Safety Study of Pegylated Interferon Lambda Plus Single or 2 Direct Antiviral Agents With Ribavirin (D-LITE)

September 23, 2015 updated by: Bristol-Myers Squibb

A Phase 2B, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Pegylated Interferon Lambda (BMS-914143) Administered With Ribavirin Plus a Single Direct Antiviral Agent (BMS-790052 or BMS-650032) Versus Pegasys Administered With Ribavirin (Part A) and of Pegylated Interferon Lambda (BMS-914143) Administered With or Without Ribavirin Plus 2 Direct Antiviral Agents (BMS-790052 and BMS-650032) (Part B) in Chronic Hepatitis C Genotype-1 Treatment naïve Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine if combination therapy with Pegylated Interferon Lambda (BMS-914143) plus Ribavirin (RBV) with a single direct antiviral agent (BMS-790052 or BMS-650032) for 24 weeks is effective and safe for treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC) compared to current standard therapy with Pegylated Interferon Alpha-2a plus RBV for 48 weeks.
