NS5A Mutations/Resistance
 
 
  from Jules: despite the presence of NS5A mutations at baseline before treatment apparently very few patients fail due to the mutations, it appears >1000 fold NS5A resistance shows the greatest signal for failure, 100-1000 fold may signal a risk depending on the duration of NS5A therapy, and apparently <100 fold is not a risk look below from a study at EASL you will see high SVR rates despite >100 fold resistance. There is a Monogram NS5A resistance test available. Adding a 3rd drug like a protease is being studied by Gilead, adding protease GS9857 to 2 other HCV drugs, could be SOF+LDV or SOF+GS5816, and 2nd generation NS5A inhibitors are in development that may also suppress NS5A resistance: ACH3102, MK8408, ABT530, GS5816. EASL: New HCV Drugs new nukes-NS5A/Protease Inhibitors - (05/08/15) or if insurance would cover it you could add a currently available protease inhibitor like Simeprevir to Harvoni, but this has not been studied.
