A review of the use of interferon (IFN) as monotherapy in children demonstrates a sustained virological response (SVR) of 33%-45%. This is significantly better than the SVR rate for IFN monotherapy observed for adults. When the data are further scrutinized, the SVR for genotype 1 is 26% and 70% for...
