ABSTRACT
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a significant public health burden worldwide, owing in large part to ineffective and poorly tolerated treatments. The antivirals have evolved over time to become more effective and better tolerated with cure rates increasing from an average of 50% to a complete virologic response. This article summarizes the latest Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved addition to combination treatment for patients with HCV, voxilaprevir plus sofosbuvir/velpatasvir.
