Brief Summary

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

This observational study will evaluate the predictive value of rapid virological response (RVR) and early virological response (EVR) on sustained virological response (SVR) by stage of liver fibrosis in treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 initiated on treatment with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and Copegus (ribavirin). Patients will be followed for 48 weeks of treatment and up to 24 weeks of follow-up.
