Direct‐acting antivirals are effective and safe in HCV/HIV‐coinfected liver transplant recipients who experience recurrence of hepatitis C: A prospective nationwide cohort study

Direct‐acting antivirals have proved to be highly efficacious and safe in monoinfected liver transplant (LT) recipients who experience recurrence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, there is a lack of data on effectiveness and tolerability of these regimens in HCV/HIV‐coinfected patients...

Zusammenfassung:Direct‐acting antivirals have proved to be highly efficacious and safe in monoinfected liver transplant (LT) recipients who experience recurrence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, there is a lack of data on effectiveness and tolerability of these regimens in HCV/HIV‐coinfected patients who experience recurrence of HCV infection after LT. In this prospective, multicenter cohort study, the outcomes of 47 HCV/HIV‐coinfected LT patients who received DAA therapy (with or without ribavirin [RBV]) were compared with those of a matched cohort of 148 HCV‐monoinfected LT recipients who received similar treatment. Baseline characteristics were similar in both groups. HCV/HIV‐coinfected patients had a median (IQR) CD4 T‐cell count of 366 (256‐467) cells/µL. HIV‐RNA was
