Study design details

Main study objective

To characterize the de novo HCC cases that occurred with and without DAA treatment.

Data analysis plan

A descriptive analysis of patients treated with any DAA who develop HCC after DAA initiation and patients who develop HCC without DAA treatment. No direct comparisons of treatment groups will be performed. Summary statistics were provided as mean (SD) for continuous variables, for all individuals with non-missing values, and N (%) for categorical variables. Patient characteristics were assessed over the period from data start through 1 day prior to HCC diagnosis. For characteristics with multiple measurements or assessments (i.e. labs, fibrosis stage, etc.), the value closest but prior to HCC diagnosis was selected.
