This interactive tool tracks a patient’s progress on therapy by calculating and graphically representing changes in HCV RNA over time. The tool also generates key patient evaluation dates and interprets the patient progress by providing definitions for endpoints of response and by reporting when a patient has reached these treatment goals. The tool has the capability to save patient data on the user’s own computer, making it available for editing upon subsequent uses.

This interactive tool tracks a patient’s progress on therapy by calculating and graphically representing changes in HBV DNA over time. The tool also generates key patient evaluation dates and interprets the patient progress over time by highlighting response patterns and tailoring responses according to treatment history. The tool has the capability to save patient data only on the end-user’s computer, making it available for editing upon subsequent uses.

This tool guides HCV treaters through baseline factors involved in making treatment decisions and emphasizes how responses to therapy affect on-treatment management decisions. The tool is based on current published treatment guidelines, and is enhanced with expert data analysis by Emmet B. Keeffe, MD, MACP, who highlights for users the new and evolving data that may weigh in on treatment decisions for HCV-infected patients.
