Restoration of Innate and Adaptive Immune Responses by HCV Viral Inhibition with an Induction Approach Using Natural Interferon-Beta in Chronic Hepatitis C

<table>Effect of RBV plus PEG-IFN-alpha 2b using an “induction” approach with CPIT (NCT) on serum cytokines (a), (a′) and chemokines (b), (b′) in chronic hepatitis C patients with high viral load, genotype 1b (serotype I), and wild or intermediate types of ISDR (late virological responders). RBV: ribavirin, PEG-IFN: pegylated interferon, CPIT: cyclic and periodic interferon treatment, NCT: novel combination treatment.
