INTRODUCTION
One of the remaining barriers to reaching WHO elimination targets of achieving global hepatitis C (HCV) cure is a lack of an established lower limit of detection (LLOD) to confirm cure post-treatment in near-patient technologies. Determining a LLOD at virologic failure aids in increasing testing feasibility through point-of-care assays in resource-limited settings.
METHODS
We described the level of viremia in 69 patients experiencing virologic failure across 20 clinical trials (ENDURANCE-1, ENDURANCE-2, ENDURANCE-3, ENDURANCE-4, ENDURANCE 5-6, MAGELLAN-1, MAGELLAN-2, EXPEDITION-1, EXPEDITION-2, EXPEDITION-3, EXPEDITION-4, EXPEDITION-5, EXPEDITION-8, SURVEYOR-1, SURVEYOR-2, VOYAGE-1, VOYAGE-2, CERTAIN-1, CERTAIN-2 and APRI). These findings were categorized as on-treatment, post-treatment week (PTW) 4 or PTW12 failures.
RESULTS
The mean HCV RNA level at baseline in the overall population of 5033 patients was 4,193,712 IU/ml ± 5,955,028 (6.2 log IU/ml ± 0.8) compared to 9,585,957 IU/ml ± 8,247,669 (6.8 log IU/ml ± 0.5) in 69 patients experiencing virologic failure by PTW12. The mean HCV RNA level at the time of virologic failure for all patients was 6,004,980 IU/ml ± 7,077,728 (6.4 log IU/ml ± 0.7). Twenty patients had on-treatment virologic failure with a mean HCV RNA level at the time of failure of 9,136,360 IU/ml ± 8,572,113 (6.7 log IU/ml ± 0.7), 36 patients had relapsed by PTW4 with a mean HCV RNA level at the time of relapse of 4,131,344 IU/ml ± 5,246,954 (6.3 log IU/ml ± 0.6), and 13 patients, who experienced relapse between PTW4 and PTW12, had a mean HCV RNA at relapse of 6,376,003 IU/ml ± 7,758,968 (6.3 log IU/ml ± 1.0).
CONCLUSIONS
At PTW12, 100% of virologic failures had an HCV RNA > 3.0 log IU/ml. The data are encouraging that with a LLOD of 3.0 log IU/ml, a point-of-care test could identify all treatment failures accurately; larger studies, including real-world data, are needed to confirm these findings.
简介
在实现世界卫生组织（WHO）消除丙型肝炎（HCV）全球治愈目标的过程中，尚存的障碍之一是缺乏既定的检测下限（LLOD），以确认接近患者的技术治疗后的治愈情况。在资源有限的环境中，通过即时检测（POCT）测定病毒学失败时的 LLOD 有助于提高检测可行性。
方法
我们描述了在 20 项临床试验（ENDURANCE-1、ENDURANCE-2、ENDURANCE-3、ENDURANCE-4、ENDURANCE-5-6、MAGELLAN-1、MAGELLAN-2、EXPEDITION-1、EXPEDITION-2、EXPEDITION-3、EXPEDITION-4、EXPEDITION-5、EXPEDITION-8、SURVEYOR-1、SURVEYOR-2、VOYAGE-1、VOYAGE-2、CERTAIN-1、CERTAIN-2 和 APRI）中 69 名经历病毒学失败的患者的病毒血症水平。这些发现分为治疗期间、治疗后第 4 周（PTW4）或第 12 周（PTW12）失败。
结果
在 5033 名患者的总体人群中，基线时 HCV RNA 平均水平为 4193712IU/ml ± 5955028（6.2 log IU/ml ± 0.8），而在 69 名在 PTW12 时发生病毒学失败的患者中，平均水平为 9585957IU/ml ± 8247669（6.8 log IU/ml ± 0.5）。所有患者病毒学失败时的 HCV RNA 平均水平为 6004980IU/ml ± 7077728（6.4 log IU/ml ± 0.7）。20 名患者在治疗期间发生病毒学失败，失败时的 HCV RNA 平均水平为 9136360IU/ml ± 8572113（6.7 log IU/ml ± 0.7），36 名患者在 PTW4 时复发，复发时的 HCV RNA 平均水平为 4131344IU/ml ± 5246954（6.3 log IU/ml ± 0.6），13 名患者在 PTW4 和 PTW12 之间复发，复发时的 HCV RNA 平均水平为 6376003IU/ml ± 7758968（6.3 log IU/ml ± 1.0）。
结论
在 PTW12 时，100%的病毒学失败患者的 HCV RNA > 3.0 log IU/ml。这些数据令人鼓舞，即通过 LLOD 为 3.0 log IU/ml，POCT 可以准确识别所有治疗失败；需要更大规模的研究，包括真实世界的数据，来证实这些发现。
