Brief Summary: Study the effectiveness of telaprevir (VX-950) in combination with Pegylated Interferon Alfa 2a (Peg-IFN-alfa-2a) and Ribavirin (RBV) in reducing plasma hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) levels

Exclusion Criteria:

* Received any approved or investigational drug or drug regimen for the treatment of hepatitis C
* Any medical contraindications to Pegylated Interferon Alfa 2a or Ribavirin therapy
* Any other cause of significant liver disease in addition to hepatitis C; this may include but is not limited to, hepatitis B, drug or alcohol-related cirrhosis, autoimmune hepatitis, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis or primary biliary cirrhosis

B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patient has chronic HCV infection genotype 1 with HCV RNA level \> 1,000 IU/mL
* Patients should not have had any previous treatment for hepatitis C
* Patient must have documentation of a liver biopsy within 2 years before the screening visit or the patient must agree to have a biopsy performed within the screening period
* Patients with cirrhosis should have serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) \<= 50 ng/mL. If AFP \> 50 ng/mL, absence of a mass must be demonstrated by ultrasound within the screening period
* A female patient of childbearing potential and a nonvasectomized male patient who has a female partner of childbearing potential must agree to the use of 2 effective methods of birth control from screening until 6 months (female patient) or 7 months (male patient) after the last dose of RBV.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patient is infected or co-infected with HCV of another genotype than genotype 1 and/or patient is infected with more than one genotype subtype
* Patient has a pre-existing psychiatric condition
* Patient has history of decompensated liver disease or shows evidence of significant liver disease in addition to hepatitis C
* Patient has human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infection
* Patient has active malignant disease or history of malignant disease within the past 5 years (with the exception of treated basal cell carcinoma).
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Chronically infected with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) genotype 1
* Treatment naive or treatment non-responders or treatment intolerant; and not co-infected with HIV or Hepatitis B Virus
* HCV RNA viral load of ≥10\*5 IU/mL
* BMI 18 to 35kg/m²

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any significant acute or chronic medical illness which is not stable or is not controlled with medication and not consistent with Hepatitis C Virus infection
* HIV and/or HBV positive
* Major surgery within 4 weeks of study drug administration and any gastrointestinal surgery that could impact the absorption of study drug

WOCBP will be enrolled as in-patient for 16 days
D: Inclusion criteria:

1. Chronic hepatitis C infection, diagnosed by positive anti-HCV antibodies and detected HCV RNA at screening in addition to:

   1. positive anti-HCV antibodies or detected HCV RNA at least 6 months prior to screening; or,
   2. liver biopsy consistent with chronic HCV infection.
2. HCV genotype 1 infection confirmed by genotypic testing at screening.
3. Therapy-naïve to interferon, pegylated interferon, ribavirin or any antiviral / immunomodulatory drug for acute or chronic HCV infection.
4. HCV RNA = 1,000 IU/mL at screening
5. Documentation of a liver biopsy within 3 years or fibroscan within 6 months prior to randomization.

   Note: If cirrhosis has been previously demonstrated on a biopsy, then biopsies obtained more than 3 years before randomization need not be repeated. Biopsies may be waived for patients who would be placed at risk from the procedure. Inability to do a liver biopsy in patients at risk for the procedure should not exclude such patients from a trial.
6. Age 18 to 70 years
7. Female patients:

   1. with documented hysterectomy,
   2. who have had both ovaries removed,
   3. with documented tubal ligation,
   4. who are post-menopausal with last menstrual period at least 12 months prior to screening, or
   5. of childbearing potential with a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and Day 1, that, if sexually active, agree to use one of the appropriate medically accepted methods of birth control from the date of screening until 7 months after the last dose of ribavirin in addition to the consistent and correct use of a condom. Patients must agree not to breast-feed at any time from the date of screening until 7 months after the last dose of ribavirin.

   Medically accepted methods of contraception for females in this trial are ethinyl estradiol containing contraceptives, diaphragm with spermicide substance and intra-uterine device.

   Male patients:
   1. who are documented to be sterile, or
   2. who are without pregnant female partner(s) and consistently and correctly use a condom while their female partner(s) (if of child-bearing potential) use one of the appropriate medically accepted methods of birth control from the date of screening until 7 months after the last dose of ribavirin. It is in the responsibility of the male patient to ensure that his partner(s) is not pregnant prior to screening into the study or becomes pregnant during the treatment and the observation phase. Female partners of childbearing potential should perform monthly pregnancy tests from the date of screening until 7 months after the last dose of ribavirin (tests will be provided by the sponsor).
8. Signed informed consent form prior to trial participation

Exclusion criteria:

1. HCV infection of mixed genotype (1/2, 1/3, and 1/4) diagnosed by genotypic testing at screening
2. Evidence of acute or chronic liver disease due to causes other than chronic HCV infection. Incidental steatosis diagnosed by biopsy is not an exclusion criterion.
3. HIV co-infection
4. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection based on presence of HBs-Ag
5. Active malignancy, or history of malignancy within the last 5 years prior to screening (with an exception of appropriately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the uterine cervix)
6. Active or, history of alcohol or illicit drug abuse other than cannabis within the past 12 months
7. A condition that is defined as one which in the opinion of investigator may put the patient at risk because of participation in this study, may influence the results of this study, or limit the patients ability to participate in this study
8. Usage of any investigational drugs within 30 days prior to screening, or planned usage of an investigational drug during the course of this study.
9. Received concomitant systemic antiviral, hematopoietic growth factor, or immunomodulatory treatment within 30 days prior to randomization. Patients being treated with oral antivirals such as acyclovir, famciclovir or valacyclovir for recurrent herpes simplex infection; or with oseltamivir or zanamivir for influenza A infection, may be screened.
10. Received silymarin (milk thistle), glycyrrhizin, or Sho-saiko-to (SST) within 28 days prior to randomization and throughout the treatment phase of this trial.
11. Known hypersensitivity to any ingredient of the study drugs.
12. Alpha fetoprotein value \> 100 ng/mL at screening; if \> 20 ng/mL and = 100 ng/mL, patients may be included if there is no evidence of liver cancer in an appropriate imaging study (e.g., ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI) within last 6 months prior to randomization (Visit 2).

Other exclusion criteria related to pegylated interferon and/or ribavirin restrictions are not listed here.
