## Abstract The interferon sensitivity‐determining region (ISDR) is useful as a predictive marker of the response to interferon (IFN) therapy for chronic hepatitis patients with a Japan‐specific subtype (J‐type) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b. This marker is not useful for predicting respon
