Antiviral therapy in chronic hepatitis E: a systematic review. J Viral Hepat. 2015 Dec; 22(12):965-73. Abstract Hepatitis E viral infection can lead to a chronic infection in immunocompromised patients, resulting in progressive liver disease and cirrhosis. Isolated cases have shown that treatment with ribavirin or pegylated interferon-α can result in viral eradication. This systematic review evaluated efficacy and safety of both treatments in chronic hepatitis E. A systematic literature search was performed on PubMed, Web of Science and clinicaltrials.gov for articles and abstracts. Published on: Dec-2015 Read more
