Abstract
Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir are among the direct-acting antiviral (DAA) medications prescribed for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) virus infection as combination therapy with other antiviral medications. DAA-based therapy achieves high cure rates, reaching up to 97% depending on the genotype of the causative hepatitis C virus (HCV). While DAAs have been approved as an efficient and well-tolerated therapy for CHC, emerging concerns about adverse cardiac side effects, higher risk of recurrence and occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and doubts of genotoxicity have been reported. In our study, we investigated in detail physiological off-targets of DAAs and dissected the effects of these drugs on cellular organelles using budding yeast, a unicellular eukaryotic organism. DAAs were found to disturb the architecture of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the mitochondria, while showing no apparent genotoxicity or DNA damaging effect. Our study provides evidence that DAAs are not associated with genotoxicity and highlights the necessity for adjunctive antioxidant therapy to mitigate the adverse effects of DAAs on ER and mitochondria.

Development of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma after sofosbuvir-ledipasvir treatment for chronic hepatitis C: A case report and literature review. Mol Clin Oncol 2020; 13:1. [PMID: 32754315 PMCID: PMC7391802 DOI: 10.3892/mco.2020.2071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2020] [Accepted: 05/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Recently, treatments for chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection have significantly improved by the development of direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) and almost all patients with HCV can complete antiviral treatment without apparent adverse events. Malignant lymphoma, particularly B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is one of the extrahepatic manifestations associated with chronic HCV infection. The effectiveness of anti-HCV therapy with DAAs for B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma has been demonstrated in recent reports, whereas late-onset B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma after HCV eradication with DAAs has occasionally been reported. In the present study, a 77-year-old man with chronic hepatitis C and intermediate liver cancer risk received sofosbuvir-ledipasvir treatment for 12 weeks. Two months following the end of antiviral therapy, he had achieved sustained virologic response for 8 weeks. However, the patient occasionally found swelling of the right cervical lymph nodes without any subjective symptoms. Lymph node biopsy revealed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and whole-body 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography with computed tomography showed increased FDG uptake in the right cervical, right submandibular, mediastinal and mesenteric lymph nodes. The patient received six courses of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisolone chemotherapy and achieved complete response at 8 months after chemotherapy initiation. Thus, the development of lymphoid malignancies may arise, even after HCV eradication with DAAs. Therefore, clinicians should be aware of such risks during and after antiviral treatment with DAAs.
