There is one clinical trial.
This study will define the substantial disease burden associated with viral hepatitis in India, and provide a foundation to understand the host and viral determinants of disease pathogenesis that may ultimately impact treatment decisions and outcome
Characterize the SNPs present in innate immune factors TLR7 (rs3853839, rs179008); TLR9 (rs41308230, rs5743844 ); RIG-I (rs11795404, rs10813831) and NOD2 (rs2067085, rs2066842), in patients with chronic hepatitis C or chronic hepatitis B in the different geographic regions of India.
Description: Characterize the variation in the IL28B rs12979860 SNP that exists among patients with chronic hepatitis C or chronic hepatitis B infection, in the different geographic regions of India
Measure: Variation in the IL28B rs12979860 SNP Time: One VisitDescription: Assess the prevalence of HBV and HCV genotypes and subtypes in different geographic regions of India
Measure: Prevelance of HBV and HCV genotypes Time: One VisitDescription: Characterize the SNPs present in innate immune factors TLR7 (rs3853839, rs179008); TLR9 (rs41308230, rs5743844 ); RIG-I (rs11795404, rs10813831) and NOD2 (rs2067085, rs2066842), in patients with chronic hepatitis C or chronic hepatitis B in the different geographic regions of India
