SummaryBackgroundSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of interleukin‐28B (IL28B) were associated with sustained virological response (SVR) in hepatitis C virus genotype 1 (HCV‐1) infected patients treated with a standard 48‐week regimen of peginterferon and ribavirin combination. Whether IL28B SNP genotype would be the influential prognosticator for patients treated with response‐guided therapy (RGT) is still not well understood.AimsTo investigate the impact of IL28B rs809917 genotype on HCV‐1 infected patients treated with RGT.MethodsA total of 128 consecutive treatment‐naïve HCV‐1 infected patients between July 2006 and July 2011 were analyzed. For rapid virological response (RVR) patients, we allowed an abbreviated 24‐week regimen regardless of baseline viral loads; otherwise, a 48‐week regimen was implemented (for patients with early virological response). The IL28B rs8099917 SNP genotypes were determined accordingly.ResultsA total of 117 patients (91.4%) were of rs8099917 TT genotype and 11 (8.6%) were of GT/GG genotype. Eighty‐two of the 128 (64.1%) patients achieved SVR, occurring in 54 of 67 RVR patients (80.6%) and 28 of 61 non‐RVR patients (45.9%, p < 0.001). Compared to the GT/GG genotype, patients with the TT genotype had significantly higher SVR rates (67.5% vs. 27.3%; p = 0.008) and low relapse rates (28.2% vs. 70.0%; p = 0.006). The multivariate analysis showed that RVR (odds ratio, 4.51; 95% confidence interval, 1.87–10.90; p = 0.001) and rs8099917 TT genotype (odds ratio, 6.91; 95% confidence interval, 1.53–31.17; p = 0.012) were independent factors associated with SVR.ConclusionFor HCV‐1 infected patients who were treated with RGT, the IL28B unfavorable genotype predicted a higher relapse rate; RVR and IL28B favorable genotype were independent factors associated with SVR in patients treated with RGT.
