摘要
For patients treated with telaprevir, peginterferon, and ribavirin, futility rules have been developed to prevent needless drug exposure and minimize development of drug-resistant variants for patients who have little or no chance of achieving a sustained virologic response. We performed retrospective analyses of data from phase 3 trials and validated the current futility rule. All therapy should be stopped for treatment-naive and treatment-experienced patients if hepatitis C virus RNA levels are greater than 1000 IU/mL at weeks 4 or 12, or if hepatitis C virus RNA is detectable at week 24.
