" In the era of interferon (IFN)-based therapies for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, elevated interferon-γ-inducible protein 10 (IP-10; CXCL10) levels predicted poor virologic response, particularly when associated with an unfavorable IL28B non-CC genotype1,2......[this study found] SVR rates were similar irrespective of elevated baseline IP-10 levels with prospective confounding factors of IL28B genotype, HCV sub genotype, and race (Figure 3)"
