Insulin resistance affects sustained virological response (SVR) in chronic hepatitis C. To know whether adding metformin to standard antiviral treatment improves SVR, we conducted a prospective, multicentered, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial in 19 Spanish hospitals, including 12
## 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
