Brief Summary

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

This prospective, national, multicenter, non-interventional study examined the use of triple combination therapy with boceprevir, pegylated interferon (peginterferon) alfa-2a and ribavirin in re-treating participants with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C (CHC) infection. Dosing and treatment duration were at the discretion of the investigator in accordance with local clinical practice and local labeling. Participants were to be observed for the duration of their triple combination therapy and for up to 24 weeks thereafter.
