All-oral Direct-acting Antiviral Regimens in HIV/Hepatitis C Virus–coinfected Patients With Cirrhosis Are Efficient and Safe: Real-life Results From the Prospective ANRS CO13–HEPAVIH Cohort

International audience; BACKGROUND:Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis C virus (HCV)-coinfected patients with cirrhosis have long been considered to be difficult to treat, and real-life efficacy and tolerance data with all-oral direct-acting antiviral (DAA) combinations in these patients are scarce.METHODS:Cirrhotic HIV/HCV-coinfected patients enrolled in the French National Agency for Research on AIDS and Viral Hepatitis (ANRS) CO13 HEPAVIH cohort initiating an all-oral DAA regimen were consecutively included. A negative HCV RNA result at 12 weeks of follow-up or thereafter was assumed as a sustained virologic response (SVR12). Adjusted exact logistic regression was used to study factors associated with treatment outcome.RESULTS:We included 189 patients who initiated an all-oral DAA regimen with the following characteristics: median age 53.2 years; 74.6% male; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention classification A/B/C: 37%/31%/32%; Child-Pugh class A/B/C: 91%/8%/1%; 87% with HIV RNA
