Retreatment of Direct Acting Agents (DAAs) After Initial DAA Failure in Hepatitis C Patients
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) and sofosbuvir/ledipasvir (SOF/LDV) are widely used as first‐line direct‐acting antiviral (DAA) regimens for chronic hepatitis C, achieving high virus eradication rates. However, a small proportion of patients experience treatment failure, and the optimal retreatment strategies for such ...

Hepatitis C virus genotyping based on Core and NS5B regions in Cameroonian patients
Background Current HCV treatments are genotype specific although potential pan-genotype treatments have recently been described. Therefore, genotyping is an essential tool for the therapeutic management of HCV infection and a variety of technologies have

Discovery of Novel Hepatitis C Virus NS5B Polymerase Inhibitors by Combining Random Forest, Multiple e-Pharmacophore Modeling and Docking. [PDF]
The NS5B polymerase is one of the most attractive targets for developing new drugs to block Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. We describe the discovery of novel potent HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitors by employing a virtual screening (VS) approach, which ...

Carbohydrate‐Based Drug Discovery: Synthetic Strategies and Clinical Applications
The picture depicts the molecules discussed in the review. On the left side, the general scaffold of sugars is shown. Next to it are four carbohydrate‐based molecules, including remdesivir, islatravir, empagliflozin, and Globo‐H. Remdesivir and islatravir contain a substituted ribose ring attached to a modified nucleobase.
