EASL Studio Podcast: Hepatitis C, Re-infection or Failure of Treatment in People Engaging in High Risk Practices – Do These Labels Matter in 2025?

Season 9 Episode 3

What do we call it when someone with high-risk practices becomes viraemic again after treatment? In this episode, experts discuss the challenges of managing Hepatitis C in people who inject drugs (PWID) and other high-risk groups. Topics include SVR confirmation rates, DAA prescribing practices, acute vs. chronic infection, and real-world reinfection data. Are traditional labels still meaningful or do we need new frameworks for 2025?

Moderator: Ahmed Elsharkawy

Speakers: Ashley Brown, Tatyana Kushner and Sabela Lens
