The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness of long-term pegylated interferon alfa-2a (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin treatment in slowing liver disease progression in people infected with both HIV and HCV.', 'detailedDescription': 'Rapid progression of liver disease to liver failure has been observed in people coinfected with HIV and HCV. This observation appears to be directly related to an increase in the rate of fibrotic progression in the liver compared to people infected with HCV alone. PEG-IFN and ribavirin are used in standard treatment of HCV. This study tested the effectiveness of using PEG-IFN in reducing the rate of liver fibrosis progression in participants coinfected with HIV and HCV who could not lower their HCV viral load to undetectable or who could not maintain their HCV viral load at undetectable on PEG-IFN and ribavirin treatment.\n\nParticipants entered Step 1 (initial run-in period) to receive 12 weeks of 180 mcg PEG-IFN subcutaneously once weekly plus 1 to 1.2 g/day ribavirin based on body weight. At week 12, HCV RNA testing was performed.\n\nParticipants with early virologic response (EVR), defined as \\>=2 log10 drop in HCV RNA from baseline or undetectable HCV RNA (\\<600 IU/ml with quantitative assay used in Step 1) at Week 12, who had tolerated Step 1 treatment, entered into Step 3 to continue receiving the Step 1 treatment for a total of 72 weeks (Arm C). Participants who did not meet the criteria for entry into Step 3 were discontinued from the study. In Step 3, participants were followed for an additional 24 weeks after treatment discontinuation to determine sustained virologic response (SVR). Initially, Step 3 participants who had a detectable HCV viral load (\\>=60 IU/ml with the qualitative assay used in Step 3) at Week 36 were eligible to enroll in Step 2. After early closure of Step 2, such participants remained in Step 3 until study completion.\n\nParticipants with \\<2 log10 drop in HCV RNA from baseline and detectable HCV RNA at Week 12 (non-EVR) discontinued Step 1 treatment. Non-EVRs who met the Step 2 eligibility criteria, were enrolled in Step 2 and randomized to receive 180 mcg PEG-IFN subcutaneously weekly for 72 weeks (Arm A) or observation for 72 weeks (Arm B). Participants who did not meet the criteria for entry into Step 2 were discontinued from the study. Step 2 of the study was closed prematurely in May 2007 due to lower than expected progression rates among the participants in the observation arm such that the primary objective could not be reached. There were no safety concerns.\n\nLiver biopsies were conducted at study screening, and at Step 2 entry and exit until the early closure of Step 2. Medical history assessment, physical exams, and blood collection were conducted every 4-12 weeks for participants in Steps 1, 2, and 3. Participants were followed for up to 18 weeks in Step 1, followed by a total of 72 in Step 2 or by up to a total of 84 weeks in Step 3.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria for Step 1:\n\n* HIV infected\n* Stable antiretroviral therapy for at least 8 weeks prior to study entry OR have not received any antiretroviral therapy for at least 4 weeks prior to entry\n* HIV viral load less than 50,000 copies/ml within 6 weeks prior to study entry\n* CD4 count greater than 200 cells/mm\\^3 within 6 weeks prior to study entry\n* Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected\n* Either HCV treatment naive OR previously treated with interferon (IFN), PEG-IFN, IFN and ribavirin, or PEG-IFN and ribavirin for at least 12 weeks and HCV RNA positive following their last course of HCV treatment\n* Chronic liver disease consistent with chronic viral hepatitis\n* At least stage I fibrosis on a liver biopsy obtained within 104 weeks of study entry\n* If at stage VI fibrosis, Child-Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) score of 5 or less and no more than Child-Pugh Class A\n* Liver enzyme (alanine aminotransferase \\[ALT\\], aspartate aminotransferase \\[AST\\], and alkaline phosphatase) levels 10 times or less than upper limit of normal\n* Agree to use acceptable methods of contraception\n\nInclusion Criteria for Step 2:\n\n* Currently enrolled in Step 1 or received 12 weeks of PEG-IFN plus ribavirin outside this study\n* Detectable HCV viral load and \\<2 log10 decrease from baseline in plasma/serum HCV viral load at Week 12.\n* On Step 1 study treatment for no longer than 18 weeks\n\nInclusion Criteria for Step 3:\n\n* Currently enrolled in Step 1\n* Undetectable HCV RNA or a 2-log or greater decrease in plasma/serum HCV viral load.\n* On Step 1 study treatment for no longer than 18 weeks\n\nExclusion Criteria for Steps 1 and 3:\n\n* Have received HCV treatment within 4 weeks of study entry.
