Resumen

Efficacy and tolerability of telaprevir, pegylated interferon and ribavirin combination was assessed in 32 cirrhotic genotype 1 hepatitis C (HCV)-HIV coinfected patients. Undetectability of HCV-RNA was observed in 23/32 (71.9%) patients after 24 weeks. Treatment failure was observed in 9/32 subjects: four of them (45.5%) failed triple therapy due to virological rebound, while 5 patients (55.5%) experienced drug-related side effects driving to treatment interruption. These data suggest that telaprevir-containing triple therapy should be considered for treatment of genotype 1 HCV in HIV coinfected patients with liver cirrhosis, although a close vigilance is required because of potential drug-related side effects. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.
