摘要: Asunaprevir, a second-generation NS3 protease inhibitor of hepatitis C virus (HCV), exhibits strong antiviral activity against HCV genotypes 1 and 4, but relatively weak 2 3. For chronic infection, asunaprevir with daclatasvir as an interferon-free dual treatment achieves sustained virologic response nearly 90% in genotype 1b, triple regimen beclabuvir >90%. Asunaprevir can be safely effectively administered to liver transplant recipients recurrent HCV. The major drawback is its low threshold resistance, which overcome by combining it other direct-acting antivirals. Further studies combination antivirals for the patients or 4 renal impairment end-stage disease under hemodialysis, HIV-coinfection and/or kidney are warranted.
