Daclatasvir Plus Peginterferon and Ribavirin Is Noninferior to Peginterferon and Ribavirin Alone, and Reduces the Duration of Treatment for HCV Genotype 2 or 3 Infection

Twelve or 16 weeks of treatment with daclatasvir, in combination with peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin, is a well tolerated and effective therapy for patients with HCV genotype 2 or 3 infections. Daclatasvir-containing regimens could reduce the duration of therapy for these patients. Clinicaltrials.gov number: NCT01257204.
