Debio 025 at daily doses of 1000 or 60 mg demonstrates an additive anti-HCV effect in combination with Peg-IFNa-2 was well tolerated and the majority of reported adverse events were known side effects of alpha interferons.
 
Debio 025 in daily doses of 200 or 600 mg in combination with PegIFNa-2 was well tolerated and the majority of reported adverse events were known side effects of alpha interferons.
 
Isolated hyperbilirubinaemias, was the most important dose-limiting adverse event, which occurred only during treatment with 1000 mg of Debio 025.
