Here are the available studies as they relate to GT1 and Sof+Led (Harvoni) vs Sof+Dac (Sovaldi + Dalinza)

Sof+Dac

GT1 ALLY-2 naive (80/83) experienced (43/44) Aggregate 96.8% (123/127)
GT1a ALLY-2 naive 96% (68/71) experienced 97% (32/33) Aggregate 96.2% (100/104)
GT1b ALLY-2 ALLY-2 naive 100% (12/12) experienced 100% (11/11) Aggregate 100% (23/23)
F4 ALLY-2 naive 89% (8/9) experienced 92% (12/13) Aggregate 90.9% (20/22)
Past Failure ALLY-2 98% (43/44)

Sof+Led

GT1 ION-1 98% (142/145) ION-3 96% 96% (165/172) Aggregate 96.8% (307/317)
GT1a ION-1 98% (142/145) ION-3 96% 96% (165/172) Aggregate 96.8% (307/317)
GT1b ION-1 100% (67/67) ION-3 98% (43/44) Aggregate 99.1% (110/111)
F4 ION-1 97% (32/33)
Past Failure ON-3 94% (102/109)

Not a lot between them, but the data for Sof+Led is more robust due to better n

I would be happy taking either. Sof+Dac is a better choice if taking antacid type medications because Ledipasvir needs acid for absorption.

YMMV

klhilde Offline Elite Member Posts: 253 Thank you received: 498 Karma: 6	If I understood correctly, Dac is just slightly better than Led in types 1 and 4. And we already knew that type 3 has to use Dac. So the evidence is in ... Daclatasvir is the pan-genotypic choice. And now AbbVie is getting high success rates WITHOUT Sofosbuvir !!! www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/abbvies...irals-300252074.html Let the price competition begin!

Hi I am a bit confused about both what DAAs combination and length of tx are best for:
Genotype 1b
VL 1.200.000
Tx Naive
F0 - F1
ALT and other enzymes levels on the higher end of normal.

What is the criteria for either 8 weeks tx versus 12 weeks? Thank you.

Blood transfusion in 1992 - Diagnosed in 2007
Tx naive -G1b - F1
VL 2.270.000
ALT 40
Start tx June 4th/2016 with DAAs - Sof/Led from India
Bloods on two weeks of tx (June 18th)
AST 17 - ALT 10 - GGT 19
Virus UND
Bloods on six weeks of tx (July 16th)
AST 17 - ALT 8 - GGT 12
Virus UND
EOT on August 8th (did 9 weeks and 3 days)

SVR 4 Virus UND (September 7th)
AST 13 - ALT 5

SVR 14 Virus UND (November 12th)

You could do 12 for insurance/reassurance, but you fit the shorter treatment profile and using it would save you $500

Hi Meg,

With Harvoni and your profile - 1b, naive, low fibrosis, low viral load (<6 million) the evidence is that 8 weeks treatment is just as effective as 12.

You could do 12 for insurance/reassurance, but you fit the shorter treatment profile and using it would save you $500

Since writing this new evidence has come to light.

fixhepc.com/forum/experts-corner/1576-8-...2-weeks-harvoni.html

In short, 8 weeks is probably a bad choice unless you are very strapped financially, fit the profile and simply can't afford 12.

YMMV
