Viral hepatitis is the seventh leading cause of mortality worldwide. Hepatitis C virus comprises almost half of this mortality, ultimately leading to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In 2008, the predominance of HCV infection in Egypt was the most noteworthy in the world, near 15% of the populace were seropositive, and approximately 90% of patients were infected with genotype 4 (GT4). In 2015, the National Demographic Health Survey proved a noticeable drop in HCV burden to 6.3% among the population.Egypt launched one of the largest treatment programmes for controlling viral hepatitis with direct-acting antiviral (DAAs)-based regimens that aim to treat above 250,000 chronically infected individuals per year. Sofosbuvir combination-based regimens were designed as a promising regimen for the treatment of HCV GT4 patients. HCV infection is a complex multifactorial process that involves multiple viral and host interactions. Besides, the high mutation rate of HCV that enables the virus to generate escape mutants resistant to treatment, emphasizing the need for a proper understanding of the pathogenesis of HCV infection, and various research efforts should be oriented to develop novel diagnostic and prognostic molecular tools
