病毒载量<600 万 IU/mL 的患者，8 周疗程的 ledipasvir/sofosbuvir（LDV/SOF）治疗有效。然而，对于年龄超过 65 岁的患者，关于缩短疗程的数据有限。
方法
一项回顾性研究比较了非肝硬化、初治、基因型 1 HCV 患者的 8 周 LDV/SOF 治疗与 12 周 LDV/SOF 治疗的安全性、耐受性和持续病毒学应答率（SVR），这些患者的病毒载量<600 万 IU/mL，年龄为 65 岁或以上。
结果
共确定了 454 名患者，其中 182 名非肝硬化、基因型 1 HCV-RNA<600 万 IU/mL 的患者接受了 8 周 LDV/SOF 治疗，272 名患者接受了 12 周 LDV/SOF 治疗。整个队列的平均（±标准差）天冬氨酸转氨酶血小板比值指数评分（AST/PLT）为 0.45±0.03。8 周治疗的平均（±标准差）年龄为 69.7（±7）岁，54.7%为男性，45.3%为女性。12 周治疗的平均（±标准差）年龄为 71.7（±3）岁，56.4%为男性，43.6%为女性。总的来说，8 周方案的 SVR-12 为 93%，12 周方案的 SVR-12 为 95%。对于接受 8 周 LDV/SOF 治疗的 182 名患者，没有需要住院的严重不良事件或需要肝移植的肝衰竭迹象。总的来说，8 周治疗组的患者疲劳、头痛、口干和腹泻较少。这一发现具有统计学意义（P 值<0.001）。
结论
对于非肝硬化、基因型 1 HCV 患者，8 周 LDV/SOF 治疗初治、RNA<600 万 IU/mL 与 12 周 LDV/SOF 治疗方案相比，在适当选择的老年人群中，更安全、更耐受、更有效，且前期费用更少。
