Evaluating the Effectiveness of Boceprevir, Pegylated-Interferon Alfa 2b and Ribavirin in Treating Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection in Adults With HIV and HCV Infection

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a leading cause of death and illness in people with HIV-1. Currently, the standard treatment for people with HIV-1 and HCV coinfection includes two drugs—pegylated-interferon alfa 2b (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of giving boceprevir (BOC) together with standard treatment in treating HCV infection in people with HIV-1 and HCV coinfection.
