Study Overview
Brief Summary
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.

Arms & Interventions
Triple Combination Therapy
Participants who demonstrated genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C infection and had a history of unsuccessful treatment with pegylated interferon (peginterferon) alfa + ribavirin, and who were subjected to receive a triple combination therapy with simeprevir or boceprevir plus peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin were observed.
Intervention: Boceprevir (Drug)
Triple Combination Therapy

Intervention: Simeprevir (Drug)

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Sustained Virological Response 24 (SVR24) Rate
Time Frame: 24 weeks after end of treatment (EOT) at Week 72
The SVR 24 rate is defined as percentage of participants with Hepatitis C virus (HCV) Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) less than 15 international unit/milliliter (IU/mL) after the 24-weeks follow-up.
Secondary Outcomes

- Number of Participants With Adverse Events(Up to 72 weeks)
- Percentage of Participants With Virological Response(Weeks 4, 8, 12, and 24)
- Percentage of Participants With Positive Predictive Value of Liver Fibrosis(Screening (before Week 1))
- Number of Participants With Virological Breakthrough(Up to Week 48)
- Percentage of Participants With Positive Predictive Value of Participant Demographics for SVR Rate(Screening (before Week 1))
- Predictive Value of HCV Disease Characteristics(Screening (before Week 1))
- Number of Participants With Virological Relapse(Week 49 up to Week 72)
- Number of Participants With Treatment Discontinuation(Up to Week 48)
- Percentage of Participants With Positive Predictive Value of Previous Virological Response (Null-response, Partial Response, or Relapse)(Up to 72 weeks)
