摘要: Importance of the field: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection affects 180 million people worldwide. Standard anti-HCV therapy combines effect pegylated IFN-alpha on immune response and antiviral activity ribavirin. Sustained virological rate achieved with this standard care medication is around 50% for HCV genotype 1, most prevalent worldwide genotype. So there an obvious need to enhance efficacy treatment.Areas covered in review: We describe novel treatment options studied within recent few years, which are focused inhibitors HCV-specific enzymes such as NS3/4 protease NS5B polymerase or influence host-virus interactions.What reader will gain: According data, triple therapies consisted interferons, ribavirin demonstrate significant improvement comparison current medication. Moreover, new forms interferons ribavirin, more effective, less toxic, mor...
