Guideline-Suggested Approaches to Re-treatment of Complex DAA Failures
| AASLD/IDSA [17] | EASL [16]a | |
|---|---|---|
| Initial NS5A failureb | a. SOF/VEL/VOX for 12 wkc or b. SOF + GLE/PIB + RBV for 16 wkd | a. SOF/VEL/VOX for 12 wk or b. SOF + GLE/PIB + RBV for 12 wke |
| SOF/VEL/VOX failure or otherwise particularly difficult to curef | a. SOF + GLE/PIB + RBV for 16 wk or b. SOF/VEL/VOX + RBV 24 wk | a. SOF/VEL/VOX + RBV for 12–24 wk or b. SOF + GLE/PIB + RBV for 12–24 wk |
Abbreviations: AASLD, American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases; DAA, direct-acting antiviral; EASL, European Association for the Study of the Liver; GLE, glecaprevir; IDSA, Infectious Diseases Society of America; NS5A, nonstructural protein 5A; PIB, pibrentasvir; RAS, resistance-associated substitution; RBV, ribavirin; SOF, sofosbuvir; VEL, velpatasvir; VOX, voxilaprevir.
aResistance testing recommended (if available) before treatment.
bGLE/PIB for 16 weeks is an alternative for NS5A treatment failure without NS3 PI exposure.
cRBV is recommended for genotype 3 with cirrhosis or GLE/PIB failures with cirrhosis.
dRecommended specifically in the setting of initial GLE/PIB failure.
ePreferred in setting of complex RAS profile or cirrhosis with other negative predictors.
f“Particularly difficult-to-cure” not strictly defined; may include multiple NS5A regimen failures and GLE/PIB failure in the setting of cirrhosis with other negative predictors (eg, complex RAS profiles).
