Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 269320 0
National distribution of the IL28B genotypes for both the rs12979860 and rs8099917 SNPs.

Both SNPs will be tested through blood testing.

At the end of recruitment
Secondary outcome [1] 279369 0
To see if there is any correlation between the IL28B genotype and pre-treatment factors such as the extent of liver fibrosis, viral load and HCV genotype 1, Self reported ethnicity years of infection and fibrosis staging ,treatment initiation status post testing and 6 and 12 months post genotyping.
All the above parameters will be collected from patients and their medical records and entered into a database.

Summary
Brief summary
This is a prospective, multicentre, single arm observational non-interventional investigator initiated study by members of the Australian Liver Association Clinical Trials Network.
This study will examine the distribution of the known IL28B polymorphisms (rs12979860 and rs8099917 SNPs) in patients with treatment naive genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C being considered for treatment in Australian clinics.
In addition to describing the IL28B distribution in the Australian cohort, we will investigate if there is any correlation between the IL28B genotype and pre-treatment factors such as the extent of liver fibrosis, viral load and HCV genotype 1 subtype.
