Purpose
The study is designed as a retrospective data review of medical records from participants selected from specialist secondary and tertiary care centers across the United Kingdom (UK), specializing in Hepatitis C treatment. The study is non-interventional and is designed to identify subgroups of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) genotype 1 participants in the 'real world', including the relation between subgroup characteristics and treatment responsiveness.

| Official Title: | Retrospective Data Study of HCV Genotype 1 Patients in the UK Treated With ViraferonPeg and Rebetol |
- Participants With Treatment Success [ Time Frame: Data will be collected from the start of first exposure to pegylated interferon alfa-2b and ribavirin combination therapy. Participants who have successfully completed treatment will have data collected for a follow-up period of at least 24 weeks. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Identify subgroups of genotype 1 participants to better understand factors affecting response rates & treatment outcomes & to provide predictive models of refractory or responsive phenotypes to aid in HCV treatment, management, & drug development. Treatment success is defined as those who had achieved sustained virological response (i.e. undetectable viraemia 24 weeks post therapy completion).

Detailed Description:
Physicians will record information (from the time of first exposure to pegylated interferon alfa-2b and ribavirin) from the medical notes of participants who fit the inclusion criteria. To prevent selection bias, data are to be taken from the latest consecutive, unique participants seen by the physician over the previous 48 months. This provides a method of random sampling from a physician practice.

| Sampling Method: | Probability Sample |
Participants with genotype 1 HCV infection who have been treated with pegylated interferon alfa-2b and ribavirin in the preceding 48 months at sites in the UK.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Participants with genotype 1 HCV infection who have been treated with pegylated interferon alfa-2b and ribavirin in the preceding 48 months will be included. They will be divided into:
- Completer participants: Patients with a diagnosis of HCV genotype 1 who have completed a course of interferon alfa-2b and ribavirin, with no prior treatment for HCV (ie, previously treatment naïve). Completer participants must have at least 24 weeks of follow up data available post completion of treatment to ensure ability to assess SVR rates.
- Early terminators: Participants who have terminated treatment early due to adverse events or other reasons (ie, exposure is incomplete).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Participants currently undergoing therapy and therefore have not terminated treatment, ie, exposure is still ongoing.
- Co-infected HCV participants (eg, human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] or hepatitis B virus [HBV]).
- Participants who received their first HCV treatment in relation to a clinical trial.
