Prevalence and characteristics of naturally occurring sofosbuvir resistance‐associated variants in patients with hepatitis C virus genotype 1b infection
20 Feb 2016
Abstract excerpt
AIM: Sofosbuvir (SOF), a nucleotide analog pro-drug, targets hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase and shows potential for treating HCV infection, given its high efficacy and good barrier to resistance. However, in addition to the rare resistant-associated variant (RAV) of non-structural protein NS5B S282T, several new potential RAVs of SOF have been reported, especially related to HCV genotype 1b. However, the...
