Arm Description

Dual-therapy with a response-guided treatment duration with Alisporivir 200 mg twice daily (BID) and Ribavirin (RBV) for 12 or 24 weeks (Treatment period 1). Patients who were considered treatment failures were to be treated with peg-IFNα2a/RBV 800 mg daily for 24 weeks in Treatment period 2 (Roll-over treatment arm).

Dual-therapy with a response-guided treatment duration with Alisporivir 300mg BID and RBV for 12 or 24 weeks (Treatment period 1). Patients who were considered treatment failures were to be treated with peg-IFNα2a/RBV 800 mg daily for 24 weeks in Treatment period 2 (Roll-over treatment arm).

Dual-therapy with a response-guided treatment duration with Alisporivir 400 mg BID and RBV for 12 or 24 weeks (Treatment period 1). Patients who were considered treatment failures were to be treated with peg-IFNα2a/RBV 800 mg daily for 24 weeks in Treatment period 2 (Roll-over treatment arm).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Viral load drop from baseline through Week 12
Percentage of participants who developed confirmed Stage II or greater hypertension (SBP ≥ 160 mmHg or DBP ≥ 100 mmHg
Change in platelet count from baseline through Week 12.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of participants with Sustained Virologic Response at Week 12 follow-up (SVR12)
