What was measured

The assigned dose in the DB Phase of peginterferon alfa-2a was 180 micrograms (µg). For peginterferon dose modification, downward adjustments in one-level increments were considered. The lowest dose of peginterferon alfa-2a that was allowed to be administered was 45 µg. When dose adjustment was required for moderate to severe adverse reactions (clinical and/or laboratory), an initial dose reduction to 135 µg was generally adequate. In some cases, a dose reduction to 90 µg or 45 µg was necessary. Dose increases toward the original dose were considered when the adverse reaction was resolved.

Analysis population: ITT Population. One participant could have had more than one dose reduction.

Groups in this outcome

Placebo+Antiviral Therapy: DB Phase

Participants completing the OL Phase were administered matching placebo tablets QD in combination with antiviral therapy (peginterferon alfa-2b and ribavirin) for a duration of either 24 or 48 weeks (for participants with Genotype 2/3) or 48 weeks (for participants with Non-Genotype 2/3).

Eltrombopag+Antiviral Therapy: DB Phase

Participants completing the OL Phase continued on the same dose of eltrombopag received in the OL Phase (dose that effectively raised platelets to \>=100 Gi/L) in combination with antiviral therapy (peginterferon alfa-2b and ribavirin) for a duration of either 24 or 48 weeks (for participants with Genotype 2/3) or 48 weeks (for participants with Non-Genotype 2/3).
