Abstract:
As hepatitis C treatment entered the era of direct-acting antiviral drugs, an increasing number of patients received treatment and achieved virus clearance, but virus clearance is merely a relative endpoint. Future emphasis will be placed on post-treatment benefits and the evolution of clinical outcomes. This article aims to describe the improvement in all-cause mortality and hepatic and extrahepatic-related diseases following virus clearance, particularly in patients treated with direct-acting antiviral drugs.
