I 2nd that motion William. Your friend will certainly be welcome here. We have another warrior (webtomass) who just recently started on Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, GS-9857. That thread is young and limited on information right now so it needs more members to jump on board. We'll be very interested in anyone on this protocol for sure.

 Thanks for stopping in. It's good for everybody to hear from the veterans who have already achieved SVR. I hope your joint pain is getting better too. I'm only 4 wks post EOT but I seem to be getting through my aerobic exercises with less pain than before. 

Keep us up to date on your continued progress and have fun being Hep C free! smile

Thanks William, I`m feeling very well.  My avatar photo was taken at my daughter`s a few weeks ago, note her stylish decor!

All the best of luck to your friend, and if he`s looking for a good online support group he'd be very welcome here. Let us know if you'd like any more information about this trial.   

Hope you`re doing ok, we`re always pleased to hear from you...  smile

Hi William, I think your friend is referring to a phase 3 clinical trial by the name of `Polaris 1`, which is for Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir/GS-9857, from Gilead Sciences. 

Here`s the details of the trial for people who have failed a previous DAA tx...

Polaris 1 Clinical Trial

These are great drugs, your friend would be well advised to get into this trial!  Good luck to him!
