Core Tip Approval of first generation hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease inhibitors has initiated a change in care of HCV infected patients. Phase 2 trials in HCV/human immunodeficiency virus coinfected patients have sug-gested improved efficacy and tolerability for regimens that combined pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) + ribavirin (RBV) with either boceprevir or telaprevir. We evaluated an HCV treatment regimen using a first generation HCV protease inhibitor (boceprevir) with PEG-IFN, and weight-based RBV in a phase 3 treatment trial, including HCV treatment-na?ve and treatment-experienced coinfected subjects. While sustained viral response rates were low overall they did exceed historical PEG-IFN/RBV rates. Use of new interferon-free direct acting antiviral agents modalities in this population is indicated.
