Longest not detected viral load response so far?
« on: June 24, 2015, 09:13:31 am »
Does anyone know what the longest not-detected viral load response recorded so far has been with the new drugs? I know they haven't been around very long, but am wondering if anyone has tested un-detected for years, or is it still being measured in weeks and months? Just curious….

I've been undetected for 2 years. There are others going back at least 5.

I don't know if they is the record, that is all I know off the top of my head. I do know that we have SVR's from other meds stretching back to the 1990's. SVR is SVR, regardless of the treatment.
