I would like the 12 weeks without riba.....but its a roll of the dice... best of luck to us
sorry, I meant sofosbuvir and 5885 of course
I have also just started this study - but here in the UK it's 12 or 24 wks w or without Riba. I got the GS5885 for 12 wks with Riba. Happy to compare notes. where are you based and which arm did you get? I too am 1a treatment naive; Hep C 30+ yrs. having a few nausea probs but figuring out what to eat for the best.
good luck

Thanks for encouragement. I have psoriasis and depression hx so interferon tx was never an option for me. I had this for over 37 years.... so im very thankful for this chance.

Your chances are excellent being treatment naive. I finished up the gilead 12 week study with GS5885 (ledipasvir)/sofosbuvir/riba 8 weeks ago. I finally went UND on this Study trial. This is my 4th attempt with the first 3 Tx attempts (with interferon) being failures. Please take advantage of this opportunity.
