Incidence and Impact of Persistent Viremia on SVR Rates in Patients Receiving Direct Acting Antiviral Therapy

Rates of persistent viremia (PV) while on direct-acting antiviral therapy were low (5.7%) in a real-world cohort of 983 patients. High sustained virologic response rates were achieved both in patients with PV (92.9%) and those with rapid virologic response (96.5%), without significant differences.
