Brief Summary:
The study aims to assess the effectiveness of a model of hepatitis C screening and integrated care, targeting people who inject drugs (PWIDs) in Hai Phong, Vietnam. In a wider perspective, this model linked to mass screening through repeated Respondent Driven Sampling (RDS) surveys, to simplified treatment protocol, and to large community-based support to improve referral to care, retention in care, adherence to treatment and prevention of reinfection, may have the potential to eliminate HCV among PWIDs in this city.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase

Arms and Interventions
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Arm Intervention/treatment
All patients
All patients will receive sofosbuvir 400-mg and daclatasvir 60-mg (1 tablet each per day) during 12 weeks.
 Drug: Sofosbuvir 400 mg and Daclatasvir 60 mg
All patients will receive sofosbuvir 400-mg and daclatasvir 60-mg (1 tablet each per day) during 12 weeks.
HIV/HCV co-infected patients
For HIV/HCV co-infected patients receiving efavirenz or nevirapine, daclatasvir dose will be increased to 90-mg per day (sofosbuvir 400 mg and daclatasvir 90 mg)
 Drug: Sofosbuvir 400 mg and Daclatasvir 90 mg
For HIV/HCV co-infected patients receiving efavirenz or nevirapine, daclatasvir dose will be increased to 90-mg per day.
Cirrhosis
In case of cirrhosis : ribavirin will be added to sofosbuvir / daclatasvir 12 weeks
 Drug: Ribavirin

In case of cirrhosis:

  • Ribavirin will be added to sofosbuvir/daclatasvir during the 12 weeks of treatment. The dose will be adapted to the patient weight although the vast majority of patients (weight < 75 kg) will receive 500 mg x 2/day.
  • In case of ribavirin contra-indication or side effects leading to ribavirin discontinuation, sofosbuvir/daclatasvir will be used 24 weeks.
Cirrhosis with ribavirin contra-indication
In case of cirrhosis with ribavirin contra-indication : sofosbuvir and daclatasvir for 24 weeks
 Drug: Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir for 24 weeks
In case of cirrhose and of ribavirin contra-indication or side effects leading to ribavirin discontinuation, sofosbuvir/daclatasvir will be used 24 weeks.

    Proportion of patients who initiate the treatment among patients enrolled in care and eligible for treatment

  4. Proportion of patients cured [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]
    Number of patients with HCV RNA < 15 IU/mL among those initiating the treatment eligible

  5. Rate of reinfection [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]
    Number of patients with HCV RNA ≥ 15 IU/mL at the end of the study among cured patients

  6. Rate of mortality [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]
    Rate of deaths among all participants with hepatitis C infection

  7. Frequency, type and time to grade 3 or 4 adverse clinical or biological events. [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]
    All adverse events will be graded according to the ANRS adverse events grading table

  8. Frequency, type and time to drug-related clinical or biological adverse reactions [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]
    All drug-related clinical or biological adverse reactions of grade 3 or 4 or leading to treatment interruption

  9. Adherence assessment [ Time Frame: Week 12 ]
    Self-questionnaire on DAA drug intake and drug accountability for DAA

  10. Factors associated with HCV treatment failure [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]
