Primary outcomePrimary: Virological Response 4 Weeks After the End of Treatment With BI 201335 or Placebo — 0.0; 14.3; 59.7; 75.0 percentage of patients

Summary

The objective was to investigate the antiviral effect, safety, and pharmacokinetics of BI 201335 (Faldaprevir), given as a soft gelatine capsule, in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infection. Combination therapy of BI 201335 (Faldaprevir) with pegylated interferon α-2a (PegIFN) and ribavirin (RBV), with or without a 3-day lead-in, was assessed in treatment-naïve (TN) and treatment experienced (TE) patients.
