Efficacy of Polyethylene Glycol-Interferon Alfa-2B (PEG-Intron, SCH 54031) Compared to Interferon Alfa-2B in Participants With Chronic Hepatitis C (MK-4031-016)

Hepatitis C Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparison of Polyethylene Glycol-Interferon Alfa-2B (PEG-Intron, SCH 54031) vs. Interferon Alfa-2B for Treatment of Adult Subjects With Chronic Hepatitis C Not Previously Treated With Interferon: Dose Finding Study

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will determine the efficacy of PEG-Intron (SCH 54031) in participants with chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who have not been previously treated with interferon. Participants are randomized to receive one of three doses of PEG-Intron (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mg/kg) or Interferon Alfa-2B for 48 weeks. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PEG-Intron (compared to Interferon Alfa-2B) with respect to response based on loss of detectable HCV ribonucleic acid (HCV-RNA) and normalization of alanine transaminase (ALT) level after 24 weeks of therapy and at 24 weeks of follow-up.
