Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this observational study is to compare two approved treatment regimen(s) containing boceprevir and telaprevir, as part of standard of care for the treatment of hepatitis C.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objective of the study is to compare the effect of adding 2 oral hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease inhibitors, telaprevir versus boceprevir, as part of current standard treatment regimen with (pegylated-interferon-alpha + ribavirin) for HCV Genotype-1 infection. Data will be obtained from medical records of consenting patients.
