Abstract
Final results from the long-term Viral Hepatitis C Infection Long-term Cohort Study (V-HICS) found low rates of hepatitis C virus (HCV) recurrence after direct-acting antiviral therapy in both HCV/human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-coinfected (0.67/100 person-years) and HCV-infected (0.2/100 person-years) groups with >500 person-years of follow-up. Confirmed reinfections were in participants with HIV who reported high-risk behaviors.
