Popis: | Objective of review: to present new approaches to therapy of patients with chronic NCV-infection based on the clinical use of the direct antiviral action drug Sofosbuvir.Major provisions: until recently a standard approach to therapy of HCV-infection included prescription of schemes on the basis of the pegylated interferons (PEG-IFN) in combination with Ribavirin. Drugs of focused action at functional proteins of the virus – direct antiviral drugs – have become drugs of choice, which significantly increases effectiveness and safety of treatment. Drugs of direct antiviral action are classified by the type of viral proteins that serve as the target of their action: protease inhibitors (names of the drugs end with - previr), polymerase inhibitors (names of the drugs end with –buvir), NS5A inhibitors (names of the drugs end with – asvir).Sofosbuvir is an analogue of the uridine nucleotide, a powerful NS5B inhibitor, a key enzyme of HCV-RNA replication, it is widely used in various scheme of antiviral therapy.Conclusion: Sofosbuvir is one of the most promising drugs for therapy of chronic NCV-infection. Its indisputable advantages: it can be used at various viral genotypes, decompensated liver function. Sofosbuvir stands out for its good tolerability and low possibility of development of viral resistance. |
