Twenty-one pretreatment variables were assessed for their significance in response prediction using data from 114 patients given a-interferon for chronic hepatitis B virus infection. In those patients who had received a minimum of 90 million units per m2 total dose over 12 weeks, a negative anti-hum
## Abstract Patients with high viral load (β₯1.0βΓβ10^5^ IU/ml) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b do not achieve high sustained virological response rates to interferon (IFN)/ribavirin combination therapy. Previous studies suggested that pretreatment amino acid (aa) substitution patterns in the
