Due to concerns that antineoplastic therapy produces prolonged decrease in immune function, interferon treatment of chronic active hepatitis C (CAHC) has been used only at one year or longer after the end of cancer therapy. We report the experience of an 11-year-old who developed symptomatic CAHC at
The clinical importance of hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome variability has been reported recently. One example is the occurrence of hepatitis B virus pre-core mutants, which arise during spontaneous or interferon-induced seroconversion from HBeAg to anti-HBe and are thought to be selected by immune p
In chronic hepatitis B, it is difficult to predict an early therapeutic response. We investigated the viral decline during therapy with pegylated interferon alpha-2b (PEG-IFN) with or without lamivudine in 266 HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients. In patients treated with PEG-IFN and lamivudi
