Daklinsa ® is used only as part of combined therapy regimens.It is necessary to get acquainted with the side effect of the medications included in the treatment regimen before the initiation of therapy. Unwanted drug reactions (NLR) associated with the use of sophosbuvira, asunaprevir, peginterferon alfa and ribavirin are described in the instructions for use of these drugs.
The safety of daklataswir was evaluated in clinical studies in patients with chronic hepatitis C who received 60 mg of Daklins® once a day in combination with sophosbuvir; asunaprevir and / or peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. The safety data are presented below for treatment regimens.
Daklatasvir + asunaprevir
The safety of daklataswir in combination with asunaprevir was evaluated in 4 studies with an average duration of 24 weeks. The most common (frequency of 10% and higher) of NLR observed in clinical trials using a therapy regimen daklataswirasunaprevir, were headache (15%) and increased fatigue (12%). Most NLDs were mild and moderate in severity. 6% of patients experienced serious adverse events (SLE), 3% of patients discontinued treatment due to the occurrence of NLP.In this case, the most common adverse events (AEs) leading to discontinuation of treatment were an increase in the activity of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (ACT). In a clinical study of therapy daklataswir + asunaprevir during the first 12 weeks of treatment, the reported frequency of HLR was similar between patients receiving placebo and patients receiving this therapy.
NLR, which occurred in ≥5% of patients with chronic hepatitis C with the combination daklataswir + asunaprevir, are presented below. The frequency of occurrence of NLR is shown in accordance with the scale: very often (≥ 1/10), often (≥ 1/100 and <1/10).

Daklutasvir + sophosbuvir
The safety of daklataswir in combination with sophosbuvir has been evaluated in clinical studies involving a patient with HCV genotypes 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6, including patients with co-infection with HCV and HIV, patients with severe cirrhosis, and patients with relapse of HCV infection after liver transplantation . The duration of therapy was 8, 12 or 24 weeks. The most common NLR (frequency 10% and higher) were increased fatigue (19%), headache (15%) and nausea (11%). Most NLDs were mild and moderate in severity.In 5% of patients, SNRI was registered. Four percent of patients discontinued treatment because of AEs, only one of which is considered to be relevant to the study therapy.
NLR, which occurred in ≥5% of patients with chronic hepatitis C with the combination daklataswir + sophosbuvier (with or without ribavirin) are presented below. The frequency of occurrence of NLR is shown in accordance with the scale: very often (≥ 1/10), often (≥ 1/100 and <1/10).

a - adverse reactions, the relationship of which with the use of the drug, at least, is possible. Combined data from several studies.
b - 43% of patients in clinical trials took ribavirin in addition to the combination daklutasvir + sophosbuvir: there have been no cases of anemia.
Daklataswir at combination with asunaprevir, peginterferon alfa and ribavirin
The safety of daklataswir in combination with asunaprevir, peginterferon alfa and ribavirin was evaluated in a clinical trial HALLMARK QUAD with an average duration of 24 weeks. The most common NLRs (frequency 15% and higher), observed in clinical studies using a therapy regimen daklatasvir + asunaprevir + peginterferon alfa + ribavirin were: fatigue (39%), headache (28%), pruritus (25%), asthenia (23%), flu-like condition (22%), insomnia (21%), anemia (19%), rash (18 %), alopecia (16%), irritability (16%), nausea (15%). Additional side effects that occurred in patients with chronic hepatitis C when using a therapy regimen daklataswir + asunaprevir + peginterferon alfa + ribavirin, dry skin (15%), decreased appetite (12%), muscle pain (14%), fever (15%), cough (13%), dyspnea (11%), neutropenia (14%), lymphopenia (1%), diarrhea (14%), joint pain (9%). Most NLDs were mild and moderate in severity. In six percent of patients, SNAP was registered. Five percent of patients discontinued treatment due to AE, the most common AEs leading to discontinuation of treatment were rash, malaise, dizziness and neutropenia.
In a clinical study of therapy daklataswir + asunaprevir + peginterferon alfa +ribavirin the frequency of reported HLR was similar between patients receiving placebo and patients receiving this therapy, with the exception of 2 NLP-asthenia and influenza-like conditions.These HLR were the only ones that occurred at a minimum rate of 5% higher than among patients receiving a placebo.
Daklatasvir in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin
The safety of daklataswir was evaluated in 10 clinical trials in patients with chronic hepatitis C who received 60 mg of Daklins® once a day in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. The most common NLR (frequency 15% and higher) were fatigue (37%), headache (28%), itching (23%), anemia (22%), flu-like condition (22%), nausea (20%), insomnia (20%), neutropenia (20%), asthenia (20%), rash (19%), loss of appetite (18%), dry skin (18%), alopecia (17%) and fever (15%).
In clinical trials, no NLR was detected with a frequency of at least 5% higher in patients receiving therapy including daklataswir, compared with patients receiving placebo, peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. In patients receiving placebo in conjunction with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, grade 3-4 ILD occurred more often (24%) than in patients treated with a combination daklataswir + peginterferon alfa + ribavirin (20%).
The incidence of fixed SLE associated with the therapy received, as well as the suspension of therapy for AEs, were similar in both of the above groups of patients.
The level of AE in subgroups of patients with cirrhosis who received combination therapy daklataswir + peginterferon alfa + ribavirin, was similar to that in patients treated with placebo in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin (92% against 96% respectively).
