A Phase 1 Study of MP-424, Peginterferon Alfa 2b, and Ribavirin in Hepatitis C

April 16, 2014 updated by: Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation

A Phase I, Open-Label, Two-Arm Study of MP-424 in Combination With Peginterferon Alfa 2b and Ribavirin in Patients With Genotype 1b Hepatitis C

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, HCV RNA kinetics, and other viral characteristics after administration of two arms of MP-424 in combination with Peginterferon Alfa 2b (PEG-IFN-a-2b) and Ribavirin (RBV) to patients with chronic hepatitis C.
