| Popis: | The combination paritaprevir/ritonavir, ombitasvir, and dasabuvir (PrOD), which achieves a high sustained virologic response (SVR) rate and few side effects, has dramatically changed the outcome of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and variceal bleeding in patients treated with interferon (IFN)-free direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) is unknown. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the rate of HCC and variceal bleeding and identify prognostic factors for decompensation/complications in HCV-1b-infected patients with compensated liver cirrhosis following treatment with PrOD with or without ribavirin. Material and methods: A total of 483 HCV patients received PrOD treatment. Patients with a history of HCC were excluded from the study. Prior antiviral therapy was identified in 59% of patients. Patient data were collected at baseline, at the end of treatment (EoT), at 3 months after EOT (SVR) and during an 18-month surveillance period. Patients were divided into two age groups |
