The currently recommended treatment for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is pegylated interferon alfa (PEG-INF) and ribavirin, which can be difficult to tolerate. More information about predicting sustained virologic response (SVR) may allow more informed treatment decisions to be made. This retros
Factors associated with sustained virological response (SVR) in patients treated for hepatitis C virus (HCV) recurrence after liver transplantation (LT) are unclear. Ninety-nine HCV-positive/hepatitis B surface antigen-negative patients received antiviral treatment (AVT) with interferon/peginterfero
Hepatitis C infects nearly 4 million Americans. Most have chronic hepatitis C (CHC), which progresses to cirrhosis in about 20% of patients. Interferon treatment leads to transient responses in about 40% of patients and apparent eradication of infection in 7% to 40% of patients. In this report, we d
