Ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir + dasabuvir + ribavirin in HCV genotype 1 infected patients who failed previous protease inhibitor therapy.
Article in Clinical and experimental hepatology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aim of the studyCombination of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir + dasabuvir ± ribavirin (3DDA±RBV) therapy is shown to be effective in HCV genotype 1 (GT1) infected patients. However, sparse data exist in patients who failed previous boceprevir or telaprevir based therapies. Real life efficacy and safety of this combination were evaluated in HCV GT1b infected patients (mostly cirrhotics) with compensated liver disease who failed previous boceprevir or telaprevir based therapies more than a year before. MATERIAL AND
methodsData of previous protease inhibitor failure patients, treated with 3DAA+RBV for 12 weeks (GT1b and/or non-cirrhotics) or 24 weeks (non-GT1b cirrhotics), were retrospectively collected.
resultsPopulation characteristics: boceprevir/telaprevir-failure: 82/45, GT1b: 117, cirrhotic: 111 (87.4%). SVR12/24 was observed in 103/105 patients (98.1%) of those who reached either time point. Four SAEs reported: one death due to myocardial infarction, another due to recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma after achieving SVR12, two hospitalizations (elevation of transaminases, pneumonia). Grade ≥ 3 AEs or laboratory abnormalities were reported in < 10% of patients; they were transient in all patients. No early discontinuation of drugs due to SAE has been reported.
conclusionsOne year after previous failure of boceprevir or telaprevir based therapy, 12 weeks of 3DAA+RBV combination in HCV GT1b infected patients is similarly effective and safe as in those with no previous HCV therapy, even in the presence of cirrhosis. These findings might be of particular interest in settings where alternative therapies for such patients are not available or not affordable.
