Reassessment of genotype 1 hepatitis C virus subtype misclassification by LiPA 2.0: implications for direct-acting antiviral treatment.


ABSTRACT: The accuracy of LiPA 2.0 for hepatitis C virus 1 (HCV-1) subtype classification was analyzed. LiPA 2.0 genotype results from 101 HCV-1-infected patients were compared to genotype findings determined by direct core sequencing. Eleven (11%) samples were misclassified. Given the influence of the HCV-1-subtype in the anti-HCV therapy response, an alternative classification method is warranted.
