People who are cured of hepatitis C virus (HCV) when they have minimal or no liver fibrosis (scarring) have a very low rate of liver-health problems during the subsequent three years.

Researchers analyzed data from the Gilead SVR Registry, which includes individuals who entered the registry within three months of being cured of hep C with a regimen including at least one of the direct-acting antiviral medications manufactured by Gilead Sciences. These include Sovaldi (sofosbuvir), Harvoni (ledipasvir/sofosbuvir), Epclusa (sofosbuvir/velpatasvir) and Vosevi (sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir).
