Sofosbuvir and velpatasvir for HCV in patients with decompensated cirrhosis

TL;DR: Treatment with sofosbuvir-velpatasvir with or without ribavirin for 12 weeks and with so-called "superdrugs" for 24 weeks resulted in high rates of sustained virologic response in patients with HCV infection and decompensated cirrhosis.

Effectiveness of Simeprevir Plus Sofosbuvir, with or Without Ribavirin, in Real-World Patients with HCV Genotype 1 Infection

Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnosing Portal Hypertension with Noninvasive Subharmonic Pressure Estimates from a US Contrast Agent.
