Short answer: For genotype 1s, a viral load drop of at least 2log (that'd be
99%) by week 12 is generally necessary to remain in the running for SVR, and
clearing by week 12 portends a very good shot at SVR.
Conversely, failure to reach a 2log drop at week 12, or not being clear by
week 24, are profoundly negative indicators for SVR for g1s. Not clearing by
24 weeks usually leads to treatment discontinuation if following the
conventional treatment regimen.
