That's not possible unless the person was in the New York Cosmos trials.  The meds everyone is on or coming off now have only been active since late Nov 2013, with S&O only being used since late Dec and for most places, since mid Jan of this year.  So count out 12 weeks and then add 12 weeks and you are looking at May through to now as being the oldest responders to S&O.  I finished June 27, so my three month free test is not until Sept 27.  You cannot count yourself as a SVR for S&O until 12 weeks or three months post treatment....then start ticking away for longevity.  Sorry.  It is all very new!  :  )

Yes ,I guess I was actually looking for people treated with the older triple therapy of interferon RIBA.and sovaldi . But perhaps sovaldi being a newer option as we'll has same status.

I was the first at the hospital I have been treated at to take Sovaldi along with Interferon and Ribavirin, and I started February 7, ended May 1. Was UND during treatment, and UND at 4 weeks EOT. I am 12 weeks EOT this Thursday, getting my blood draw for the HCV RNA QN test, should get my result on August 8. Tricare decided to cover Sovaldi in mid January. My 24 week EOT won't be until the end of September. We should be reading about everyone's results the upcoming weeks, and into the fall. May the force be with us all.

My wife was in some of the early clinical trials for Sovaldi/riba and has been undetected for a couple years now.
