PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
This program will apply emerging evidence and current practice guidelines to address the contemporary challenges in achieving sustained virologic responses (SVR) in all patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV), including those who are difficult to treat. Case studies demonstrating new approaches to managing treatment naive and direct acting antiviral (DAA) experienced patients with resistant HCV infection will be discussed. The program will emphasize the importance of collaboration among healthcare professionals in order to achieve optimal patient outcomes.
