PG - 89-93 LID - 10.1080/17474124.2019.1544070 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: The present study aimed at evaluation of changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stages 3-5 who were treated with 12 weeks of ritonavir-boosted paritaprevir, ombitasvir plus ribavirin. METHODS: Changes in renal functions were compared across follow up time points (baseline, SVR4, and SVR8). Data on on-treatment adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, laboratory abnormalities, treatment discontinuation were collected. RESULTS: 171 patients were included (females 35%, mean age 53 years). 29 patients had liver cirrhosis. The most common etiologies of CKD were diabetes and/or hypertension (n = 67). All included patient reached the end of treatment (EOT) with no treatment discontinuations. The overall EOT response was 100%. 122/122 (100%) patients who reached 4 weeks post-treatment have achieved SVR4, and 80/80 (100%) have achieved SVR12. No reported SAEs. Ribavirin therapy was interrupted in 25% (43/171) of patients due to anemia; 16 patients required blood transfusions. The median eGFR improved from 33.5 (15) mL/min/1.73 m(2) at baseline to 35 (36) mL/min/1.73 m2 at SVR8 (p = 0.0003). CONCLUSIONS: The use of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, and ritonavir for treatment of HCV-infected patients with advanced renal disease was safe and effective, moreover, it was associated with significantly improved eGFR.
