Detection of HCV RNA in Sustained Virologic Response to Direct-Acting Antiviral Agents: Occult or Science Fiction?  Masaru Enomoto, Yoshiki Murakami, Norifumi Kawada  Gastroenterology  Volume 153, Issue 1, Pages 327-328 (July 2017) DOI: 10.1053/j.gastro.2017.03.075 Copyright © 2017 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 The clinical course of a 74-year-old, anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment-naïve woman with chronic hepatitis C who achieved an sustained virologic response under ledipasvir plus sofosbuvir therapy. Serum HCV-RNA became negative after 8 weeks of treatment on the Roche TaqMan assay (lower limit of quantification [LLOQ], 1.2 log10 IU/mL), but remained positive during treatment and 4 weeks after the end of treatment, becoming negative 8 weeks after the end of treatment, as determined by the Abbott RealTime HCV assay (LLOQ, 1.08 log10 IU/mL). LDV, ledipasvir; SOF, sofosbuvir; TD, target detected, indicating HCV-RNA positive but < LLOQ; TND, target not detected, indicating HCV-RNA negative.
