NCT02772744

Brief Summary

This is a prospective, cohort study in Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University, Egypt. From June to December, 2016, investigators will follow up patients with chronic Hepatitis C virus genotype 4 receiving daclatasvir-sofosbuvir treatment regimen within the national program of Egyptian ministry of health and population. The primary outcomes are safety of the treatment and the sustained virologic response 12 weeks after discontinuation of therapy. For the secondary outcomes, investigators will measure the change in health related quality of life and investigate the genetic sequence of viral RNA of resistant patients.
