• Study description:
  This will be an observational study of the routine clinical management of patients infected with Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC) genotype-1. Primary data collection on physicians treating CHC and patients infected with CHC will be performed in approximately 4 European countries (the exact number and final selection of countries will depend on market uptake of Victrelis™(Boceprevir). This study is not intended to change the patient/physician relationship, nor influence the physician’s drug prescription or therapeutic management of the patient. Physicians that treat CHC will provide aggregated site level information about current patterns of CHC treatment via a drug utilization questionnaire. Baseline patient information and data on the occurrence, clinical management of protocol-defined HOIs (anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, rash) will be collected via eCRF among patients initiating Victrelis in combination with P-R, Incivo in combination with P-R or P-R only regimens. Data will be collected every 8 weeks for up to 48 weeks of treatment.
