OBJECTIVE
To review the efficacy and safety of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir in the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
METHODS
A literature search through PubMed was conducted (August 2010 to August 2017) using the terms GS-9857, voxilaprevir, and NS3/4A protease inhibitor.
METHODS
Studies of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir were identified.
RESULTS
Sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir is indicated for adult patients with chronic HCV without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis who have (1) genotype 1 through 6 and have previously been treated with an NS5A inhibitor or (2) genotype 1a or 3 and have previously been treated with sofosbuvir without an NS5A inhibitor. POLARIS-1 demonstrated that sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir for 12 weeks was highly effective in patients with HCV genotype 1 through 6 who had prior exposure to an NS5A inhibitor. POLARIS-2 failed to demonstrate that sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir for 8 weeks was noninferior to sofosbuvir/velpatasvir for 12 weeks in patients with HCV genotype 1 through 6 who had no prior exposure to direct-acting antivirals (DAAs). POLARIS-3 demonstrated that sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir for 8 weeks was as effective as sofosbuvir/velpatasvir for 12 weeks in patients with HCV genotype 3 and compensated cirrhosis who had no prior exposure to DAAs. POLARIS-4 demonstrated that sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir was as effective as sofosbuvir/velpatasvir for 12 weeks in patients with HCV genotype 1 through 3 who had prior exposure to DAAs but not an NS5A inhibitor. The most common adverse reactions were headache, fatigue, diarrhea, and nausea.
CONCLUSIONS
Sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir is safe and effective to treat HCV in patients who have previously been treated with DAAs.
