Safety and Efficacy of Pegylated Interferon Lambda, Ribavirin, and Daclatasvir in HCV and HIV-Coinfected Patients
2017
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pegylated interferon–lambda-1a (Lambda)/ribavirin (RBV)/daclatasvir (DCV) for treatment of patients coinfected with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Treatment-naive patients were assigned to cohort A [HCV genotype (GT)-2 or -3] or cohort B [HCV GT-1(a or b) or -4]. All patients received Lambda/RBV/DCV for the first 12 weeks; cohort A received Lambda/RBV for an additional 12 weeks, followed by 24 weeks of follow-up, and cohort B received response-guided therapy. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients who achieved a sustained virologic response at post-treatment week 12 (SVR12). In cohort A (n = 104), 84.6% achieved SVR12 (95.0% in GT-2; 83.1% in GT-3). In cohort B (n = 196), 76.0% achieved SVR12 (71.7% in GT-1a; 86.0% in GT-1b; 70.7% in GT-4). Rates of discontinuation due to adverse events (AEs) (3.8% and 6.1%) and serious AEs (5.8% and 6.1%) were low in cohorts A and B, respectively. In addition, treatment with Lamb...
