We tested serial serum samples for hepatitis C virus RNA from patients undergoing treatment for chronic hepatitis C with interferon-a using an assay that combined reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction. The subjects studied were 20 patients with chronic hepatitis who had serum antibody
We reanalyzed the results of a pilot study of recombinant alpha-interferon therapy for chronic non-A, non-B hepatitis in light of the recent discovery of the hepatitis C virus and the development of diagnostic assays for this agent. Stored serum samples from 10 patients treated between 1984 and 1986
## Abstract In interferon treatment of chronic hepatitis C patients, the biochemical and virological responses mostly parallel each other. However, some patients who show persistent ALT normalization display continued viremia after cessation of therapy. High‐density hepatitis C virus (HCV) particle
