Standardizing immunological assays for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) is crucial for monitoring patient immune responses. This conference highlighted the need for consistent methods in clinical immunology for viral hepatitis research.

Area of Science:

  • Clinical immunology
  • Viral hepatitis research

Background:

  • Increasing need for standardized immune response monitoring in large patient cohorts for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV).
  • Advances in immunological techniques offer detailed cellular immune analysis.
  • Current variability in laboratory protocols hinders result comparison.

Framework:

  • EASL-sponsored and AASLD-endorsed Monothematic Conference on Clinical Immunology in Viral Hepatitis convened investigators.
  • Focused on in-depth discussion, critical evaluation, and standardization of immunological assays for HBV and HCV.
  • Held at University College London, October 7-8, 2006.

Implementation:

  • Summarizes information presented and discussed at the conference.
  • Highlights areas of general agreement and controversy regarding immunological assays.
