ABSTRACT: Background
Data on the treatment of patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)/human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection remains limited. A comprehensive analysis was performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ombitasvir (OBV)/paritaprevir (PTV)/ritonavir(r) ± dasabuvir (DSV) ± ribavirin (RBV) for treatment in HCV/HIV coinfected patients.Methods
We systematically searched and included studies that enrolled patients with HIV/HCV coinfection using the OBV/PTV/r ± DSV ± RBV regimens and reported sustained virological response after 12 weeks (SVR12) end-of-treatment. Heterogeneity of results was assessed and pooled SVR rates were computed with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI). Subgroup analysis and assessment of publication bias through Egger's test were further performed
