Hepatitis C virus (HCV) kinetics were determined after a single administration of standard interferon (IFN) according to the HCV genotype that affects the response to antiviral therapy with IFN/peginterferon. A total of 208 patients were investigated. All patients received a single administration of 6 megaunits of standard IFN-alpha.
