BACKGROUND/AIM: Thalassemia patients are susceptible to hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection due to blood transfusions. Currently, data on treating HCV in thalassemic children with direct-acting antivirals is lacking. This study was performed to determine the efficacy and safety of sofosbuvir-daclatasvir combination therapy in thalassemic children and adolescents.
METHODS: A nonrandomized, open-label, interventional study was carried out in a tertiary care hospital. Consecutive noncirrhotic treatment-naïve thalassemic patients with HCV infection with viremia, within the age group of 6-18 years, were treated with the combination of sofosbuvir-daclatasvir: 200 mg + 30 mg for age 6-11 years (Group A) and 400 mg + 60 mg for age 12-18 years (Group B). The primary endpoint was sustained virological response at 12 weeks (SVR12).
RESULTS: A total of 70 patients (Group A 45, 64% male; Group B 25, 40% male) were recruited. The mean age was 8.5 years and 13.9 years in the two groups. Mean HCV Ribonucleic acid (RNA) levels in Groups A and B were 446906.1 IU/ml and 256187.8 IU/ml, respectively. SVR12 was achieved in 43 of 45 (95.5%) patients on an intention-to-treat basis and 43 of 44 (97.7%) patients on a perprotocol basis in Group A, and all patients in Group B (100%). In both groups, there was a significant improvement in biochemical parameters. Among the two patients who did not achieve SVR12 in Group A, one required termination of therapy due to urticaria.
CONCLUSION: Sofosbuvir-daclatasvir based treatment in noncirrhotic, treatment-naive thalassemic children and adolescents infected with HCV is effective and safe.
