Peginterferon Alfa-2a Plus Ribavirin Plus Amantadine for the Treatment of Hepatitis C Infected Patients
Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial of a Triple Therapy Combining Peginterferon Alfa-2a Plus Ribavirin Plus Amantadine Versus Peginterferon Alfa-2a Plus Ribavirin Plus Placebo in Hepatitis C-Infected Patients Non Responders to a First-Line Therapy of Interferon and Ribavirin

Response to a second-line anti-HCV treatment in non responder patients to a first-line dual therapy remains very poor. Preliminary studies of amantadine suggest that this drug could be potentially effective to treat hepatitis C.

Background : Response to a second-line anti-HCV treatment in non responder patients to a first-line dual therapy remains very poor. Preliminary studies of amantadine suggest that this drug could be potentially effective to treat hepatitis C.

Design : randomized, double-blind, multicenter trial.

Interventions compared : Peg-interferon alfa 2A + ribavirin + amantadine versus Peg-interferon alfa 2A + ribavirin + Placebo

Eligibility criteria : Chronic hepatitis C, previously treated with combination of interferon plus ribavirin for at least 24 weeks,detectable HCV RNA.

primary outcome : sustained virological response, defined as an undetectable HCV RNA level 24 weeks after the end of anti HCV treatment.
