RE: GT3 Information

Zlikster I was told that  Daclatasvir+Sovaldi+Riba was not approved for GT3 in US . I am keeping track of the GS-5816 study and hope to see it approved also the Filter treatments in conjunction with RX treatment. I think no matter what the weight loss is in my best interest so I can't go wrong with that. Hope you can get the Sovaldi Riba treatment and it works for you. When I see my Gastro Dr. again I want to ask about getting into clinical trials . My pre TX was I was diagnosed in 2003 VL 83000 Biopsy was done showed no damage was told treatment could be worse that condition so I waited till now and failed the 24 week Sovaldi Riba course tested 220,000 VL after 12 weeks post completion. Pre treatment VL 2013 was 2,000,000.

Thanks for the link...

I have failed Interferon+Riba (tho i was almost RVR), but i am slim/skinny, yet liver is a bit fatty...all cause of GT3's liver munching fatty cells making capabilities :/

Don't loose hope. Seems that GS-5816+Sovaldi+Riba is the thing for us GT3s. In meantime are u eligible for Daclatasvir+Sovaldi+Riba? Daclatasvir has been approved in EU i think. If not try to nail some clinical trial :)

Mind you posting your details pre tx, during tx, post tx? I am trying to obtain Sovaldi somehow and do 24w of it with Riba.

thanks!

I found this article that I believe helps explain why I failed to achieve SVR after 24 weeks of SVLD/RBVRN treatment. I  have IR and Steatosis . At the present time I am working on getting my weight down to hopefully reduce my Steatosis and improve my IR. I am down from a high of 275 pounds a year and a 1/2 ago too 243 pounds with my goal of being 225 pounds or below six months from now. I have also had problems with my triglycerides and I believe all three problems are tied to my GT3 virus. This article points toward this and sheds light on why they could have effected my treatment. Never give up.

If you are GT3 I hope this information will be of interest and help for you it was for me.
