For patients with stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, 12 weeks of treatment with glecaprevir and pibrentasvir results in a high rate of sustained virologic response, according to a study published online Oct. 11 in the New England Journal of Medicine. Edward Gane, M.D., from Auckland City Hospital in New Zealand, and colleagues conducted a multicenter trial to examine the efficacy and safety of combination treatment with the NS3/4A protease inhibitor glecaprevir and the NS5A inhibitor pibrentasvir for 12 weeks in adults with HCV infection and compensated liver disease with severe renal impairment, dependence on dialysis, or both. Participants had stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease. One hundred four patients were enrolled in the trial. The researchers found that the sustained virologic response rate was 98 percent. During treatment, none of the patients had virologic failure, and none had a virologic relapse after the end of treatment. Pruritus, fatigue, and nausea were reported in at least 10 percent of the patients. Twenty-four percent of the patients reported serious adverse events. Because of adverse events, four patients discontinued the trial treatment prematurely; three of these had sustained virologic response

As a cardiologist, your expertise includes the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of heart and blood vessel diseases. Patients of all ages may be sent to you, or perhaps you have chosen to specialize in an area like geriatric or pediatric cardiology. And even though you have completed an extensive amount of internal medicine and cardiology education to-date, on-going training requirements must still be fulfilled. We can help you find continuing medical education (CME) courses that are just as specialized as your skill set. Our database of cardiology medical conferences can help you find CME opportunities that meet your needs. In addition to general cardiovascular medicine events, we feature conferences dedicated to specific topics like heart rhythm, echocardiography, hypertension and more. Register for events hosted by leading hospitals in cardiology such as the Cleveland Clinic and the Mayo Clinic. Are you ready to attend your next cardiology conference? To get started, review our list of upcoming Fellows courses, annual updates, case reviews, forums and more.
