Descriptions
The CC genotype is associated with a greater rate of sustained virological response than the TT or CT genotypes. Source: LOINC partner 1
The Interleukin-28b (IL28B) gene is located on chromosome 19q13.13 and encodes interferon-lambda-3 (IFN-lambda-3). IL28B belongs to the gene family of interleukins and interleukin receptors. A single nucleotide polymorphism (g.39738787C>T, rs12979860) located near the IL28B gene is known to alter hepatitis C treatment-induced viral clearance. It is associated with an approximately twofold change in response to pegylated interferon-alpha (PEG-IFN-alpha) and ribavirin (RBV) treatments, both among patients of European ancestry (p = 1.06 x 10e-25) and African-Americans (p = 2.06 x 10e-3). Studies indicate that the virus was eradicated in ~80% of patients with wildtype alleles (C;C) compared to only about 25% of those with homozygous alleles (T;T). Patient's with heterozygous alleles (C;T) had an intermediate response. For HCV genotypes other than type 1 (HCV-1), the usefulness of predicting response to therapy based on this SNP is unknown.
