Elbasvir/grazoprevir treatment in an HCV-infected peritoneal dialysis patient

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is known to affect long-term patient survivals. Elbasvir/grazoprevir (EBR/GZR) has shown a high cure rate in hemodialysis patients with HCV infection. However, the combination is rarely used in peritoneal dialysis patients. Herein, we report a case of successful treatment with EBR/GZR in a peritoneal dialysis patient with HCV genotype 1 b infection. A 54-year-old woman on peritoneal dialysis（PD）with HCV genotype 1 b infection had been received EBR (100 mg) and GZR (50 mg) once daily for 12 weeks. Hepatitis C virus RNA was undetectable 4 weeks after the treatment. She achieved a sustained virological response at 12 weeks after the end of treatment. Only fatigue was reported as side effect during the treatment. Thus, elbasvir/grazoprevir was effective and safe in this PD patient with HCV genotype 1 b infection.
