Aim of Study: Aim of the current study was to evaluate evaluate efficacy of the 2-DAAs combination of ombitasvir, paritaprevir (co-dosed with ritonavir) with ribavirin in treatment of chronic HCV patients and evaluate correlation between virologic failure and risk factors. Patients and Methods: Chronic HCV patients (n=100) were enrolled in the current study. All patients received 25mg ombitasvir, 150mg paritaprevir, and 100mg ritonavir orally once daily plus Ribavirin 600-1000mg) for 12 weaks. Response was assessed 12 weeks after end of treatment by SRT-PCR. Results: The interferon-free regimen of ombitasvir/ pari-taprevir/ritonavir + ribavirin for 12 weeks achieved sustained virologic response in 91% of patients. Conclusion: In conclusion, the 12-week 2-DAA regimen of OBV/PTV/r and DSV achieved an SVR12 rate of 91% in previously untreated patients with HCV infection.
