Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of TMC435 compared
with placebo in patients who are infected with genotype 1 hepatitis C virus who relapsed
after previous interferon-based therapy. Patients will also receive peginterferon alfa-2a and
ribavirin as part of their treatment.
