Abstract AIM: The virologic characteristics of resistance-associated variants (RAVs) developing in patients receiving dual oral therapy with daclatasvir/asunaprevir, including those with previous triple therapy with simeprevir, were evaluated. METHODS: A total of 206 patients with genotype-1b HCV infection, including 5 patients with previous simeprevir therapy, were treated with daclatasvir/asunaprevir for 24 weeks. Resistance-associated variants in the NS5A regions at baseline and during/after therapy were evaluated using cycling-probe real-time polymerase chain reaction combined with direct sequencing. The dynamics of rare RAVs were also assessed using ultra-deep sequencing. RESULTS: A sustained virologic response (SVR12) was achieved in 180 patients (87%); the rates were 95% in patients without baseline NS5A-RAVs and 83%, 59%, and 77% in those with hepatitis C virus (HCV) strains carrying NS5A-L31M, NS5A-Y93H/C, and NS5A-R30Q/H/L mutations, respectively. A multivariate analysis revealed baseline NS5A-R30Q/H/L mutation and NS5A-Y93H mutations as significant factors associated with SVR12. Virologic failure developed in all 5 patients with previous simeprevir treatment, and rare RAVs (HCV strains with NS5A-R30H, NS5A-A92K, NS5A-P29del, and NS5A-P32del) developed at virologic failure. Ultra-deep sequencing revealed that HCV strains with NS5A-P29del or NS5A-P32del were absent at baseline and emerged within 4 weeks of dual oral therapy among the strains appearing after simeprevir administration. CONCLUSION: NS5A-R30Q/H/L and NS5A-Y93H mutations at baseline determined the therapeutic efficacy of dual oral therapy with daclatasvir/asunaprevir, but rare NS5A-RAVs developed frequently in patients with previous simeprevir treatment. Such RAVs may develop in a two-hit manner, with simeprevir altering the quasispecies of HCV strains in the NS5A regions, leading to the emergence of HCV strains with NS5A-P29del and NS5A-P32del during exposure to daclatasvir/asunaprevir.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
