Title: A Phase 3, Safety and Efficacy Study of Boceprevir in Previously Untreated Subjects With Chronic Hepatitis C Genotype 1
Brief Summary: This study involves treatment with boceprevir or placebo in combination with PegIntron (PEG) + Ribavirin (RBV) (weight-based dosing \[WBD\]) in previously untreated adult participants with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1. It is hypothesized that the addition of a third active anti- Hepatitis C Virus (anti-HCV) drug may lead to more rapid viral response than therapy with two drugs, and therefore, the addition of boceprevir to PegIntron plus ribavirin therapy after a 4-week lead-in period may allow for both increased rates of sustained virologic response (SVR) and shorter treatment durations (in some populations) than treatment with PegIntron plus ribavirin alone.

The study includes two separate cohorts, Cohort I (White participants) and Cohort II (Black participants). Participants from each cohort are assigned (randomized) to one of three study arms, all of which have a 4-week lead-in period with (PEG + RBV).


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Must have chronic hepatitis C infection as evidenced by liver biopsy, anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) and HCV RNA positive
* Must have chronic hepatitis C infection (genotype 1) with HCV RNA level greater than10000 IU/mL
* Patient must have failed at least 1 prior course of peg interferon (Peg-IFN-alfa-2a)/ribavirin (RBV) therapy (standard treatment)
* Must be willing to use 2 effective methods of birth control for up to 7 months after last dose of study medication

Exclusion Criteria:

* Has an evidence of decompensated liver disease
* Co-infection with any other Hepatitis C virus genotype or co-infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
* Has a medical condition which is a contraindication to Peg-INF or RBV therapy
* Have had history of, or any current medical condition which could impact the safety of the patient in the study
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Females must be practicing specific forms of birth control on study treatment, or be post-menopausal for more than 2 years or surgically sterile
* Chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1b-infection (HCV RNA level greater than or equal to 10,000 IU/mL at screening)
* Subject has never received antiviral treatment for hepatitis C infection
* No evidence of liver cirrhosis

Exclusion Criteria:

* Significant liver disease with any cause other than HCV as the primary cause
* Positive hepatitis B surface antigen or anti-human immunodeficiency virus antibody
* Positive screen for drugs or alcohol
* Significant sensitivity to any drug
* Use of contraindicated medications within 2 weeks of dosing
* Abnormal laboratory tests

Inclusion Criteria:

* Subjects chronically infected with HCV genotype 1
* Subjects with compensated cirrhosis
* HCV RNA ≥ 10,000 IU/mL at screening
* Treatment-naïve subjects with no previous exposure to an interferon formulation (ie, IFNα, pegIFNα), Ribavirin (RBV), or HCV Direct Acting Antivirals (DAA) (protease, polymerase inhibitor, etc.)
* Treatment-experienced subjects are eligible including exposure to anti-HCV agents of a mechanistic class other than those contained in the Daclatasvir (DCV) / Asunaprevir (ASV) /BMS-791325 triple regimen is permitted. Examples of permitted agents include, but are not limited to nucleoside/nucleotide inhibitors of nonstructural protein 5B (NS5B) polymerase, inhibitors of cyclophilin, or inhibitors of microRNA.

Exclusion Criteria:

D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Participant must have previously documented CHC genotype 1 infection.
* Participant must have a liver biopsy with histology consistent with CHC and no other etiology.
* Participants with bridging fibrosis or cirrhosis must have an ultrasound within 6 months of the Screening Visit (or between Screening and Day 1) with no findings suspicious for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
* Participant must be \>=18 years of age.
* Participant must weigh between 40 kg and 125 kg.
* Participant and participant's partner(s) must each agree to use acceptable methods of contraception for at least 2 weeks prior to Day 1 and continue until at least 6 months after last dose of study drug, or longer if dictated by local regulations.
* Participants must be willing to give written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Coinfection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or hepatitis B virus (HBsAg positive).
* Participants who received prior treatment for hepatitis C; other than herbal remedies, except those with known hepatotoxicity.
* Treatment with any investigational drug within 30 days of the randomization visit in this study.
* Participation in any other clinical trial within 30 days of randomization or intention to participate in another clinical trial during participation in this study.
* Evidence of decompensated liver disease including, but not limited to, a history or presence of clinical ascites, bleeding varices, or hepatic encephalopathy.
* Diabetic and/or hypertensive participants with clinically significant ocular examination findings: retinopathy, cotton wool spots, optic nerve disorder, retinal hemorrhage, or any other clinically significant abnormality.
* Pre-existing psychiatric condition(s).
* Clinical diagnosis of substance abuse of the specified drugs within the specified timeframes.
* Any known pre-existing medical condition that could interfere with the participant's participation in and completion of the study.
* Evidence of active or suspected malignancy, or a history of malignancy, within the last 5 years (except adequately treated carcinoma in situ and basal cell carcinoma of the skin). Participants under evaluation for malignancy are not eligible.
* Participants who are pregnant or nursing. Participants who intend to become pregnant during the study period. Male participants with partners who are, or intend to become, pregnant during the study period.
* Any other condition which, in the opinion of a physician, would make the participant unsuitable for enrollment or could interfere with the participant participating in and completing the study.
* Participants who are part of the site personnel directly involved with this study.
* Participants who are family members of the investigational study staff.
