Serum α-fetoprotein level at treatment completion is a useful predictor of hepatocellular carcinoma occurrence more than one year after hepatitis C virus eradication by direct-acting antiviral treatment

Akifumi Kuwano et al.

Summary: Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) have improved liver function and increased the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) occurrence in HCV-infected patients. Serum alpha-fetoprotein level at end of treatment may serve as an independent factor predicting HCC occurrence >= 1 year after DAA treatment. Regular examinations are recommended even if serum alpha-fetoprotein level is low at treatment completion.
