Hepatitis c blood study halted early: what it means
NCT ID NCT06564051
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study aimed to see how often people with chronic hepatitis C have a blood condition called monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (MBL), and whether treating hepatitis C affects MBL. Researchers planned to enroll 29 participants and compare blood samples before and after hepatitis C treatment. However, the study was terminated early, so the findings are incomplete.
