TAKE HOME MESSAGES

• Important role of IL28B genotypes on the rate of spontaneous clearance and on likelihood of response to pegIFNα-RBV therapy in HIV/HCV-coinfected individuals, including prior IFNα-experienced patients.

• Broader influence of IL28B genotypes on HCV disease, including viral replication and liver injury.

IMPLICATIONS

• Universal IL28B testing in all individuals with chronic hepatitis C. Cheap and once in life.

• The Prometheus index might be a helpful baseline tool to guide therapeutic decisions.

• Given the faster progression to cirrhosis and increased response to therapy, IL28B CC carriers should be prioritized
