Hello Everybody,

does anyone is aware/knows whether there exist any recent data available about the success rate in reaching SVR12 in correspondence with the level of fibrosis prior the start of the treatment?

I still feel iritated when I hear people around me saying that for F1 or F2 there is no need to start the treatment now.

We all know that the DAAs have a success rate of ~95%, but I would really like be able to tell someone still debating whether to treat now or later something like:
– if you are F0, you have “99%” chances to reach SVR12 in 3 months
– if you are F1, your chances drop to “97%” for a 3 months treatment
– if you wait longer and reach F2, F3, F4, your chances drop to 92-90-….% and you might need to take a longer treatment (especially for F4, perhaps some extension for F3).

The above numbers are just imaginary numbers, to ilustrate my point.

Cheers,
RHF
