Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of a Regimen Consisting of Peginterferon Lambda-1a + Ribavirin + Daclatasvir (Lambda + RBV + DCV) in HCV Genotype 1b Treatment naïve Patients or Prior Relapsers to Peginterferon Alfa + Ribavirin (Alfa + RBV) Therapy

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Hepatitis C
Interventions
Biological: Peginterferon Alfa-2a
Biological: Peginterferon Lambda-1a
Registration Number
NCT01718158
Lead Sponsor
Bristol-Myers Squibb
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with Pegylated Interferon Lambda-1a, given in combination with Ribavirin and Daclatasvir for 24 weeks, is as safe and effective as the standard treatment with Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a + Ribavirin + Telaprevir in subjects who are infected with Chronic Hepatitis C virus genotype 1b and have never received any prior anti-HCV treatment, or who have relapsed after an initial, successful treatment with Pegylated Interferon Alfa + Ribavirin
