Hepatitis C Support Group

Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is spread by blood-to-blood contact with an infected person's blood. Many people with HCV infection have no symptoms and are unaware of the need to seek treatment. Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.

Here's the link:

http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01687257?term=NCT01687257&rank=1

It lists trial locations and a contact number. None of the locations are near you but I'd contact them anyway the information on clinicaltrials.gov is not always 100% accurate.

Thrilled to see the trial - Hang in there Levich - apply and see what happens - It is wonderful to see someone is starting to branch out from Tx naive. And it is discouraging to read treatment naive ALL the time. Good luck to everyone that wants in.
