Long-term follow-up analysis of RAVS in HCV NS3, NS5A, and NS5B in DAA therapy failure patients (ILC 2015) - Presentation time: Friday 24 April 2015, 13:00 - 13:30; Abstract #P0767; P=NA, N=12; "Variable rates of persistence of RAVs in patients with failure to NS3, NS5A and NS5B inhibitors have been observed. While generally RAVs to protease inhibitors tend to decline and RAVs to NS5A inhibitors persist in single patients, highly resistant variants have been observed up to 3 years after treatment failure."

Highly efficient infectious cell culture of three HCV genotype 2b strains and sensitivity to lead protease, NS5A, and polymerase inhibitors (Hepatology) - PMID: 23913364; "NS5B inhibitors Sofosbuvir, Mericitabine, and BI207127 had activity against 1a (strain TN), 2a...and the 2b strains, whereas VX-222 and Filibuvir only inhibited 1a. Genotype 2b strains were least sensitive to seven lead protease inhibitors, including MK-5172....NS5A inhibitor Daclatasvir was exceptionally potent, but efficacy was affected by the HCV strain."
