Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study is to investigate whether alisporivir (ALV; DEB025) alone or in combination with either ribavirin (RBV) or peginterferon alfa-2a (PEG) is more efficient compared to standard of care (PEG+RBV) in treatment-naïve participants with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 2 and 3. In addition, triple therapy with DEB025 plus standard of care will be applied to participants not achieving rapid viral response (RVR) in the different arms.
