Brief Summary

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

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of alisporivir (ALV) and boceprevir (BOC), each in combination with Peginterferon alfa-2a (PEG) and Ribavirin (RBV), in African American participants who have never received treatment for their chronic hepatitis C (HCV) genotype 1 infection.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Alisporivir

At the time of partial clinical hold, participants randomized to original treatment arms A and B (Alisporivir triple therapy arms with Peginterferon alfa-2a and Ribavirin) discontinued alisporivir treatment immediately while continuing their treatments with the other two therapies. These participants were combined into the same arm because they received the same dose of alisporivir 400 mg twice per day (BID) for the same duration. Amendment 1 offered them the opportunity to continue in the study receiving boceprevir triple therapy.
