## Abstract A pilot study of chronic hepatitis C treatment was conducted in 14 patients (13 had chronic active hepatitis and 1 had liver cirrhosis). All patients were asymptomatic for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 (mean CD4 count of 584 ± 283 cells/mm^3^). Patients received 9 MU rlF
Two patients with chronic-phase chronic granulocytic leukemia initially responded to recombinant interferon a-2a (rlFN-a-2a) but relapsed as a result of development of hightiter neutralizing antibodies to rlFN-a-Sa. Both patients were subsequently treated with natural leukocyte IFN-(Y (IFN-a-n3), an
