Summary

INDICATION:

Patients with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1 and non-responders to standard treatment for hepatitis C.

OBJECTIVES:

2. To know the response rate in 12 weeks
3. Describe the tolerance and safety of thalidomide in combination with peginterferon and ribavirin.

DESIGN OF TEST Pilot Study:

The single arm study will:

1\. Thalidomide 200 mg and peg-interferon alfa 2b (based on weight: 50-120 mcg / week) + ribavirin (based on weight: 1000-1200mg / day)
