Interferon-alpha has been widely used in chronic hepatitis C, but controlled studies with intramuscular interferon-beta are lacking. We therefore performed a prospective, double-blind, randomized study comparing intramuscular IFN-alpha and -beta in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Sixty patients were randomly assigned to receive 3 MU thrice weekly intramuscularly of either recombinant IFN-alpha or leukocyte...
