We have investigated the efficacy of a relatively prolonged course of recombinant leukocyte interferon treatment in 14 chronic HBsAg-, HBeAg-, hepatitis B virus DNA-and DNA polymerasepositive carriers. a-Interferon was administered for 9 weeks. Six of 14 treated carriers have a sustained loss of HBe
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infections are known to run a self-limiting course. Recently, chronic hepatitis E has been described in immunosuppressed patients after solid-organ transplantation. Besides the general recommendation to lower the immunosuppressive medication in these patients, there is curren
## Abstract The effectiveness of a daily continuous infusion of interferonβalpha was evaluated in 12 patients (10 males, 2 females; mean age of 33 years, range 19β62) with biopsyβproven chronic active hepatitis C. Nine million units (MU) of recombinant interferonβalpha 2A (rIFNβΞ± 2A) were administe
Following our earlier observation of clinically evident optic tract neuropathy in patients receiving low-dose interferon (IFN) therapy, we prospectively evaluated 53 consecutive patients treated for chronic hepatitis B or C with a median dose of 3 MU of IFN-a 2b thrice weekly. Measurements included
