Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Genotype I
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of HM10660A in subjects with chronic hepatitis C(HCV).
Detailed description
* To evaluate the repeat-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of HM10660A when given by weekly, biweekly, and monthly subcutaneous (SC) injection. * To evaluate the repeat-dose pharmacodynamics (PD) of HM10660A when given by weekly, biweekly, and monthly SC injection. * To explore the antiviral activity of HM10660A at Week 4, Week 12, and Week 24.
Interventions
180 mcg Pegasys SC once weekly
