Abstract excerpt

To investigate the influence of immunogenetics on response to interferon (IFN)-alpha treatment, human leukocyte antigen alleles were characterized in 100 unrelated Taiwanese patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. A11, B51, Cw15, and DRB1*15 were positively correlated with sustained response, whereas A24 was inversely associated with response to IFN-alpha, after adjustment for cirrhosis,...
