Study to Assess the Efficacy of 12 Versus 24 Weeks of Extended Treatment in HCV-Genotype 2/3 Patients — OPTEX2/3  

Hepatitis C, Chronic Clinical Trial

Official title:
Optimization of Treatment for Patients With Chronic Hepatitis C Infected With HCV-genotype 2 or 3: 12 vs. 24 Weeks of Treatment Extension for Patients Without Rapid Virological Response

Clinical Trial Summary

In this study we intend to treat patients with chronic hepatitis C of genotype 2 or 3 having characteristics associated with poor treatment response for additional 12 or 24 weeks beyond the standard treatment of PEG-IFN alpha-2b plus ribavirin.

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of a treatment extension of 12 versus 24 weeks in patients with HCV-genotypes 2 and 3 who are treated with 1.5 µg/kg PEG-IFN alpha-2b and 800-1400 mg ribavirin (standard dose) for 24 weeks (standard duration) and who are not HCV-RNA negative (< 15 IU/ml) after 4 weeks of standard treatment but HCV-RNA negative after 16-24 weeks of standard treatment.
