Hepatitis C Virus – Epidemiology – Emerging Markets Data
Clarivate Epidemiology’s coverage of hepatitis Cc virus (HCV) comprises epidemiological estimates of key patient populations inacross 45 countries worldwide. We report both the incidence and prevalence of HCV for each country, as well as annualized case counts projected to the national population.
Clarivate Epidemiology’s HCV forecast will answer the following questions:
- How will changes in the levels of exposure to known risk or protective factors affect the number of people diagnosed with HCV eachper year?
- How will improvements in survival change the number of people living with HCV?
- Of all people with HCV, how many in each country across the world have been formally diagnosed?
- Of all people diagnosed with HCV, how many in each country across the world are drug-treated?
- How will demographic trends, such as population aging and improving life expectancy, affect the epidemiology of HCV over the forecast period?
All forecast data are available on the Clarivate Insights Platform in tabular format, with options to download to MS Excel. All populations are accompanied by a comprehensive description of the methods and data sources used, with hyperlinks to external sources. A summary evidence table generated as part of our systematic review of the epidemiological literature is also provided for full transparency into research and methods.
In total, Clarivate Epidemiology forecasts 49 HCV patient populations, asincluding the followings:
- Diagnosed GT3 viremic non–cirrhotic prevalent cases.
- Viremic cirrhotic prevalent cases.
- Drug-treatedment GT3 viremic non–cirrhotic sustained virologic response (svrSVR) events.
- Drug-treatedment GT2 viremic cirrhotic events.
- Viremic non–cirrhotic prevalent cases.
- Diagnosed GT2 viremic cirrhotic prevalent cases.
- GT3 viremic prevalent cases.
- Drug-treatedment GT4+ viremic non–cirrhotic events.
- Drug-treatedment GT3 viremic cirrhotic svrSVR events.
- Drug-treatedment GT1 viremic non–cirrhotic events.
- … and many more (details available on request).

Thomas J. Arndt, M.P.H., C.P.H., is a senior epidemiologist at Clarivate. He earned his master’s degree in public health at the University of Florida, where he conducted an internship developing a clinical model for noninvasively screening for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). He also holds a B.S. in microbiology and cell science and a B.A. in Spanish, both from the University of Florida. While studying at the University of Florida, Mr. Arndt worked in two physiology-based research labs focusing on maternal and fetal stresses during pregnancy and parturition.
