Drivers of HCV evolution - lessons from a single source outbreak Jörg Timm AREVIR 2017
What is the East-German Anti-D cohort? "Anti-D" November 1977 acute HCV?? Source February 1978 March 1978 Infusion of contaminated IgG to 2850 women between 8/1978 and 1/1979
Phylogenetic analysis of sequences from the Anti-D outbreak Patient Sequences after 30 years Sequences from patients and the source
What is the origin of the different clades in the source? Source of distinct clades?
Sequences of 4 immunoglobulin donors

IL28B Genotype – impact on clinical presentation p=0.032 not C/C C/C Tillmann et al. Gastroenterology. 2010

Substitution rate – Inside vs. Outside known CD8 epitopes Substitution rate in the non-structural proteins NS3-NS5B non-synonymous synonymous Substitutions per codon Substitutions per codon p<0.001 inside outside inside outside Ruhl et al. Gastroenterology. 2010
Substitution rate – Inside vs. Outside known CD8 epitopes NS3/4A NS5B 3.6 fold 3.8 fold Substitutions per codon Substitutions per codon inside outside inside outside About 30% of the mutations in NS3 and NS5B are located inside previously described CD8 epitopes. Ruhl et al. Gastroenterology. 2010

Did the HLA class I genotype impact clade selection upon transmission?
