Abstract
The identification of the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) at rs8099917 and rs12979860 loci of IL-28B gene is presently necessary for patients with the genotype HCV-1 to predict sustained viral response (SVR) in case of combined antiviral therapy with interferon and ribavirin. In addition to the implementation of the antiviral activity of IFN-a, interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interferon-gamma (IFN-y) are involved. The goal of this work was to evaluate the efficacy of the HCV therapy with cytokines in patients unresponsive to previous therapy with unfavorable genotypes of IL-28B gene. SVR was achieved in 44.4% of patients with an unfavorable IL-28B genetic background with biochemical response without serious adverse effects or unexpected adverse effects, thereby corroborating the inclusion of proven safety Betaleukin® and Ingaron in the schemes of the antiviral therapy in combination with standard interferon-a and ribavirin in patients with recurrent HCV-infection.
