Study on the Effectiveness of SOF/VEL/VOX vs. SOF/VEL in HCV Treatment
Explore the POLARIS-4 study comparing the efficacy of SOF/VEL/VOX and SOF/VEL treatments in genotypes 1-6 of chronic HCV infection. Results show high SVR rates, especially in patients without cirrhosis, supporting the use of these regimens in DAA-experienced individuals. Baseline characteristics, SVR rates by genotype and cirrhosis status, and data on baseline RASs are provided.

POLARIS-4 study: SOF/VEL/VOX vs SOF/VEL in genotypes 1 to 6 with non-NS5A inhibitor experience Summary In a wide variety of DAA-experienced patients, excluding those pre-treated with NS5A inhibitor, with genotypes 1, 2, 3 or 4, SVR12was 98% for 12 weeks of SOF/VEL/VOX, meeting superiority criteria to prespecified 85% rate SVR12was 90% for 12 weeks of SOF/VEL Lower SVR12rate in cirrhotic patients (86% vs 96%) Baseline RASs did not impact outcome for SOF/VEL/VOX : SVR12 rates of 100% No treatment-emergent RASs in the patient who relapsed with SOF/VEL/VOX 79% (11/14) patients with virologic failure to SOF/VEL had emergence of Y93H or Y93C SOF/VEL/VOX and SOF/VEL were well tolerated SOF/VEL/VOX for 12 weeks provides a simple, safe, and effective single tablet, once daily treatment for NS5B-experienced patients POLARIS-4 Bourli re M.
