HOPE IT'S TRUE:

 

From this website:  http://www.hepctrust.org.uk/Treatment/Potential+New+Drugs/Telaprevir+Incivo+Incivek

Treatment Naive patients – those who have never tried treatment before
Prior relapse patients – those who have previously responded to treatment but then relapsed

If the virus is undetectable at week 4 and also undetectable at week 12:
  • The total duration of treatment will be 24 weeks
  • Interferon, Ribavarin and Telaprevir will be taken up until week 12
  • Interferon and Ribavarin will be taken for a further 12 weeks
