Lead-in phase
• Improvement of triple therapy effectiveness ?
• Prediction of triple therapy effectiveness ?
New molecules: new challenges
• Improvement of SVR but :
- Resistant variants occurrence
- New or higher rate of side effects
- Cost of PIs (±EPO).

Reclassement of treatment-experienced patients (RESPOND-2)
Viral load decline at W4 of lead in
Testing tolerance with PEG+Riba prior initiating triple therapy
• Dosage adjustment of PEG+Riba according to tolerance (hematological toxicity)
• Initiating growth factors prior to triple therapy
Conclusion
Lead in phase
Selection of patientseligible for PEG+RBV(naive RVR patients)
Shorter treatment duration
with boceprevir
Reclassement of tt-experienced patients
Highly predictive in nul responders(VL decline<1log)
