Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Primary Objective: To evaluate the long-term outcomes including liver related morbidity, mortality and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development as compared to those of historical control with interferon(IFN)-based treatment. Secondary Objective: 1. To access liver fibrosis progression/regression in CHC patients after sofosbuvir-based treatment. 2. To investigate the long-term outcomes of extrahepatic manifestations of the sofosbuvir-based treated cohort as compared to their pretreatment status.
