Article Synopsis
  • Successful treatment of chronic hepatitis C with oral DAAs can lead to a viral cure, but patients still face an ongoing risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), prompting the need for surveillance.
  • A microsimulation model was used to assess the cost-effectiveness of biannual HCC surveillance for patients who have been cured, comparing varying durations of monitoring against no surveillance.
  • Results showed that biannual surveillance is cost-effective for cured patients, detecting more early-stage HCC cases and yielding additional quality-adjusted life years, with optimal surveillance stopping at age 70 for cirrhosis patients and age 60 for those with advanced fibrosis.

Human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated anal and oropharyngeal cancer incidence has increased in recent years among US women.
