Brief Summary

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

This randomized, double-blind, multi-center, parallel-group study will evaluate the sustained virologic response and the safety of mericitabine (RO5024048) (MCB) in combination with telaprevir (TVR) and peginterferon Alfa-2a (PEG-IFN) / ribavirin (RBV) in participants with chronic Hepatitis C infection.
