13.6±1.8 g/dL [8.8–17.5], respectively. After 12W, a complete early virological response was obtained in 34 (83%) boceprevir patients and in 35 (61%) telaprevir patients (p = 0.026). Among 17 boceprevir and 16 telaprevir patients, 14 (82%) and 7 (43%) achieved an end of treatment response (EOT) with an undetetectable viral load, respectively (p = 0.032). Among 9 boceprevir and 5 telaprevir patients, 6 and 1 achieved SVR12, respectively. Among 6 patients in the boceprevir group, 3 achieved SVR24. In the telaprevir group, 29 patients discontinued therapy (serious adverse events, n = 13; virological breakthrough, n = 6; non-response, n = 9). In the boceprevir group, 14 patients discontinued therapy (serious adverse events, n = 5; virological breakthrough, n = 2; non-response, n = 4; retransplantation, n = 1). Four patients died in a context of infectious disorders: boceprevir, n = 2 (W20/W24); telaprevir, n = 2 (W2/W9). The most common side effect was anemia in 85% of patients: 95% and 96% in boceprevir and telaprevir groups received erythropoietin alone or combined with ribavirin dose reduction. Conclusion: In liver transplanted patients, EOT rate was 82% and 38% with boceprevir and telaprevir, respectively. Among the overall population, 44% of patients discontinued therapy because of treatment failure or occurrence of serious adverse events. |
