Relapse of hepatitis C virus after 14 months of sustained virological response following pegylated-interferon alpha plus ribavirin therapy in a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infected patient.

Abstract excerpt

It has been demonstrated that sustained virological response (SVR) in patients with chronic hepatitis C indicates resolution of infection. We describe a late hepatitis C virus (HCV) relapse with nearly identical HCV genotype 1a RNA, 14 months after a SVR achievement following a 12-month pegylated-interferon plus ribavirin treatment in a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patient. This virological relapse...
