- Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-28B gene polymorphism is closely linked with treatment response to peginterferon plus ribavirin combination therapy for hepatitis C virus genotype 1. However, few studies have reported its effects on therapy for genotype 2. We aimed to examine the effects of IL-28B gene polymorphism on treatment response in hepatitis C virus genotype 2 patients.
