No data are available for the kinetics of anti-Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) antibodies in HIV/HCV co-infected patients after sustained virological response (SVR). We present a case of a HIV/HCV co-infected patient, showing a significant anti-HCV antibodies decrease during therapy, who achieved a HCV seroreversion 3 years after SVR. Among them, antibodies to core protein, the most strongly antigenic protein showed significant decrease. Our results indicate an absence of antigenic stimulation suggesting a total clearance of HCV.
