Sustained Virologic Response to Peginterferon α-2a and Ribavirin in 335 Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C: A Tertiary Care Center Experience

BACKGROUND/AIM: This retrospective study assessed the efficacy, safety, and the predictors of sustained viral response (SVR) to a 48-week-course of peginterferon α-2a (Pegasys) and ribavirin combination therapy in 335 consecutive Saudi patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
