NCT02556307

Brief Summary

In this Slovenian, multi-center, observational study, the effectiveness of standard of care Peginterferon alfa-2a + ribavirin treatment in adult patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is examined. Patients were treated for 24- or 48-weeks, as prescribed by the treating physician, followed by a 24-week follow-up period.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Sustained Virological Response (SVR) According to Genotype and Previous Treatment

    SVR was defined as participants with undetectable Hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) at 24 weeks after completion of treatment. Undetectable HCV RNA was defined as a single last HCV RNA less than (\<) 20 international units per milliliter (IU/mL). SVR was evaluated based on HCV genotype (G1, G2, G3 and G4), participant's interleukin 28B genotype (CC, CT and TT), and previous treatment (treatment naive or previous treatment).

    6 months after the last study drug administration (up to 123.6 weeks)

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Percentage of Participants With Undetectable HCV RNA

    Weeks 4, 12 and at end of treatment (up to 99.6 weeks)

  • HCV RNA Values

    Baseline; Weeks 4, 12, end of treatment (up to 99.6 weeks) and 6 months after end of treatment (up to 123.6 weeks)

  • Thrombocyte Values

    Baseline; Weeks 4, 12, end of treatment (up to 99.6 weeks) and 6 months after end of treatment (up to 123.6 weeks)

  • Leukocyte Values

    Baseline; Weeks 4, 12, end of treatment (up to 99.6 weeks) and 6 months after end of treatment (up to 123.6 weeks)

  • Hemoglobin Values

    Baseline; Weeks 4, 12, end of treatment (up to 99.6 weeks) and 6 months after end of treatment (up to 123.6 weeks)
