Evidence has shown that the p7, NS2 and NS3 genes affect the outcome of pegylated-IFN-α/ribavirin (PEG-IFN/RBV) combination therapy in different populations with HCV infections. Here, we test the hypothesis that diversity in the p7, NS2 and NS3 genes influences the probability of obtaining either a sustained (SVR) or non-sustained (non-SVR) viral response in Chinese patients with genotype 1b chronic hepatitis C....
