HCV1b genome evolution under selective pressure of the cyclophilin inhibitor alisporivir during the DEB-025-HCV-203 phase II clinical trial

  • Authors: Crabbe R, Cuypers L, Kerremans L, Libin P, Snoeck J, Van Dooren S, Vandamme AM, Vuagniaux G

Major advances have revolutionized the HCV antiviral treatment field, with interferon-free combinations of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) resulting into success rates of >90% for all HCV genotypes. Nevertheless, viral eradication at a global level stills remains challenging, stimulating the continued search for new affordable pan-genotypic drugs. To overcome selection of drug resistant variants, targeting host proteins […]

A near-full length genotypic assay for HCV1b

  • Authors: Camacho RJ, Cuypers L, Kerremans L, Nevens F, Snoeck J, Van Dooren S, Vandamme AM, Verbeeck J, Vrancken B, Vuagniaux G
  • Publication Year: 2014
  • Journal: Journal of Virological Methods

A near-full genome genotypic assay for HCV1b was developed, which may prove useful to investigate antiviral drug resistance, given new combination therapies for HCV1 infection. The assay consists of three partially overlapping PCRs followed by Sanger population or Illumina next-generation sequencing.
