Brief Summary:
This study evaluates the incidence of monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis MBL) in patients with chronic hepatitis C and to determine if monoclonal b-cell lymphocytosis is affected by treatment for hepatitis C.
Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the prevalence of MBL in patients with chronic hepatitis C who are to begin therapy with directly acting antiviral (DAA), and compare with clinic controls who are seen in the general medicine clinic at Mayo Clinic.
II. To determine the correlation between the specific subtype of MBL (CD5- MBL, atypical CLL-phenotype MBL and CLL-phenotype MBL) relative to the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype.
III. To assess the proportion of individuals with MBL who have an improvement in the circulating monoclonal B-cell population following therapy with DAA.
