Real-world safety and effectiveness of retreatment of Egyptian chronic hepatitis C patients not responding to NS5A inhibitor-based therapies.

abstract：:Chronic infection with the hepatitis C virus is a major health problem. Conventional therapy, with interferon-alpha is effective in only a minority of patients. The failure of current treatments has led to a major initiative to identify new antiviral agents. In the absence of a tissue culture model for hepatitis C inf...
