2 Fig. 1 The challenge of G3 cirrhosis. SVR rates are shown with currently and soon-to-be approved regimens for patients with genotype 3 and cirrhosis. Although encouraging progress has been made, results for this sub-group of patients remain suboptimal compared to other populations.

3 Fig. 2 Schematic representation of DAA development in order to reach global HCV elimination. The vast majority of patients who receive all oral DAA therapy will achieve sustained virological response (green). However, a second generation of drugs will address the unresolved issues for patients where current treatments are still not satisfactory (red; blue bubbles). Refinement of drug delivery approaches will be necessary to achieve ‘cure-all’ treatments.
