Role of ITPA and SLC28A2 genes in the prediction of anaemia associated with protease inhibitor plus ribavirin and peginterferon in hepatitis C treatment
Highlights • Clinically significant anaemia was detected in HCV patients receiving protease inhibitor + peg-interferon + ribavirin. • Univariate analysis showed that SLC28A2 rs11854484 and ITPA rs1127354 polymorphisms plays a critical role in anaemia outcome. • Anaemia represents the most frequent c...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Clinically significant anaemia was detected in HCV patients receiving protease inhibitor + peg-interferon + ribavirin. • Univariate analysis showed that SLC28A2 rs11854484 and ITPA rs1127354 polymorphisms plays a critical role in anaemia outcome. • Anaemia represents the most frequent cause for the discontinuation of therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C infection. • We established a protective haplotype combining ITPA rs1127354 and SLC28A2 rs11854484 genotypes. • These findings could optimize the management of treatment-induced anaemia in hepatitis C infection. |
