Hi RHF
Thank you for the job. Well done!
I am reviewing it now.Anti-virais de Ação Direta (AAD) Genéricos foram avaliados na sua qualidade
primeiramente na Australia, usando cromotografia liquida de alta
precisão, ressonância magnética e espectroscopia demassa.We need to include de word Genéricos. ^
Generic DAAs were first evaluated for quality in Australia, using high
precision liquid chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance and mass
spectroscopy.

Hi I am sorry to hear you still feel discomfort in the liver after tx. I hope it goes away soon.
I heard that we are supposed to drink at least 64 ounces (two litters) of water/fluids a day to both keep hydrated and help the body flush toxins out. Are you all drinking lots of water? Wondering too what pain relief could be taken to alleviate the pain and discomfort. Besides the actual ” healing process” some of you mentioned, what could possibly be the causes of pain after tx?

The format I was trying to attach is called “pages”. I will copy/paste the translation to Portuguese of the Press Release bellow and maybe someone more savvy than me can transfer it to a file and share it again? Also any Portuguese natives are welcome to chime in. Thanks in advance.
Medicamento genérico anti-viral de ação direta de baixo custo para o tratamento da Hepatite C é equivalente aos medicamentos e formulações de referencia.
Novos estudos indicam que medicamentos genéricos são uma alternativa viável para ajudar no acesso ao tratamento com anti-virais de ação direta.
Associação Europeia para os Estudos do Fígado – EASL
Barcelona, Espanha – 16 de Abril de 2016. Estudo apresentado hoje demonstra que anti-virais de ação direta genérico (AAD) são tão efetivos e seguros quanto os tratamentos de referencia para a cura da Hepatite C.O resumo dos resultados apresentados hoje no Congresso Internacional do Fígado 2016 em Barcelona, Espanha, mostrou alta resposta virológica mantida (RVM) após o tratamento com sofosbuvir, ledipasvir, daclatasvir e ribavirina genéricos, confirmando eficácia clínica equivalente aos resultados vistos na Fase 3 de testes clínicos de tratamentos combinados com medicamentos de referencia.
O alto custo de Anti-virais de Ação Direta (AADs) previnem o acesso ao tratamento em muitos países. Medicamentos Genéricos Anti-virais de Ação Direta estão sendo produzidos em massa e estão disponíveis com menos de 1% do preço de venda de suas cópias de referencia. Medicamentos de referencia que custam US$ 94.000 por pessoa nos Estados Unidos podem ser obtidos atualmente por menos de US$ 1.000 em medicamento genérico, e um tratamento de 12 semanas poderia ser produzido por apenas US$ 200 no futuro.
Nossos dados neste momento sugerem uma solução em potencial para os pacientes com Hepatite C em areas onde o acesso para o tratamento tem sido restrito como resultado do alto custo exigido por tratamentos de referencia, disse o Dr. James Freeman, da GP2U Telehealth, Hobart, Australia e autor principal do estudo. “Com o nível de preço dos anti-virais de ação direta genéricos, tratar a epidemia global de Hepatite C poderia ser financeiramente viável. Além disso, se um paciente é curado da Hepatite C, existe evidencia no aumento da sobrevivência, riscos mais baixos de cancer de fígado e cirrose hepática e pacientes curados poderiam retornar ao trabalho, obtendo maiores benefícios econômicos para a sociedade.”
Neste estudo, pessoas com HCV importaram legalmente tratamento genérico de baixo custo para curarem suas infecções. O estudo incluiu pessoas tratadas na Austrália, nos Estados Unidos, Reino Unido, Canada, Europa, Sudeste da Asia e Africa.
Anti-virais de Ação Direta (AAD) foram avaliados na sua qualidade primeiramente na Australia, usando cromotografia liquida de alta precisão, ressonância magnética e espectroscopia de massa. Pacientes foram avaliados antes do tratamento, durante o tratamento e depois com 4 semanas (RVM4) e 12 semanas (RVM12) seguindo o final do tratamento. O objetivo da análise foi medir a eficácia e segurança dos Anti-virais de Ação Direta genéricos legalmente importados para cada paciente para uso pessoal.
Os resultados até agora mostram que para o genotipo 1 a taxa global de RVM foi de 95%. Tratamento com sofosbuvir e ledipsavir genéricos levaram a uma taxa de RVM4 de 93% e o tratamento com sofosbuvir e daclatasvir genéricos levaram a uma taxa de RVM4 de 97%.
“Entre todos os genotipos, a taxa de RVM foi de 94% após o tratamento com anti-virais de ação direta genéricos. Isto indica que os AAD (anti-virais de ação direta) podem proferir a mesma taxa de sucesso que seus equivalentes de referencia, mas com um preço que é 1/100 do preço atual.” explica o Dr. James Freeman.
“Existe um papel claro para o tratamento com genéricos como estes para pessoas com Hepatite C ao redor do mundo. As implicações de uma disponibilidade maior desses medicamentos poderiam ser enormes, dando para mais pessoas a possibilidade de “cura” para o que frequentemente é uma condição debilitante”, diz o Professor Laurent Castera, Secretário Geral do EASL.

Especialistas participantes, apresentam, compartilham, debatem e concluem sobre as pesquisas mais recentes em hepatologia, trabalhando para melhorar o tratamento e o gerenciamento de doenças do fígado e da prática clínica. Este ano, o congresso espera atrair aproximadamente 10,000 representantes de todos os cantos do mundo. O Congresso Internacional do Fígado™ acontece de 13 a 17 de Abril de 2016, na Fira Barcelona Gran Via, Barcelona, Espanha.
Sobre a Associação Europeia para Estudos do Fígado EASL
Desde a fundação da EASL em 1966, esta organização sem fins lucrativos cresceu para mais de 4.000 membros de todas as partes do mundo, incluindo muitos hepatologistas de ponta da Europa. EASL é a associação do fígado líder na Europa, tendo evoluído para a maior Associação Europeia com influencia internacional, com um historial impressionante promovendo pesquisas em doenças do fígado, apoiando uma maior educação e promovendo mudanças nas políticas europeias do fígado.

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.

Just to let you know I ve been working on the press release text. Had some difficulties finding the right terminology but today I spoke to a doctor at the hospital where I had a Ultrasound and he helped me figure out how to translate some expressions such as ” branded equivalents” .

Dr Freeman,
I can translate it to Portuguese but the link I opened is a power point presentation. Do you want the power point slides translated or another in a text format? I’d be glad to try to find someone to translate it to Spanish as well.

Hi Sonix thanks for your reply. It helps “psychologically” to know I am not alone with these odd sensations. Thanks also for the tips on what to eat. I am such a glutton consumer of cakes, ice creams and chocolate. But I see it is time to change my diet to healthier choices before I start tx. I heard we should def cut down on sugar. Good luck with overcoming all the cramps, itchy skin and that unpleasant burning for once.

It is so interesting that you mentioned Diabetes Dr. Freeman. Thank you so much for your kind attention.
I was just thinking about it since I have a very sweet tooth (it runs in the family) and lately I noticed that I have been craving more sugar than ever before. I will ask my doctor to check for Diabetes next time I see him. By the way the tingling in my feet and sometimes cramping are getting more frequently as well. These extra hepatic symptoms all started in the last few months only and as a “coincidence” my last week’s VL and insulin levels came up the highest since I have been diagnosed with HCV about nine years ago.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply Dr Freeman.
I haven’t started tx yet but will keep this in mind that if this sensation doesn’t go away we will have to look for other causes.
Aside from this extra hepatic” symptom” – which is kind of new – I also have – a lot of fatigue and insonmia so I iam really looking forward to tx and a cure.
