Rockstroh, and the NEAT study group Abstract 49 Current treatment recommendations are: Consensus recommendation on treatment of acute hepatits C infection 1) Pegylated IFN and weight-based ribavirin is recommended for the treatment of acute hepatitis C in HIV infected patients (grade A, level II) Acute hepatitis C in HIV-infected individuals: recommendations from the European AIDS Treatment Network (NEAT) consensus conference The European AIDS Treatment Network (NEAT) Acute Hepatitis C Infection Consensus Panel Whether HCV genotype and addition of RBV leads to differences in treatment outcome in acute HCV with different genotypes in HIV co-infection remains unknown so far Boesecke C, et al. 63rd AASLD; Boston, MA; November 9-13, 212; Abst. 49.
