COMMIT Study: SMV + DCV in genotype 1b Summary SMV + DCV demonstrated efficacy in treatment-naïve HCV genotype 1b infected patients with advanced fibrosis or compensated cirrhosis (F3 or F4) SVR12 was 92% Viral breakthrough was observed in 6.6% of patients (4/17 of those treated for 12 weeks), in the absence of baseline RAVs Emerging SMV and DCV RAVs were detected at time of failure in all patients with viral breakthrough The combination was well tolerated 3% of patients discontinued treatment due to adverse events In conclusion, SMV + DCV is not an optimal regimen High SVR12 rate But viral breakthrough not predictable (not related to PK, nor pre-existing RAVs at baseline) COMMIT Hezode C, Liver International 2017 ; 37:1304-13
