Study Summary

The presence of insulin resistance (IR) appears to be a key factor in the development of steatosis and disease progression in patience with Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype-1 infections similar to levels in Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The objective of this study is to determine whether Pioglatizone, when given along with Interferon and Ribavirin, reduces insulin resistance and lowers HCV viral levels and improved response in patients who have HCV genotype-1 infection when compared to a placebo.
