Can it be considered as a cure if there is no free circulating HCV? With this antibody, the virus released from infected cell will be neutralized. After all viral particles leave the cell, can this cell be virus free and function as normal?

I don't think it can get inside, seems to me that the idea is to neutralize as much as possible free virions with the antibodies outside cells, so those virions cannot re-infect cells.
