2 Prototypes of HCV-2 Naive Patients Indicated to P/R treatment Age: 18 ~7 yrs ALT pattern: normal/near normal elevated Viral load: low high IL28B: CC TT Fibrosis stage: F F4

3 Some Good Reasons to Treat HCV-2 Patients HCV-2 associated with slower fibrosis progression (Marabita, Hepatol 211 & Bochud, J Hepatol 29) but also with sudden ALT flares that lead to rapid progression (Rumi, JVH 22 and Gut 25) HCV-2 associated with higher risk of non Hodgkin lymphoma (Hartridge- Lambert, Hepatology 212) High SVR with 24 Weeks of PegIFN plus Rbv (Grassi E, Liver Int 213; 33 Suppl 1:35-4) Cost and affordability of future DAAs still uncertain

4 AISF & EASL Endorsed Treatment Schedules in HCV-2 Patients AISF EASL PegIFNalfa2b 1.5 µg/kg/wk plus w.b. RBV PegIFNalfa2b 1.5 µg/kg/wk plus RBV 8 mg/day PegIFNalfa2a 18 µg/wk plus w.b. RBV PegIFNalfa2a 18 µg/wk plus RBV 8 mg/day 24 weeks 24 weeks Patients with genotypes 2 and 3 with baseline factors suggesting low responsiveness should receive weight-based ribavirin at the dose of 15 mg/kg per day (C2).
