Telaprevir/Peg-IFN/RBV
15 subjects received Telaprevir in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. Telaprevir: Fifteen subjects received the same treatment: 12 weeks of telaprevir (750 mg q8h) with Peg-IFN- alfa-2a (Pegasys(R)) (180 mcg SQ qwk) and RBV (1200 mg per day if \>75 kg or 1000mg per day if \< 75 kg).
