Direct acting antivirals (DAAs) have revolutionized the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, achieving high rates (≥ 95%) of sustained virological response, with a good safety profile and high compliance rates. Consequently, it had been expected that viral clearance will reduce morbidity and mortality rates, as well as the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, since 2016, concerns have been raised over an unexpected high rate of HCC occurrence and recurrence after DAA therapy, which led to an avalanche of studies with contradictory results. We aimed to review the most recent and relevant articles regarding the risk of HCC after DAA treatment and identify the associated risk factors.
直接作用抗病毒药物(DAAs)彻底改变了丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染的治疗方法,实现了高持续病毒学应答率(≥95%),具有良好的安全性和高依从性。因此,人们曾预计病毒清除将降低发病率和死亡率,以及肝癌(HCC)的风险。然而,自 2016 年以来,人们对 DAA 治疗后 HCC 发生率和复发率的意外升高表示担忧,这导致了大量研究,但结果却相互矛盾。我们旨在回顾与 DAA 治疗后 HCC 风险相关的最新和最相关的文章,并确定相关的危险因素。
