High SVR Rates in HCV/HIV-1 Co-Infected Patients Regardless of Baseline Characteristics | IAS 2015 | 21 July 2015 3
Co-infection with HCV occurs in 20 – 40% of persons living with HIV
HCV/HIV co-infection is associated with more rapid liver disease progression, non-hepatic organ dysfunction, and increased overall mortality compared to HCV mono-infected patients1
In the era of potent HIV ART, liver-related disease is a leading cause of death in co-infected patients,2,3 thus, guidelines indicate that co-infected patients should be prioritized for HCV treatment4,5
Recommendations indicate that new interferon-free HCV direct-acting antiviral (DAA) regimens should be used in co-infected patients as if they were HCV mono-infected because of similar rates of response4,5

The 3-DAA (3D) regimen of ombitasvir (OBV), paritaprevir (co-dosed with ritonavir; PTV/r), and dasabuvir (DSV) with or without ribavirin (RBV) is approved in 49 countries to treat HCV genotype 1 (GT1) infection, including those with HIV-1 co-infection
Background
6Sulkowski MS, et al. JAMA. 2015;313(12):1223-31.
In the TURQUOISE-I trial of HCV/HIV-1 co-infected patients with or without cirrhosis, rates of post-treatment week 12 sustained virologic response (SVR12) were 94% and 91% receiving 3D + RBV for 12 or 24 weeks, respectively6

TURQUOISE-I:Modified ITT SVR12 and Analysis Population
To assess factors that may influence achievement of SVR, non-virologic failures were removed from the modified ITT population
• In the 12-week arm, 1 patient withdrew consent (W10)
• In the 24-week arm, 2 patients had post-treatment HCV reinfection
Virologic failures included 1 on-treatment breakthrough at W16(24-week Arm) and 1 relapse at PTW4 (12-week Arm)

In HCV GT1/HIV-1 co-infected patients, 3D + RBV achieved high rates of SVR12 regardless of baseline host, viral, and disease characteristics whether treated with 12 or 24 weeks of therapy
Only 2 of 62 patients had true HCV virologic failure, 1 of whom was not receiving a label-recommended regimen of 24 weeks for GT1a patients with cirrhosis
• Both virologic failures were infected with HCV GT1a and had prior null response to pegIFN/RBV, IL28B TT genotype, and cirrhosis
3D + RBV co-administered with atazanavir or raltegravir ART was well tolerated with no patient discontinuations due to AEs
