Hepatitis C virus genotype 3: a genotype that is not 'easy-to-treat'.

Expert review of gastroenterology & hepatology - 1 Mar 2015

Buti Maria, Esteban Rafael

Abstract excerpt

The efficacy of antiviral treatment depends on which of the seven genotypes (G1-G7) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) has infected the patient. Conventionally, clinicians regarded G2 and G3 infections as 'easy-to-treat': dual therapy with pegylated interferon and ribavirin produces a sustained virologic response in approximately 40-50% of patients with G1 infection, compared with 80% when analyses report combined data...
