Polymorphisms of the inosine triphosphatase (ITPA) gene influence anemia during pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV) therapy, but their effects during triple therapy with PEG-IFN, RBV, and telaprevir are not known. Triple therapy for 12 weeks, followed by PEG-IFN and RBV for 12 weeks, was given to 49 patients with RBV-sensitive (CC at rs1127354) and 12 with RBV-resistant (CA/AA) ITPA genotypes who had been infected with hepatitis C virus (H CV) of genotype 1. Decreases in hemoglobin levels were greater in patients with CC than CA/AA genotypes at week 2 (-1.63 +/- 0.92 vs. -0.48 +/- 0.75 g/dL, P = 0.001) and week 4 (-3.5 +/- 1.1 vs. -2.2 +/- 0.96, P = 0.001), as well as at the end of treatment (-2.9 +/- 1.1 vs. -2.0 +/- 0.86, P = 0.013).
