Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective, cohort study in Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University, Egypt. From June to December, 2016, investigators will follow up patients with chronic Hepatitis C virus genotype 4 receiving daclatasvir-sofosbuvir treatment regimen within the national program of Egyptian ministry of health and population. The primary outcomes are safety of the treatment and the sustained virologic response 12 weeks after discontinuation of therapy. For the secondary outcomes, investigators will measure the change in health related quality of life and investigate the genetic sequence of viral RNA of resistant patients.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group 1: Easy to treat group

* Treatment naïve
* Total serum bilirubin ≤ 1.2 mg/dl
* Serum albumin ≥ 3.5 g/dl
* International normalized ratio ≤ 1.2
* Platelet count ≥ 150000 mm3

This group will be receiving Sofosbuvir + daclatasvir for 12 weeks.
