BACKGROUND: HIV/hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfected patients are known to have lower sustained viral response (SVR) rates than HCV monoinfected patients. However, the role of CD4+ T-cell counts on viral kinetics and outcome is not fully understood. METHODS: HCV RNA kinetics (bDNA v3, lower limit o...
