Popis: The article analyzed the prognostic significance of IL28b gene polymorphism with regard to the success of antiviral therapy in 152 patients with chronic hepatitis C (63.8 % men and 36.2 % women). Molecular and genetic analysis of IL28V (rs12979860) gene polymorphism, located at a distance of 3 thousand nucleotide pairs from IL28V gene, using the polymerase chain reaction allows to predict the success of combination antiviral therapy, and the presence of C/C genotype can be a predictor of sustained virological response in patients chronic hepatitis C.
